Code Review
This is a structured checklist that walks you through the main areas to cover during pull request reviews: functionality, code quality, testing, security, performance, and documentation. It's the kind of thing you'd want open in a browser tab when you're doing a review and need to make sure you're not missing anything obvious. The checklist hits the essentials without getting overly prescriptive, covering things like edge cases, hardcoded values, parameterized queries, and whether comments explain the "why" instead of the "what". Good for teams that want consistent reviews or for solo developers who want to be thorough before merging their own work.
