What it does

When an agent has edited code as part of a larger migration or patch run, this skill gathers those changes into a standard diff file and a plain-language per-file summary. It then presents a choice (accept all, reject all, or accept partially) so you decide what stays. Your decision is saved in a small decision file, and rejected changes are rolled back using git.

Great for

  • Developers reviewing agent-made code migrations before they are kept
  • Teams that want a human sign-off step on automated patches
  • People running the open-design project's code-migration workflow

Skip it if

  • Solo quick edits where a normal git diff and commit review is enough, since this adds a multi-file workflow
  • Repositories where you do not want the agent running git restore, because rejection rolls back files and can discard work if the patch boundary is wrong

Try asking

  • “Review the changes from the last migration run and let me accept or reject them per file”
  • “Show me a diff summary of what the patch run changed before anything is committed”
  • “Partially accept the patch: keep the changes to the config files but reject the rest”

    No special command needed — the agent reads the skill's description and loads it when your request matches. Try one of the prompts above.

Get better results

  • Make sure your repository is committed or backed up before accepting or rejecting a patch, since rollback affects working files.
  • Use partial decisions for large patches so you can review each file separately.
  • Check the generated review/summary.md before choosing accept to confirm the scope matches plan/steps.json.
