caveman-review
Ultra-compressed code review comments. Cuts noise from PR feedback while preserving the actionable signal. Each comment is one line: location, problem, fix. Use when user says "review this PR", "code review", "review the diff", "/review", or invokes /caveman-review. Auto-triggers when reviewing pull requests.

"This is just a suggestion but..." — use nit: instead "Great work!", "Looks good overall but..." — say it once at the top, not per comment Restating what the line does — the reviewer can read the diff Hedging ("perhaps", "maybe", "I think") — if unsure use q: Keep: Exact line numbers Exact symbol/function/variable names in backticks Concrete fix, not "consider refactoring this" The why if the fix isn't obvious from the problem statement Examples ❌ "I noticed that on line 42 you're not checking if the user object is null before accessing the email property.
