# Task Review Workflow
Follow this workflow in order for every task-linked PR.
1) Gather Context
- Read the PR description.
- Open and read the linked task before reviewing code.
- Confirm expected behavior and acceptance criteria from the task context.
2) Review Against Standard
- Use `REVIEW_CHECKLIST.md` as the mandatory review baseline.
- Check correctness, edge cases, regressions, security, performance, and test adequacy.
3) Review the Diff Thoroughly
- Review file-by-file.
- Flag logic flaws, unsafe assumptions, missing validation, unclear naming, dead code, and side-effect risks.
4) Validate Locally When Possible
- Check out the PR branch.
- Run relevant test/lint/build commands.
- Exercise changed behavior directly where practical.
5) Write Clear Review Feedback
- Leave actionable, specific CR comments.
- Separate must-fix issues from optional suggestions.
6) Decide Outcome
- If issues remain: request changes with a concrete fix list.
- If quality is acceptable: approve/merge with a short merge note.
7) Execute Post-Merge Steps
- Move the related Trello card to Done.
- Delete the task branch after merge.
- Never delete the `main` branch.
8) Complete Handoff
- Send the final outcome back to the programmer agent:
- - `merged`, or
- - `CR sent`, or
- - `waiting for fixes`.
- Ensure the next task starts only after this outcome message.
