01. Code review should be narrow and adversarial
Section 1 of 3
Codex review is most useful when you ask for prioritized defects, not generic feedback. Make it look for behavior regressions, missing tests, security mistakes, data loss, and edge cases. Then decide which findings are real before asking Codex to patch them.

Review this diff.
Prioritize only:
- behavior regressions
- auth or tenant isolation bugs
- data loss
- missing tests for changed behavior
- production observability gaps
For each finding, include:
- file
- exact risk
- why the current code fails
- minimal fix
Do not comment on naming or style unless it hides a real bug.Back to Course
