01The course

For people who approve merges.

This is not an introduction to AI tooling. It assumes you already review code and that the volume has started to outpace your ability to read it properly.

What you will learn

  • 01How AI-generated code fails differently from human code, and why that changes how you read it
  • 02Reading a diff for intent rather than syntax
  • 03The four categories of change that always need a human author
  • 04Spotting authorisation and data-shape errors that tests will happily pass
  • 05Scoping work so the output stays reviewable in the first place
  • 06Running a review process at volume without it becoming a rubber stamp

Who it is for

  • Engineers who approve merges and want a defensible standard
  • Technical leads setting a review bar for a team adopting AI tooling
  • Contractors who need to evidence a review discipline to clients
  • Teams whose insurer or enterprise customer has started asking questions

02Curriculum

What you work through.

Each module is roughly an hour, ending in a worked exercise on a real diff with a model answer you can compare against.

  1. 01

    How AI code fails

    45 minutes

    Human mistakes look like mistakes. Model mistakes look like working code with a confident commit message. This module covers the specific failure signatures — plausible-but-wrong assumptions, invented interfaces, and silently dropped edge cases.

  2. 02

    Reading for intent

    1 hour

    Reviewing generated code line by line is slow and misses the point. You learn to establish what the change was supposed to do first, then read for whether it does that, which is faster and catches more.

  3. 03

    The data layer

    1 hour

    Schema and migration review, where a wrong decision stays quiet for months and then becomes expensive. Covers normalisation errors, missing constraints, and migrations that cannot be rolled back.

  4. 04

    Authorisation and access

    1 hour

    The highest-consequence category, and the one automated tests pass most happily. You work through real examples of who-can-see-what errors that look entirely correct in isolation.

  5. 05

    Scoping for reviewability

    45 minutes

    The cheapest review improvement is upstream: asking for smaller, better-bounded changes. Covers task decomposition and when to reject output as too large to review rather than reading it anyway.

  6. 06

    Running it at volume

    1 hour 15 minutes

    Turning individual skill into a team process — ownership rules, what must never be delegated, and the two metrics that reveal whether your review culture is real or ceremonial.
