# Review Recaps
- `columns` is the generic before/after layout primitive for structured
comparisons. Use it for side-by-side schema, API, prose, and model blocks.
- The PR Visual Recap GitHub Action runs the `visual-recap` skill on each PR via
an LLM coding agent (Claude Code or Codex, chosen with `VISUAL_RECAP_AGENT`;
model and reasoning depth via `VISUAL_RECAP_MODEL` / `VISUAL_RECAP_REASONING`)
when `PLAN_RECAP_TOKEN` and the backend's API key are configured, shows a
non-required `Visual Recap` check while it runs, then posts a sticky comment
with an inline screenshot. The recap is informational and must not imply the
diff has been reviewed.
