Code Review Checklist
A systematic checklist that walks you through code reviews across six areas: functionality, code quality, security, performance, tests, and documentation. It breaks down what to look for in each category with specific examples of good versus bad patterns, like catching SQL injection risks or spotting functions that do too much. The checklists are comprehensive enough that you could hand them to a junior developer and they'd know what to check, but experienced reviewers will find the structure useful for not missing edge cases. Honestly most valuable for establishing consistency across a team or when you're reviewing code outside your usual domain and want to make sure you're not skipping important checks.

How It Works
Step 1: Understand the Context
Before reviewing code, I'll help you understand:
- What problem does this code solve?
- What are the requirements?
- What files were changed and why?
- Are there related issues or tickets?
- What's the testing strategy?
Step 2: Review Functionality
Check if the code works correctly:
- Does it solve the stated problem?
- Are edge cases handled?
- Is error handling appropriate?
- Are there any logical errors?
- Does it match the requirements?
Step 3: Review Code Quality
