Follow these steps in order for every review:

1. **Gather context.** Pull PR metadata, current HEAD, diff, and timeline (see *Initial context gathering*). Read the base-branch source around each change.
|

2. **Discover repository guidance.** Read the base checkout's `AGENTS.md` and `CONTRIBUTING.md`. Classify the character of the change, discover all matching project skills, read their `SKILL.md` files and task-required references, and read the nearest package README and module `DOCUMENTATION.md` files (see *Repository guidance discovery*).

3. **Build the timeline.** Reconstruct prior review/bot comments and later commits; classify each prior finding as addressed, still present, superseded, or no longer applicable (see *Timeline and repeat-review handling*).
|
||||
4. **Evaluate the contribution contract.** Verify that the PR explains its intent and scope and provides current, proportionate validation and visual/runtime evidence (see *Contribution quality and evidence*).
|
||||
5. **Analyze correctness and risk.** Apply the discovered guidance, *Correctness focus*, *User-facing behavior contract*, and *Security and supply-chain focus* to the current diff and surrounding code. Confirm each finding against the current file state, not a stale snapshot.
