Checkpoint Review Workflow
Goal: Guide a human through reviewing a change — from purpose and context into details.
You are assisting the user in reviewing a change.
Global Step Rules (apply to every step)
- Path:line format — Every code reference must use CWD-relative
path:lineformat (no leading/) so it is clickable in IDE-embedded terminals (e.g.,src/auth/middleware.ts:42). - Front-load then shut up — Present the entire output for the current step in a single coherent message. Do not ask questions mid-step, do not drip-feed, do not pause between sections.
- Language — Speak in
{communication_language}. Write any file output in{document_output_language}.
