- description
- Delegation mode for open-code-review (OCR). Instead of OCR calling an LLM endpoint, this skill instructs the host agent to perform the code review itself, using OCR only for deterministic engineering: file selection and rule resolution. Use when the host agent should drive the review with its own LLM capabilities.
- license
- Apache-2.0
- compatibility
- Requires the `ocr` CLI installed (via `npm install -g @alibaba-group/open-code-review` or GitHub release binary). Does NOT require a configured LLM endpoint — delegation mode is LLM-free on the OCR side.

Open Code Review — Delegation Mode
A skill for performing AI code review where OCR provides deterministic engineering (file filtering, rule resolution) and the host agent performs the actual review using its own intelligence and tools.
Workflow
Step 1: Preview — Determine What to Review
ocr delegate preview --format json [--from <ref> --to <ref>] [--commit <hash>] [--exclude <patterns>]
This outputs:
- mode (workspace / range / commit)
- from / to / commit / merge_base — ref metadata for constructing git commands
- Reviewable file list — paths, status, insertions/deletions
- Excluded files — with exclusion reason
Common invocations:
Step 2: Get Rules for Files
ocr delegate rule --format json <path1> <path2> ...
Pass the reviewable file paths from Step 1. Output is grouped by rule content — files sharing the same rule appear under one group, avoiding repetition.
Step 3: Get Diffs
Choose the diff command using the mode and refs from Step 1. Use git --no-pager for every Git call during the review.
The diff commands disable external diff programs, text conversion, and color to produce plain patches.
Range mode (merge_base provided in preview output):
git --no-pager diff --no-ext-diff --no-textconv --no-color <merge_base>..<to> -- "<path>"
Commit mode:
git --no-pager show --no-ext-diff --no-textconv --no-color <commit> -- "<path>"
