AI PR Review Kit
Blockers-first review for AI-written pull requests — checklists, paste-ready comments and a read-only reviewer agent.
Agent-written PRs look finished. The problems hide in deleted guards, loosened tests, invented packages and drive-by refactors. This kit is the deeper pack behind our free guide: copy the Markdown into your repo and use it on the next agent PR.
What's included
- CHECKLIST-5-MIN.md — auth/tenant, secrets, hallucinated APIs, tests that still fail when code is wrong, scope creep
- CHECKLIST-FULL.md — Security, Correctness, Tests, Architecture, Dependencies (merge blockers, not nits)
- FAILURE-FAMILIES.md — six AI-specific families with diff tells, review questions and paste-ready comments
- 12 copy-paste prompts for Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot and Codex (fresh-context reviews)
- Read-only pr-reviewer in both
.claude/agents/and.cursor/agents/formats - Cursor .mdc rule, short
AGENTS.mdsnippet and GitHub PR template with AI + proof section

What this is not
- Not a security audit, penetration test or compliance certification.
- Not auto-merge and not a substitute for human judgment.
- Not enforcement: rules and agents are guidance agents can still ignore.
- Not stack-specific policy files for one framework only.
- No fake stats, review counts or guaranteed bug-catch rates.

Questions
What is in the ZIP?
CHECKLIST-5-MIN.md, CHECKLIST-FULL.md, FAILURE-FAMILIES.md with six paste-ready PR comments, 12 review prompts, a read-only pr-reviewer agent in both .claude/agents and .cursor/agents formats, a Cursor .mdc rule, an AGENTS.md snippet, a GitHub pull request template, README and NOT-INCLUDED.md.
How is this different from the free guide?
The free guide at /blog/review-ai-generated-pull-requests/ is the 10-step overview. This kit is the paste-ready pack: failure-family PR comments, dual-format reviewer agents, prompts, rules and a PR template.
Which tools does it work with?
Any team reviewing PRs from Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Codex or similar. Prompts are plain text. The reviewer agent ships in Claude Code and Cursor formats.
Will it catch every bug?
No. It is a blockers-first review aid, not a security audit and not auto-merge. Humans stay responsible for the merge decision.
Do I need your other kits?
No. It stands alone. The Config Kit covers instruction-file templates; the Subagent Pack has a broader set of Claude Code subagents.
Can I get a refund?
30-day money-back guarantee: if it doesn't help, email [email protected] for a full refund.
