+# Reviewer Prompt Template
+
+Build each reviewer subagent's prompt from this template, filling in the placeholders.
+
+---
+
+You are an adversarial code reviewer. Find real problems in the code below: bugs, design flaws, security issues, and maintainability concerns. You are not here to be helpful or encouraging. You are here to stress-test.
+
+## Intent
+
+The author's stated intent for this change:
+
+> {INTENT}
+
+Review whether the code achieves this intent well. Do NOT question the intent itself. Assume the goal is correct and challenge the execution.
+
+## Code Under Review
+
+{DIFF_OR_FILES}
+
+## Review Rubric
+
+{RUBRIC_CONTENTS}
+
+## Code Quality Lens
+
+{CODE_QUALITY_CONTENTS}
+
+## Instructions
+
+Review the code through every lens in the rubric and the code-quality lens above that you find relevant. Do not force lenses that don't apply. A simple bug fix does not need paragraphs about architectural integrity.
+
+For each finding, provide:
+
+1. **Severity**: `critical` | `warning` | `nit`
+   - `critical`: Would cause bugs, data loss, security issues, or fundamentally broken behavior
+   - `warning`: Design concern, maintainability risk, or correctness issue that isn't immediately broken but will cause pain
+   - `nit`: Style, naming, minor improvement.
+2. **Finding**: What the problem is, in concrete terms. Reference specific lines/functions.
+3. **Evidence**: Why you believe this is a problem. Show your reasoning. Don't just assert.
+4. **Suggestion** (optional): What you'd do instead, only if you have a concrete alternative.
+
+A good finding references specific code, not vague concerns ("this could be better"). It distinguishes between "this is broken" and "I would have done this differently". It considers the stated intent. A finding that ignores the context of what's being built is a bad finding.
+
+Do not restate what the code does without identifying a problem. Do not praise the code. If you find nothing wrong, say "no findings" and stop. An empty review is a valid outcome.
+
+## Output
+
+Return your findings as a structured list:
+
+```
+## Findings
+
+### 1. [Severity] Short title
+**Location**: file:line or function name
+**Finding**: What's wrong
+**Evidence**: Why this matters
+**Suggestion**: (optional) What to do instead
+
+### 2. [Severity] Short title

+# Review Rubric
+
+Review through whichever lenses are relevant. Not every lens applies to every change.
+
+## Correctness
+
+Does the code actually do what the intent says it should?
+
+- Edge cases: empty inputs, nil/undefined, boundary values, concurrent access
+- Error handling: are errors caught, propagated, or silently swallowed?
+- Off-by-one, type coercion, integer overflow, string encoding
+- State management: race conditions, stale closures, dangling references
+- Do both the happy path and the sad path work?
+- Idempotency: what happens if this operation runs twice, or if a previous run crashed halfway? If the answer is "it depends on what state was left behind," a reconciliation step is missing.
+- Concurrency: if multiple actors can touch the same mutable state (files, branches, shared data), is access serialized structurally (locks, sequential phases, exclusive ownership), or by conventions that won't hold?
+
+When you find a potential bug, trace the execution path. Don't just flag "this could be nil". Show the call chain that makes it nil.
+
+## Root Causes vs. Symptoms
+
+Is the code fixing the actual problem or papering over a symptom?
+
+Answering this often requires looking beyond the changed files. Read the surrounding code (callers, callees, type definitions, sibling modules) and understand the architecture the change lives in. Use the tools available to you (Read, Grep, Glob) to follow the call chain, read the types, and understand why the code exists before judging whether the change addresses the right layer.
+
+- Guard clauses that mask a deeper invariant violation
+- Retry logic that hides a broken contract
+- Type casts that silence a modeling error
+- A workaround: why is it needed? What would a proper fix look like?
+- A fix in module A that should really be a fix in module B's contract
+- Instructions where structure would be better: if the fix is a comment saying "don't do X" or a convention someone has to remember, ask whether it could instead be a type constraint, a lint rule, or a runtime check that makes the wrong thing impossible
+
+## Structural Integrity
+
+Does the code fit well into the system it's part of?
+
+- Boundary discipline: is validation at system boundaries, or scattered through business logic? Validate data once where it enters the system, then trust it internally.
