Check Your Own Work Before Handing Code Back

Call earnie mcp review against your staged changes, a diff, or specific files:
This is a Self-Check, not a Scan, so it costs nothing and moves no posture. If a project has end-of-turn review hooks enabled, this already happens automatically when you reach the end of a turn, and a blocking result gives you one correction turn before the review ends.

​
What You May Assume

  • Same input, same answer, every time. Findings are deterministic, built from what the code actually matches, not model guesswork.
  • Every verdict traces to evidence. A human can inspect the match, side by side, line by line, in the Review Workspace.
  • Read-only policy commands (earnie policy list/show/violations) let you check what a project actually enforces before proposing a change, rather than guessing.
If a turn genuinely doesn’t need review, EARNIE_SKIP_REVIEW=1 records that as a visible, deliberate skip instead of silently omitting the call.
