I feel like I would have loved this a year ago when I still reviewed PRs by reading diffs. Alas these days I do my reviews inside a harness using my code review skill: https://github.com/igor47/dotfiles/blob/master/claude/skills...

I don't see how I could keep up with the volume of code my team now produces without this. How do other people do it?

By having policies in place of at least doing reviews by reading and understanding what is going on.

I recommend picking a random sample of commits to review more thoroughly by hand in parallel with the harness review.

That way, you get the opportunity to measure how many and what kind of issues your harness method misses, and with an estimation of their cost, you can make an informed decision about what magnitude speedup pays for the change in detection rate.
