name: crit-cli
description: Use when an agent needs to author or reply to crit inline comments programmatically (including multi-agent workflows commenting on shared code/plans/docs/proposals), publish or unpublish a crit review with crit share, sync a crit review to or from a GitHub PR or GitLab MR, or read/interpret a crit review JSON file. Covers crit comment, crit share, crit unpublish, crit pull, crit push, review file format, and resolution workflow. Not for invoking an interactive review loop — that's the `crit` skill.

# Crit CLI Reference
> If a plan was just written and the user said "crit" or "review", use the `$crit` skill instead — it covers the full review loop. This skill covers CLI operations like `crit comment`, `crit pull/push`, and `crit share`.
Comments have three scopes:
- **Line comments** (`scope: "line"`) — tied to specific lines, stored in `files.<path>.comments`
- **File comments** (`scope: "file"`) — about a file overall, stored in `files.<path>.comments` with `start_line: 0`
- **Review comments** (`scope: "review"`) — general feedback, stored in the top-level `review_comments` array
The review file path is shown by `crit status`.
## Reading comments
When `crit` completes a review round, read **stdout** and follow its instructions. Unresolved comments are often embedded in that prompt as JSON. Check **stderr** for `approved: true` or `approved: false`.
When you need to read comments separately:
```bash
crit comments # human-readable, unresolved only (default)
crit comments --json # flat JSON for agents
crit comments --all # include resolved comments
crit comments --plan <slug> # plan reviews
crit comments [path] # explicit review.json or .crit directory
```
Review-level comments are listed first — easy to miss in raw `review.json`. Uses the same review resolution as `crit comment` (`--output`, `--plan`, daemon session).
## Multiple active sessions
When more than one review session matches the current directory and branch, headless commands (`crit comment`, `crit comments`, `crit share`, `crit push`, `crit pull`) refuse to guess. Run `crit status` (or `crit status --json`) to list every active session, then target the intended review with `--session <id>`:
```bash
crit comment --session <id> --author <name> <path>:<line> <body>
crit comment --session <id> --json --file comments.json --author <name>
crit comments --session <id>
crit share --session <id> <file>
crit push --session <id>
crit pull --session <id>
```
The JSON status output exposes the candidates in `sessions`.
## Review file format
```json
{
"review_comments": [
{
"id": "r_f1e2d3",
"body": "Overall the architecture looks good",
"scope": "review",
"author": "User Name",
"resolved": false,
"replies": [
{ "id": "rp_b4a5c6", "body": "Thanks, addressed the minor issues", "author": "Codex" }
]
}
],
"files": {
"path/to/file.go": {
"comments": [
{
"id": "c_a1b2c3",
"start_line": 5,
"end_line": 10,
"body": "Comment text",
"quote": "the specific words selected",
"anchor": "The sessions table needs a complete rewrite...",
"author": "User Name",
"resolved": false,
"replies": [
{ "id": "rp_c7d8e9", "body": "Fixed by extracting to helper", "author": "Codex" }
]
}
]
}
}
}
```
Field rules:
- `resolved`: `false` or **missing** — both mean unresolved. Only `true` means resolved.
- `quote` (optional): the specific text the reviewer selected — narrows scope within the line range. Focus changes on the quoted text rather than the entire range.
- `anchor` (line comments): full text of the commented lines when placed. When edits shift line numbers, locate content by anchor rather than trusting `start_line`/`end_line`.
- `drifted: true`: original content was removed or heavily rewritten — line numbers are approximate at best.
- Unresolved comments may have `replies` — read them before acting.
## Authoring comments
```bash
# Review-level (general feedback)
crit comment --author 'Codex' '<body>'
# File-level (whole file, no line numbers)
crit comment --author 'Codex' <path> '<body>'
# Line (single line or range)
crit comment --author 'Codex' <path>:<line> '<body>'
crit comment --author 'Codex' <path>:<start>-<end> '<body>'
# Reply to an existing comment
crit comment --reply-to <id> --author 'Codex' '<body>'
```
Hard rules:
- **Always pass `--author 'Codex'`** so comments are attributed correctly.
