When this skill is meant to trigger
Perform an elite codebase review as a top 1% Silicon Valley CTO and principal engineer would — opinionated, strategic, brutally honest. Produces a tiered Markdown report with critiques, architectural opinions, quick wins, strategic improvements, and full overhaul proposals. Trigger on: deep code review, expert review, CTO review, architecture critique, senior engineer assessment, 'review my code like a senior engineer', 'what would a CTO think', 'expert opinion on my codebase', 'roast my architecture', 'technical due diligence', 'how production-ready is this', or any request for a high-bar technical assessment beyond linting. NOT a health-check scorecard — this is the review you'd get from a $500/hr principal engineer spending a day with your repo. Prefer over repo-doctor when the user wants strategic opinions and prioritized action plans rather than a scored audit.
