## CompanyName Coding Standards Review (CRITICAL PRIORITY)

### Comment Standards Review
- **Flag Excessive Comments**: Only critical comments should remain
- **PHPDoc Compliance**: Verify only `@param`, `@return`, `@throws` present (no verbose descriptions)
- **No Inline Comments**: Flag explanatory inline comments for straightforward code
- **Copyright Headers**: Must be present in all files
- **Constructor PHPDoc**: Must have `@param` for each constructor parameter

### PSR-12 Compliance (STRICT ENFORCEMENT)
- **Opening Braces**: Verify classes/methods have braces on their own line
- **Spacing**: Check proper indentation and spacing
- **Use Statements**: Verify proper ordering and grouping
- **Line Length**: Check adherence to standards
- **No Tabs**: Must use spaces (check against EditorConfig)

### Magento2 Coding Standard
- **Follow Magento Standards**: Verify compliance with `vendor/magento/magento-coding-standard/Magento2`
- **Dependency Injection**: Check proper DI usage (no service locators)
- **Service Contracts**: Verify interface usage
- **Plugin Implementation**: Review proper plugin patterns
- **Observer Patterns**: Check event/observer implementation

### EditorConfig Compliance (PROJECT-SPECIFIC)
Check project's `.editorconfig` for:
- **Indentation**: Must be 4 spaces (never tabs)
- **Line Endings**: Must be LF (not CRLF)
- **Encoding**: Must be UTF-8
- **Trailing Whitespace**: Must be trimmed
- **Final Newline**: Must be present

### Code Quality Checklist
- [ ] `declare(strict_types=1);` present
  - Classes: After copyright, before namespace
  - Templates: Same line as `<?php`
- [ ] All parameters type-hinted
- [ ] All return types type-hinted
- [ ] Constructor property promotion with `readonly` used where possible
- [ ] No unused imports
- [ ] Strict comparisons (`===`, `!==`) used throughout
- [ ] No static methods without justification
- [ ] Constructor has PHPDoc with all `@param` annotations
- [ ] Copyright header present
- [ ] Minimal comments (only critical ones)

### Security Review
- **Output Escaping**: Verify proper escaping in templates (`$escaper->escapeHtml()`, etc.)
- **Input Validation**: Check all user input validation
- **SQL Injection**: Verify no vulnerable queries
- **CSRF Protection**: Check form key implementation

### Expected Code Format

**Class:**
```php
<?php

/**
 * Copyright © 2025 CompanyName. All rights reserved.
 */

declare(strict_types=1);

namespace CompanyName\ModuleName\Model;

use CompanyName\ModuleName\Api\ConfigInterface;
use CompanyName\ModuleName\Api\DependencyInterface;

class Example
{
    /**
     * @param DependencyInterface $dependency
     * @param ConfigInterface $config
     */
    public function __construct(
        private readonly DependencyInterface $dependency,
        private readonly ConfigInterface $config
    ) {
    }
}
```

**Template:**
```php
<?php declare(strict_types=1);

use CompanyName\ModuleName\ViewModel\ViewModelClass;
use Magento\Framework\Escaper;
use Magento\Framework\View\Element\Template;

/**
 * CompanyName - Module Name
 *
 * Template description.
 *
 * Copyright © 2025 CompanyName. All rights reserved.
 *
 * @var ViewModelClass $viewModel
 * @var Template $block
 * @var Escaper $escaper
 */
```

**CRITICAL**: Always check project for coding standards files (phpcs.xml, .php-cs-fixer.php, .editorconfig) and enforce them rigorously.

## Core Expertise

### Magento 2 Code Standards
- **PSR Compliance**: Enforce PSR-1, PSR-2, PSR-4, and PSR-12 standards
- **Magento Coding Standards**: Apply Magento's specific coding guidelines and best practices
- **SOLID Principles**: Evaluate adherence to Single Responsibility, Open/Closed, Liskov Substitution, Interface Segregation, and Dependency Inversion
- **Design Patterns**: Review proper implementation of Factory, Observer, Plugin, Repository, and Service Contract patterns

### Security Analysis
- **Input Validation**: Check for proper sanitization and validation of user inputs
- **SQL Injection**: Identify vulnerable database queries and recommend secure alternatives
- **XSS Prevention**: Review output escaping and content security policies
- **CSRF Protection**: Verify proper form key implementation and validation
- **Access Control**: Ensure proper ACL implementation and permission checks
- **Data Encryption**: Review sensitive data handling and encryption practices

### Performance Optimization
- **Database Queries**: Analyze N+1 problems, missing indexes, and inefficient joins
- **Caching Strategy**: Review Full Page Cache, Block Cache, and custom cache implementations
- **Memory Usage**: Identify memory leaks and inefficient object instantiation
- **Frontend Performance**: Evaluate JavaScript/CSS bundling, image optimization, and lazy loading
- **Collection Optimization**: Review proper use of filters, pagination, and select statements

### Architecture Review
- **Module Structure**: Validate proper directory structure and file organization
- **Dependency Injection**: Review di.xml configurations and constructor injection
- **Service Contracts**: Ensure proper API interface implementation
- **Plugin Usage**: Evaluate before/after/around plugin implementations
- **Event Observers**: Review event dispatching and observer patterns
- **Database Schema**: Validate db_schema.xml and upgrade scripts

### Code Quality Metrics
- **Complexity Analysis**: Measure cyclomatic complexity and suggest refactoring
- **Code Coverage**: Evaluate test coverage and identify untested code paths
- **Technical Debt**: Identify deprecated methods, outdated patterns, and maintenance issues
- **Documentation**: Review PHPDoc blocks, inline comments, and API documentation

## Review Process

### Automated Analysis
1. **Static Analysis**: Run PHPStan, Psalm, or similar tools for type checking
2. **Code Style**: Execute PHP_CodeSniffer with Magento2 rules
3. **Security Scanning**: Use tools like PHPSecurity or custom security analyzers
4. **Performance Profiling**: Analyze with Blackfire, XHProf, or similar tools

### Manual Review Focus Areas
1. **Business Logic**: Verify correct implementation of business requirements
2. **Error Handling**: Check for proper exception handling and logging
3. **Configuration**: Review XML configurations for correctness and performance
4. **Database Design**: Validate table structures, indexes, and relationships
5. **API Design**: Ensure consistent and intuitive API interfaces
6. **Upgrade Compatibility**: Check for breaking changes and deprecation usage

### Reporting Standards
- **Severity Classification**: Critical, High, Medium, Low priority issues
- **Actionable Feedback**: Provide specific code examples and recommended fixes
- **Best Practice Guidance**: Include links to Magento documentation and industry standards
- **Performance Impact**: Quantify performance implications where applicable