+- Abstraction level: is the code mixing high-level orchestration with low-level detail?
+- Coupling: does this change introduce dependencies that will make future changes harder?
+- Data model fit: do the data structures match the actual access patterns?
+- Bolted-on vs. integrated: if the new requirement had been known from the start, would the code look like this, or does the change feel patched onto the existing design?
+- Legacy dual-paths: does the change introduce a new API while keeping the old one alive? If there are no external consumers, migrate callers and delete the old path in the same wave. Don't leave compatibility layers that will become permanent.
+
+Don't penalize simple code for lacking abstraction. Premature abstraction is worse than duplication.
+
+## Verification
+
+Can you tell that this code works from reading it?
+
+- Are there tests? Do they test behavior or implementation details?
+- Are there assertions/invariants that would catch regressions?
+- If this is a bug fix: is there a test for the bug?
+- If this touches an integration boundary: is the full path tested?
+- Check the real thing, not a proxy. If the code checks liveness via file mtime or cached state instead of reading the actual value, that's a verification gap.
+- For delegated or async work: does the code verify actual output artifacts, or does it trust self-reports and summaries?
+
+## Complexity Budget
+
+Is the complexity justified by what the code accomplishes?
+
+- Code that could be simpler without losing correctness or clarity
+- Abstractions that serve only one call site
+- Configuration or parameterization for cases that don't exist yet
+- Dead code, unused imports, vestigial parameters
+- Over-engineering: "just in case" code paths with no current callers
+- Obsolete compatibility paths kept alive for transitional stability that's no longer needed. If the migration is done, delete the scaffolding
+- Does the user experience justify the complexity? Every feature, control, and option should earn its place. Half-finished features are worse than missing ones.
+
+Simpler is better unless simpler is wrong.
+
+## Security
+
+For each security finding, trace the input path through the code and show it.
+
+- User input flowing to dangerous sinks (SQL, shell, eval, innerHTML) without sanitization
+- Authentication/authorization gaps in new endpoints
+- Secrets in code, logs, or error messages
+- TOCTOU (time-of-check-time-of-use) in security-critical paths

+# No comments
+
+Spawn Comment Sicko. Act on accepted findings.
+
+Defer to Comment Sicko's fresh perspective.
+
+## Scope
+
+Use the caller's files or diff. Otherwise use the current diff against the base branch, default `main`, including the working tree.
+
+## Steps
+
+1. Spawn the comment reviewer subagent. Pass the scope. Do not restate its rules.
+2. Inspect its report and diff. Reject application-code edits, scope escapes, exception-protected deletions, misstated `MUST KILL` reasons, and flags that treat kept intentional code as guilty. Reshape flags on our-code surprises stay actionable. Do not restore those comments. A keep survives only with proof it is about something we cannot change. Audit missed scoped lint and TypeScript suppressions. Correctness or safety suppressions stay actionable `MUST KILL`s. Restore deletions only with exact exceptions and scoped proof. Before accepting thin `IMPORTANT` or `do not remove` kills or keeps, run the **how** or **why** skill on their symbol. If a kill is ambiguous, do not restore. If a keep is refuted or still ambiguous, delete it. Revert and rerun one rejected report with the failure named. Reject a second, report it open, and fail the **no-comments** skill.
+3. Fix trivial accepted flags directly by deleting a dead path, dropping a parameter, or using the real API. If any fix needs a shape, run the **architect** skill once for the accepted set and surrounding code. Stop at the sketch. Architect shapes. Step 4 implements.
+4. Implement the smallest root-cause fix in scope. Remove every named workaround. If the root cause is out of scope, land the smallest in-scope fix and report the rest open. The **principle-fix-root-causes** and **principle-redesign-from-first-principles** skills guide intent only. Neither authorizes widening the fence nor fixing instances outside it. Never bolt on symptom guards.
+5. Constraint comments say `do not remove`, `do not change wording`, or `talk to X before changing`. Leave keeps about things we cannot change. Offer the cheapest in-scope type, runtime, test, or CI lint. Wait for interactive approval. Unattended and eval require caller pre-approval. If approved, encode then delete. Otherwise delete, report the constraint open, and sketch out-of-scope work.
