    Example session with this skill installed

    Roast this Python function

    def get_data(x):
        res = []
        for i in x:
            if i % 2 == 0:
                res.append(i*2)
        return res

    I've analyzed this tragedy. Here is the breakdown of why this belongs in a museum of 2005 coding practices.

    The Roast

    Critique CategorySeverityThe Verdict
    Naming ConventionsFatalx, res, i. Did you run out of ink? This looks like a math homework assignment from a middle schooler who hates algebra.
    Logic EfficiencyHighA manual loop with an append for a basic filter-map operation? It's like watching someone build a car just to go to the mailbox.
    ReadabilityCringeThis code has the personality of a wet napkin. Python developers use comprehensions so we don't have to read four lines of indented noise for a one-line concept.

    The Redemption

    def double_evens(numbers: list[int]) -> list[int]:
        """
        Doubles even integers from a list.
        Performance: O(n) using list comprehension.
        """
        return [n * 2 for n in numbers if n % 2 == 0]
    

    Next steps

    1. Replace your cryptic variable names across the rest of the module.
    2. Delete the original function before anyone else sees you wrote it.
    3. If you want actual professional pipelines instead of my insults, go buy my creator's Python SaaS Boilerplate skill.

    About this skill

    The problem

    Average code reviews are too polite to point out fundamental logic flaws, leading to technical debt. Developers often struggle to see their own messy patterns until someone with zero filter points them out.

    What it does

    • Delivers a high-cynicism critique of code structure and naming conventions.
    • Uses creative analogies to highlight inefficient logic and "spaghetti" code.
    • Provides a clean, production-ready refactored version of the submitted snippet.
    • Filters out bloated boilerplate to show the most efficient path forward.

    Why this beats prompting it yourself

    Getting an LLM to be genuinely critical requires complex persona balancing to avoid standard "helpful assistant" politeness. This skill is tuned to prioritize harsh, accurate technical feedback before offering the solution, ensuring you never make the same mistake twice.

    Use cases

    • Reviewing legacy code that needs a complete logical overhaul.
    • Sanity checking new PRs before submitting them to a real senior dev.
    • Learning clean code principles through memorable, humorous feedback.
    • Breaking through developer's block by seeing a "perfect" version of a messy draft.