- **Always single-quote the body** — double quotes break on backticks and shell metachars.
- **Line numbers reference the file on disk** (1-indexed), not diff line numbers.
- **Reply bodies support markdown** — use code fences and inline code where helpful.
- **Only pass `--resolve` when the user explicitly asks.** Never resolve proactively. Same rule applies to the `resolve` field in `--json` mode.
## Bulk commenting (3+ comments)
Use `--json` for atomicity (single write, no partial state) and speed (one process). The JSON can come from stdin or `--file <path>`:
```bash
# stdin — fine for short, single-line bodies:
echo '[
{"body": "overall feedback", "scope": "review"},
{"path": "session.go", "body": "restructure", "scope": "file"},
{"file": "src/auth.go", "line": 42, "body": "Missing null check"},
{"file": "src/auth.go", "line": "50-55", "body": "Extract to helper"},
{"reply_to": "c_a1b2c3", "body": "Fixed — added null check"},
{"reply_to": "r_f1e2d3", "body": "Done"}
]' | crit comment --json --author 'Codex'
```
**For multi-paragraph bodies, prefer `--file`.** A literal newline inside a `"body"` string breaks JSON parsing, and shell-quoted heredocs make this easy to introduce by accident. Write the JSON to a temp file (use your file-edit tool), then:
```bash
crit comment --json --file /tmp/crit-bulk.json --author 'Codex'
```
`--file -` is an explicit "read stdin" if you ever need it.
Per-entry schema:
| Field | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| `file` / `path` | string | line/file comments | Relative path. `path` alone (no `line`) → file-level. |
| `line` | int/string | line comments | `42` or `"45-47"` |
| `end_line` | int | optional | Defaults to `line` |
| `body` | string | always | |
| `author` | string | optional | Per-entry override; falls back to `--author` |
| `scope` | string | optional | `"review"` / `"file"` — usually inferred |
| `reply_to` | string | replies | Comment ID (`c_…` or `r_…`) |
| `resolve` | bool | optional | Only when user explicitly asks |
Scope inference (when `scope` omitted): has `reply_to` → reply; no `file`/`path` and no `line` → review-level; `path` but no `line` → file-level; `file`/`path` + `line` → line.
## Multi-file disambiguation
Comment IDs are unique per session, but the same ID can collide across files. If `crit comment` errors with "comment found in multiple files", disambiguate with `--path`:
```bash
crit comment --reply-to c_a1b2c3 --path src/auth.go --author 'Codex' 'Fixed the null check'
```
In `--json` mode, set the `file` field on the entry. Review-level IDs (`r_…`) are globally unique and never need this.
## Plan-mode comments
Plan reviews (via `crit plan` or the ExitPlanMode hook) store the review file in `~/.crit/plans/<slug>/`. **Always pass `--plan <slug>`** — without it, `crit comment` looks in the project root and won't find the comments. The slug is shown in the review feedback prompt.
```bash
crit comment --plan my-plan-2026-03-23 --reply-to c_a1b2c3 --author 'Codex' 'Updated the plan'
```
## GitHub PR / GitLab MR Integration
```bash
crit pull [number|url] # Fetch PR/MR review comments into the review file
crit push [--dry-run] [--event <type>] [-m <msg>] [n] # Post review comments to a PR/MR
crit pull --forge gitlab 42 # Force GitLab when auto-detect is ambiguous
```
Requires `gh` CLI installed and authenticated. PR number is auto-detected from the current branch.
`--event` values: `comment` (default), `approve`, `request-changes`. `-m` adds a review-level body message.
## Sharing
```bash
crit share <file> [file...] # Upload and print URL
crit share --share-url <url> <file> # Target a specific Crit deployment
crit share --qr <file> # Also print QR code (terminal only)
crit share --org <slug> <file> # Share under an organization
crit share --org <slug> --visibility unlisted <file> # Org share with explicit visibility
crit unpublish [file...] # Remove shared review
crit unpublish --share-url <url> [file...] # Unpublish from a specific deployment
```
- **Always relay the output** — copy the URL (and QR if used) into your response. Don't make the user dig through tool output.