+6. Report the deletion count, restored comments, reruns, architect sketch, fixes, encoding offers, encodings, unenforced constraints, and other open work.

+description: Spawn three parallel review subagents over the active transcript, surface learnings, and route each to a concrete edit on an existing skill. Use when the user says reflect.
+---
+
+# Reflect
+
+Mine the current conversation for durable learnings, then route them into skill edits.
+
+Invoke when the user says "reflect" or "the reflect skill". Skip when the conversation is trivial, off-topic, or already covered by an existing skill the parent followed correctly. One-offs are not learnings.
+
+## 1. Locate the active transcript
+
+Before fanning out, find this conversation's transcript in the `agent-transcripts/` directory the system prompt names. Do not glob across every workspace's transcript root. That crosses workspace boundaries and reads private chats from unrelated projects.
+
+```bash
+ls -t <agent-transcripts>/*.jsonl <agent-transcripts>/*/*.jsonl <agent-transcripts>/*/subagents/*.jsonl 2>/dev/null | head -10
+```
+
+That covers the legacy flat (`<id>.jsonl`), current nested (`<id>/<id>.jsonl`), and subagent (`<parent>/subagents/<child>.jsonl`) layouts. For each candidate, read the first JSONL line. Take the file whose `message.content[0].text` contains the conversation's opening user prompt. If none matches, pass a tight digest of the session instead.
+
+## 2. Spawn three reviewers in parallel
+
+One message, three `Task` calls, agent mode (`readonly: false`). Reviewers need MCP access to look up the tickets, chat threads, and observability traces the transcript references, and readonly strips MCPs.
+
+Each reviewer and the synthesizer name a role line in your configuration and a default. Set `model` to that line's value, or to the default if the line is missing. Leave `model` unset when the value is `auto` or `inherit-parent`. If the Task tool rejects a slug, use the default and say so. If it rejects the default, use the closest valid slug of the same family from its error message.
+
+| Lens | Role line | Default `model` | Prompt template |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| Judgment | `reflect judgment, divergent, synthesizer` | the strongest model | `references/judgment-reviewer.md` |
+| Tooling | `reflect tooling` | a fast model | `references/tooling-reviewer.md` |
+| Divergent | `reflect judgment, divergent, synthesizer` | the strongest model | `references/divergent-reviewer.md` |
+
+Pass each template verbatim, substituting the transcript path or digest where marked. Reviewers return findings in the `Task` response body.
+
+## 3. Synthesize
+
+One `Task` call, agent mode (`readonly: false`), with `model` from the `reflect judgment, divergent, synthesizer` line (default the strongest model). It spot-verifies citations through MCP, and readonly strips MCPs. Pass `references/synthesizer.md` verbatim, with each reviewer's full output inlined where marked. It returns an Accepted / Rejected / Backlog list.
+
+## 4. Structural enforcement check
+
+Move any Accepted item that a lint rule, script, metadata flag, or runtime check would enforce more reliably to Backlog. See the **encode-lessons-in-structure** principle skill.
+
+## 5. Apply
+
+Present the synthesizer's full Accepted / Rejected / Backlog output and wait for explicit approval before applying any Accepted edit. The user picks the subset and may redirect routings. Skill changes affect every future agent in the org. Do not auto-apply.
+
+File each Backlog item to your team's devex or backlog tracker without waiting. Only the Accepted list waits for approval.
+
+Follow each approved row's Routing exactly:
+
+- Trivial existing-skill edit (a one-line bullet, a tightened sentence, a stale fact corrected): the parent does it directly.
+- Substantive existing-skill edit (a new section, a new pattern table, more than ~10 lines): hand to the host's built-in `create-skill` skill and run its draft / test / iterate loop.
+- `tune description: <skill path>` (the skill exists but didn't trigger when it should have): hand to `create-skill` and run its description-optimization loop.
+- `new skill via create-skill: <kebab-name>`: hand creation to `create-skill`. Do not invent the shape ad hoc.
+
+If your environment ships a SKILL.md validator, run it on every touched skill before declaring done.
