Ran its review-context.sh script against a throwaway git repo with a deliberately broken feature branch (blocking .Result, string-built SQL, static mutable cache, swallowed exception) and the built-in heuristic grep flagged all four risk lines by number before the model even started reasoning, then the output-contract format forced severity/evidence/fix/confidence per finding — more rigorous and faster to audit than an unguided review.

Scored on four weighted criteria — install, triggering, output vs. baseline, docs. How scoring works

  • Installs cleanly 5/5
  • Triggers reliably 5/5
  • Output vs. baseline 8/10
  • Docs & honesty 5/5

What Dotnet Techne Code Review does

Reviews .NET diffs/branches/commit-ranges for correctness, performance, security, DB and messaging issues using a fixed output contract (severity/evidence/fix/confidence). Triggers on code-review requests, including an adversarial 'cynical mode' for skeptical review language, and ships bundled bash/PowerShell scripts that grep diffs for known risk patterns (blocking .Result, raw SQL, swallowed exceptions).
