React Doctor▌
Your agent writes bad React, this catches it.
Export includes YAML frontmatter on the MDX option plus attribution so copies credit explainx.ai and this page URL.
about
One command scans your codebase and outputs a 0 to 100 health score with actionable diagnostics. Works with Next.js, Vite, and React Native. You'll get a score indicating the health of your code along with a list of issues across various categories such as state & effects, performance, architecture, security, accessibility, and dead code. Teach your coding agent React best practices so it stops writing bad code in the first place.

Use Cases▌
Code Review Automation
Review pull requests for bugs, style issues, and improvements
Example
Agent comments on PR: 'Line 42: Unhandled error case. Consider adding try-catch.'
Catch 60-70% of code review issues before human reviewer sees PR
Debugging Assistant
Analyze error messages and suggest fixes
Example
'TypeError: Cannot read property X of undefined' → Agent: 'Add null check on line 23'
Reduce debugging time by 30-40% for common errors
Codebase Navigation
Answer questions about unfamiliar code
Example
'Where is user authentication handled?' → Agent: 'See src/auth/middleware.ts:45'
Onboard new developers 50% faster
Refactoring Suggestions
Identify code smells and propose improvements
Example
'This function is 200 lines. Consider extracting [3 helper functions]'
Reduce technical debt incrementally without dedicated refactoring sprints
Architecture▌
Code agents assist developers by generating code, reviewing pull requests, debugging errors, and explaining complex codebases. They combine LLMs with code analysis tools and repository context.
Code-Aware LLM
Language model trained on code (e.g., GPT-4, Claude, Codex)
Understand and generate code across multiple languages
Repository Context
Codebase indexing and semantic search
Understand project structure, dependencies, and existing patterns
Static Analysis Tools
Linters, type checkers, security scanners
Catch bugs, enforce style, identify security issues
Testing Integration
Run tests and interpret results
Verify generated code works and doesn't break existing functionality
Implementation Guide▌
Prerequisites
- ›CI/CD pipeline with test automation
- ›Code style guide and linting rules
- ›Repository with clear structure and documentation
- ›Buy-in from engineering team on AI pair programming
Installation Steps
- 1.Index codebase for semantic search and context
- 2.Integrate agent with Git workflow (PR comments, commit analysis)
- 3.Define agent scope: code review, generation, or both
- 4.Set up testing sandbox for agent-generated code
- 5.Configure code review rules: what agent flags vs. approves
- 6.Pilot with one team, measure PR review time and bug catch rate
- 7.Iterate on prompts based on false positives/negatives
- 8.Roll out to entire engineering org
Key Considerations
- →Security: Don't send proprietary code to external APIs without approval
- →Trust: Developers must review agent suggestions, not blindly accept
- →Skill atrophy: Junior devs may rely too much on agent—balance with learning
- →Context limits: Agent may not understand entire codebase—scope carefully
Best Practices▌
✓ Do
- +Use agent as assistant, not replacement for human judgment
- +Review agent suggestions before implementing
- +Provide feedback on agent quality to improve over time
- +Use for boilerplate and repetitive tasks first
- +Integrate with existing dev tools (IDE, Git, CI/CD)
- +Track metrics to measure ROI and team satisfaction
✗ Don't
- −Don't skip code review because agent 'approved' it
- −Don't share sensitive code with external LLMs without approval
- −Don't let junior devs rely solely on agent for learning
- −Don't ignore false positives—fix prompt or disable bad rules
- −Don't deploy agent-generated code without testing
Performance & Optimization▌
Key Metrics
- PR review time: Before vs. after agent adoption (target: 30% reduction)
- Bug catch rate: % of bugs found by agent vs. human (target: 60-70% by agent)
- False positive rate: Invalid agent comments (target: <10%)
- Developer satisfaction: Survey results on agent usefulness (target: 4+/5)
- Time to onboard: New developer productivity timeline (target: 50% faster)
Optimization Tips
- →Train agent on team's coding standards and past PR comments
- →Adjust sensitivity: fewer nit-picks, focus on critical issues
- →Expand context window: give agent more codebase visibility
- →Fine-tune on team's historical bugs and fixes