- **`--qr` is terminal-only** — skip in mobile apps, web chat UIs, or anywhere Unicode block characters won't render correctly.
- **`--org <slug>`** shares under an organization. Visibility defaults to `organization` (members only). Override with `--visibility` (`organization`, `unlisted`, `public`).
- **`--share-url`** selects among configured `share_targets` (or overrides for one invocation). Required when multiple targets are configured and none is marked default. Empty `CRIT_SHARE_URL=` disables sharing for the process.
- If a review file exists, comments for the shared files are included automatically.
- **Unpublish uses the persisted delete token** in the review file — no extra args needed unless targeting a non-default deployment with `--share-url`.

description: "Author a crit story and continue the interactive review loop only when the user explicitly invokes $crit-story or directly asks you to generate a crit story. Do not infer this skill from generic review, PR, or diff-review requests."

# Author a crit story with `crit story`
This skill authors a story-mode overview, then enters the same interactive
review cycle as `/crit` (wait → address comments → next round). Invoke it
only when the user explicitly asks for story generation; do not infer it from
generic review, PR, or diff-review requests.
Primary path: author in-session with `--guide` / `--prep` / `--story-file`
(do **not** run bare `crit story`, which spends `agent_cmd` tokens), then run
bare `crit` to listen for Finish Review.
## Step 1: Fetch the guide
```bash
crit story --guide
```
This prints the resolved authoring guide (the user's customized version if
they have one — always invoke this at runtime rather than reusing this
skill's own prose) followed by `---` and the JSON schema for the fields you
must emit. Read and follow that guide's principles and JSON shape exactly —
it is the source of truth, not this file.
## Step 2: Write the prep file
```bash
crit story --prep /tmp/crit-story-prep.txt
```
This writes the full, untrimmed diff (commit messages + every hunk with its
`(file_path, old_start)` id) to the given path and prints the path. **Read
that file** — the diff is never inlined into the guide prompt.
## Step 3: Author the story JSON
Following the guide from Step 1, cluster hunks by theme (not by file) and
write a JSON object with **only** `prologue`, `chapters`, and `support` to a
temp file, e.g. `/tmp/crit-story.json`. Do not include `version`,
`generated_at`, `agent`, `base_sha`, `head_sha`, `scope_fingerprint`, or
`coverage` — crit fills those in.
## Step 4: Ingest
```bash
crit story --story-file /tmp/crit-story.json
```
Exit 0 means the story was saved (crit opens the browser to show it). **Then continue to Step 5** — do not stop after ingest. Exit 1
means it was rejected — the coverage report (missing/duplicated hunks) is
printed to stdout as JSON on every attempt, success or failure. If rejected:
- `duplicated` non-empty: a hunk is claimed by two chapters (or a chapter and
support). Decide where it belongs and re-ingest.
- `missing` non-empty with `auto_repaired: true` on exit 0: crit already
back-filled the omissions into `support[]`. Optionally re-author to place
them deliberately.
- A drift error ("diff changed since prep"): re-run `crit story --prep` and
re-author from the fresh prep file.
## Step 5: Reconnect and wait until Finish Review
**CRITICAL — you MUST run this step after a successful ingest. Do NOT skip it. Do NOT proceed without it.**
Story ingest opens the review UI and exits — it does **not** wait for the human. Run `crit` and wait until it exits:
```bash
crit
```
`crit` reconnects to the story session's daemon (already started by ingest) and blocks until the user clicks "Finish Review".
If ingest printed a review URL, relay it verbatim:
> **"Crit is open at http://localhost:<port>. Leave inline comments on the diff, then click Finish Review."**
**Do NOT proceed until `crit` completes.** Do NOT ask the user to type anything. Do NOT read the review file early. Wait for the command to finish — that is how you know the human is done reviewing.
While `crit` is still running, do not send user-facing progress updates. Treat the wait loop as internal state.
