SOP: Code Review Workflow

What it does

Provides a production-ready Standard Operating Procedure for performing thorough code reviews. The SOP coordinates automated checks, parallel specialist reviews (code quality, security, performance, architecture, documentation), integration testing, deployment impact assessment, and a clear final approval workflow. It's designed to generate actionable, categorized feedback and a final decision within a 4-hour timeline.

When to use it

Invoke this SOP for pull requests that require multi-stakeholder review, especially complex or high-risk changes where security, performance, and architecture must be evaluated. Also useful as a template to automate review orchestration in agent-driven CI workflows.

What's included

• Scripts: none embedded (has_scripts=false) but includes example orchestration snippets and Task templates in the body.
• References: none bundled.
• Instructions: step-by-step phases (automated checks → specialized reviews → integration → final approval) with sample code blocks for orchestration and deliverables per phase.

Compatible agents

Best suited for code-review orchestrators and developer-assistant agents (Codex, Claude Code, Copilot-style agents) that can run or interpret the included task templates and integrate with CI tooling.
