PowerOn code review checklist—what belongs on it?

I am drafting a lightweight peer-review checklist covering readability, failure handling, least privilege, test evidence, logging, and rollback. What would you add or remove?

We approached “PowerOn code review checklist—what belongs on it?” by starting with ownership and a small written definition of success. The most useful outcome was not the document itself—it was getting operations, developers, and business partners to agree on the same boundary before building anything.

One practical addition for “PowerOn code review checklist—what belongs on it?” is a short validation section: expected inputs, representative synthetic examples, failure behavior, evidence to retain, and the person who can make a go/no-go decision. That keeps the conversation actionable.

I would also capture what should never be shared in the process. Sanitized examples, approved test environments, least-privilege access, and a clear rollback path make it much easier for people to collaborate safely.

That framing is helpful. I especially like treating documentation, validation evidence, and rollback ownership as part of the deliverable rather than follow-up work.