## Step 6: Read the review output
When `crit` completes, read **stdout** and follow its instructions. Check **stderr** for `approved: true` or `approved: false`.
If the finish prompt says the review is approved / `"approved": true`, tell the user no changes were requested and stop.
When a comment has `quote`, `anchor`, or `drifted`:
- `quote`: the specific text the reviewer selected — focus your changes on the quoted text rather than the entire line range
- `anchor`: use it to locate the current position of the content; line numbers may be stale after edits
- `drifted: true`: original content was removed or heavily rewritten — line numbers are approximate at best
**Fallback** (mid-round re-entry or headless workflows): `crit comments` / `crit comments --json`.
## Step 7: Address each review comment
Story mode is an editorial view over the underlying diff. Address comments against the **actual source files**. Do **not** edit, regenerate, or patch the saved story JSON unless the user explicitly asks.
For each unresolved comment:
1. Understand what the comment asks for
2. If it contains a suggestion block, apply that specific change
3. Revise the referenced source file
4. Reply with what you did: `crit comment --reply-to <id> --author 'Codex' '<what you did>'` (reply bodies support markdown)
5. **Do not pass `--resolve`.** Resolving is the reviewer's call. Only add `--resolve` if the user explicitly asks.
<important if="you are revising in plan mode">
Re-emit the revised plan inside `<proposed_plan>...</proposed_plan>` so Crit can review the new version.
</important>
### When replying to multiple comments
Use `--json` for a single bulk call instead of one invocation per comment:
```bash
echo '[
{"reply_to": "c_a1b2c3", "body": "Fixed"},
{"reply_to": "c_d4e5f6", "body": "Refactored as suggested"}
]' | crit comment --json --author 'Codex'
```
## Step 8: Signal completion and start next round
**CRITICAL — you MUST run this step. Do NOT skip it. Do NOT proceed without it.**
The finish prompt on stdout includes the command to run again — use it to start a new round.
On subsequent calls, `crit` automatically signals round-complete first, then blocks until the next "Finish Review" click.
Tell the user: **"Changes applied. Review the diff in your browser and click Finish Review when ready."**
**Do NOT proceed until the background `crit` task completes.** When it does, return to Step 6. If the user finishes with zero comments, the review is approved — stop the loop and proceed.
## What this skill does NOT do
- It does not produce agent-authored review comments during story authoring —
humans leave comments in the browser after ingest.
- It does not edit or regenerate the saved story JSON during the review loop
unless the user explicitly asks.
- It does not run bare `crit story` (LLM via `agent_cmd`) unless the user
explicitly asks for that path.
- It does not call `crit push` or `crit share` unless the user asks to share.

# Review with Crit
This is the interactive, human-in-the-browser review cycle. Run it only after
the user explicitly invokes `/crit` or directly asks to use Crit. A generic
request to review code, a plan, a diff, a PR, or a page does not count.
Review and revise code changes, plans, live pages (running dev servers, staging URLs), or local HTML files using `crit` for inline comment review.
## Step 1: Pass arguments to `crit`
The CLI auto-detects the review mode from its arguments. **Do not ask the user which mode to use.** Pass arguments through:
```
crit <arguments> # file, dir, URL, .html — CLI auto-detects mode
crit --pr <num|url> # GitHub PR (range mode)
crit --mr <iid|url> # GitLab MR (range mode)
crit --range <base>..<head> # commit range (range mode)
crit # no args → branch diff
```
If no arguments, check conversation context:
1. A plan file was written earlier in this conversation → `crit <plan-file>`
2. Otherwise → bare `crit` (branch diff)
<important if="the user wants to open the review from another device — e.g. a phone over Tailscale">
Keep crit on loopback and reverse-proxy in. Same Step 1 args still apply (file, bare `crit`, etc.):
```bash
crit --public-url "https://<machine>.ts.net" --allow-unauthenticated-network --no-open [args…]
# then: tailscale serve --bg --https=443 http://127.0.0.1:<port>
```
- `--public-url` only changes the URL crit prints — it does **not** expose the server.
