Google has just published the Code Review standard that its internal engineers use. You can literally give this documentation to an AI agent and turn it into a code reviewer with Google standards. Most AIs only generate code. Now they can also: → detect bad practices → review architecture → request useful changes → validate readability and maintainability → give Google-style feedback The document includes how they actually review code inside Google: → approval criteria → what blocks a merge → how to write code that's easy to accept → internal terms like LGTM and CL It's not theory. It's the real system Google uses to review millions of lines of code. Link below
