-            Read CLAUDE.md for project conventions and architecture patterns. Focus on substantive issues:
-            - Code quality, potential bugs, architecture alignment
-            - Testing coverage
-
-            BE CONCISE. Only report actual issues worth addressing - skip generic praise and obvious observations.
-            If the PR looks good, just say so briefly.
-
-            **Posting your review:**
-            1. First, check if you've already posted a review comment on this PR (find the comment ID):
-               ```bash
-               COMMENT_ID=$(gh api repos/${{ github.repository }}/issues/${{ github.event.pull_request.number }}/comments --jq '.[] | select(.user.login == "claude[bot]" or .user.login == "github-actions[bot]") | select(.body | startswith("## Claude Code Review")) | .id' | head -1)
-               ```
-
-            2. If COMMENT_ID exists (non-empty), UPDATE that comment:
-               ```bash
-               gh api repos/${{ github.repository }}/issues/comments/$COMMENT_ID -X PATCH -f body="YOUR_REVIEW_CONTENT_HERE"
-               ```
-
-            3. If COMMENT_ID is empty, create a new comment:
-               ```bash
-               gh pr comment ${{ github.event.pull_request.number }} --body "YOUR_REVIEW_CONTENT_HERE" --repo ${{ github.repository }}
-               ```
-
-            Start your review with "## Claude Code Review" heading so it can be identified and updated on subsequent runs.