- `--allow-unauthenticated-network` is required with `--public-url` (even on loopback) and with any non-loopback `--host`. Crit has no auth: anyone who can reach the URL can read the repo and post comments that may trigger agents. Confirm the user wants that blast radius.
- **Do not bind `--host` to a Tailscale/LAN IP** — proxy with `tailscale serve` (or an SSH tunnel). Get `<port>` from crit's startup output, or fix it with `-p`. Relay the URL crit prints (the public one), not localhost.
</important>
## Step 2: Launch crit and wait for review completion
**CRITICAL — you MUST run this step. Do NOT skip it. Do NOT proceed without it.**
Run `crit` and wait until it exits:
```bash
crit <plan-file> # specific file
crit # git mode
```
If a crit server is already running from earlier in this conversation, `crit` automatically connects to it. Starting from scratch, it spawns the daemon, opens the browser, and blocks until the user clicks "Finish Review".
`crit` prints the review URL on startup (e.g. `Started crit daemon at http://localhost:<port>`). Relay it verbatim:
> **"Crit is open at http://localhost:<port>. Leave inline comments, then click Finish Review."**
**Do NOT proceed until `crit` completes.** Do NOT ask the user to type anything. Do NOT read the review file early. Wait for the command to finish — that is how you know the human is done reviewing.
While `crit` is still running, do not send user-facing progress updates. Treat the wait loop as internal state.
## Step 3: Read the review output
When `crit` completes, read **stdout** and follow its instructions. Check **stderr** for `approved: true` or `approved: false`.
When a comment has `quote`, `anchor`, or `drifted`:
- `quote`: the specific text the reviewer selected — focus your changes on the quoted text rather than the entire line range
- `anchor`: use it to locate the current position of the content; line numbers may be stale after edits
- `drifted: true`: original content was removed or heavily rewritten — line numbers are approximate at best
**Fallback** (mid-round re-entry, plan hooks, or headless workflows): `crit comments` / `crit comments --json`. Use `crit comments --plan <slug>` for plan-mode reviews.
## Step 4: Address each review comment
For each unresolved comment:
1. Understand what the comment asks for
2. If it contains a suggestion block, apply that specific change
3. Revise the referenced file (plan or code file from the diff)
4. Reply with what you did: `crit comment --reply-to <id> --author 'Codex' '<what you did>'` (reply bodies support markdown)
5. **Do not pass `--resolve`.** Resolving is the reviewer's call. Only add `--resolve` if the user explicitly asks.
Editing the plan file triggers Crit's live reload — the user sees changes in the browser immediately.
<important if="you are revising in plan mode">
Re-emit the revised plan inside `<proposed_plan>...</proposed_plan>` so Crit can review the new version.
</important>
### When replying to multiple comments
Use `--json` for a single bulk call instead of one invocation per comment:
```bash
echo '[
{"reply_to": "c_a1b2c3", "body": "Fixed"},
{"reply_to": "c_d4e5f6", "body": "Refactored as suggested"}
]' | crit comment --json --author 'Codex'
```
## Step 5: Signal completion and start next round
**CRITICAL — you MUST run this step. Do NOT skip it. Do NOT proceed without it.**
The finish prompt on stdout includes the command to run again — use it to start a new round.
On subsequent calls, `crit` automatically signals round-complete first, then blocks until the next "Finish Review" click.
Tell the user: **"Changes applied. Review the diff in your browser and click Finish Review when ready."**
**Do NOT proceed until the background `crit` task completes.** When it does, return to Step 3. If the user finishes with zero comments, the review is approved — stop the loop and proceed.
## Sharing
If the user asks for a URL, a shareable link, or to share the review:
```bash
crit share <file>
```
**Always relay the full output to the user** — copy the URL directly into your response. Don't make them dig through tool output.
To remove a shared review:
```bash
crit unpublish [file...]
```
### QR codes
Only use `--qr` in real terminal environments with monospace rendering. Skip it in mobile apps or web chat UIs — Unicode block characters won't render.
```bash
crit share --qr <file>
```
