7 Layers of Code Review: How to Keep Quality When Working with Agents

One of the Hacker News posts is about 7-layers code review for agents. Author claims that it helps to increase productivity 2–3x and reviewing cycle takes 5–15 minutes per task.

On Hacker News there was a post about 7 layers of code quality review with agents. The author says that it increases developer productivity 2–3x. A task is reviewed within 5–15 min and an agent can generate a test with over 95% code coverage if the input spec is good.

The lowest level of this pyramid is when a task is poorly specified and the agent can execute it incorrectly. I treat AI code review as a separate layer in my stack since it helps to find logical errors and security vulnerabilities that aren’t caught by tests.
