Is this something paid post? asking someone with high karma to post and making it to first page of HN news?

The baseline Claude prompt being compared to feels pretty laughable so not sure what is learned. Maybe compare to a more realistic baseline for the DIY side for more compelling benchmarketing?

We started with a DIY code review skill because it's inherent to want to customize to our codebase and infra before trying solutions that add layers which may get in our way here. We have a 1 page skill that that does seperate passes on security, spec conformance, proper DRY & architectural abstractions, etc, and adversarial result quality passes to prune & prioritize. Others do similar.

Once quality is fixed, I'd expect the comparisons to be less on hits/misses , and more on token efficiency. That's a tricky one bc developer local review tokens are heavily subsidized right now.