+
+## 6. Summarize for the user
+
+Short list, no preamble:
+
+- Edits applied: `<skill path>`. What changed, one line each.
+- New skills created: `<skill path>`. One line each (rare).
+- Backlog filed to the devex tracker: `<issue title>` (`<tags>`). One line each.
+- Dropped: one line per rejected finding + reason from the synthesizer.

+- Durability: still true in 6 months once paths, SHAs, tool versions, and code shapes have changed.
+- Specificity: broad enough to apply across tasks, precise enough that a future agent recognizes when to use it. Reject vague platitudes ("write good code") and hyper-specific facts ("`<specific-skill-name>` has 175 tokens at limit 80").
+- Existing-skill-first: propose `new skill via create-skill:` only when no existing skill is a real home, the pattern recurs, and the topic deserves its own skill.
+- Convergence: findings echoed by 2+ reviewers carry higher confidence. Singletons must clear a higher bar on the other criteria.
+- Decision-changing: a future agent does something different because of the edit, not just reads more text.
+- Structural-mechanism check: route to Backlog when a lint rule, script, metadata flag, or runtime check already enforces the rule or could enforce it cheaply. Skill prose is for things mechanisms cannot enforce.
+- Skill-was-used: accept only findings that route to a skill, tool, or MCP the parent invoked in the transcript. If the skill wasn't used but should have been, route to `tune description: <skill path>`. If neither, reject as `skill-not-used`.
+- Already-covered: read the target skill before accepting any body-edit row. If the proposal duplicates clear, well-placed existing guidance, reject as `already-covered`, because the issue is execution, not the skill. If the existing guidance is buried, weak, or easy to skip past, accept the row but reframe the proposal as a wording / placement improvement that makes it fire (not a duplicate addition).

+
+## Logging a row
+
+Write each entry the way you'd tell a teammate what you did. Plain words, concrete actions, no AI speak or abstract jargon (the **unslop** skill applies to log text too).
+
+Use the helper `scripts/log.sh <logfile> <phase> <decision> <why> <evidence> <result>`. It stamps `ts`, writes the header on first use, strips stray tabs/newlines, and prefixes any cell starting with `=`, `+`, `-`, or `@` with a single quote. A bare `printf` appending a row works too, but mind those same bytes if cells come from generated or user-supplied text.
+
+Log decision points and checkpoints, not every action: a fork chosen, a unit completed with its verification result, a pivot or revert with its trigger, a blocker surfaced, a gate fixed. For loop runs, one row per iteration. Skip the trivial and self-evident.
+
+A run is one agent conversation, including its later turns and any summary of it. A pickup, a replacement agent, or a new chat starts a new run. When a run adds to a log that already has rows, its first row has phase `start`, and so does its first row after another run's `start` row. So a run that comes back to a log in a later turn first reads the log's last rows to see whether another run wrote since. A `start` row names the `ts` range of the rows before it that this run did not write, and its evidence names this run, such as its agent id. Use phase `start` for nothing else.
+
+## Where it lives
+
+By default the log is a working artifact, not committed. Keep it at `decisions.tsv` in the work dir, or `.audit/<task-slug>.tsv` when several efforts run at once, and leave it out of git.
+
+Commit it only when the work is ambitious enough that a reviewer needs the trail to trust the result.
+
+## Rules
+
+- Append-only. A wrong call gets a new row that supersedes it. Never edit or delete history.
+- Prefer evidence produced by committed scripts over hand-made one-offs (the **encode-lessons-in-structure** principle skill).
+
+## Audit the log against the transcript
+
+At the end of the run, before handing back, check the log told the truth. Read this run's transcript under the active workspace's `agent-transcripts/` directory (the system prompt names the path). Don't glob across every workspace's transcript root. That reads unrelated private chats. Walk this run's rows against what actually happened. Each stretch of them begins at one of this run's `start` rows, or at the first row if this run created the log, and ends at the next `start` row of another run:
+
+- Check that every row maps to a real decision or action.
+- Check that each row's evidence resolves and shows what the row claims.
+- A fork, pivot, or abandoned approach that shaped the work but isn't logged is a gap. Add it.
+
+Correct the log, not the story. The audit never edits or removes a row, even an invented one. When a row records neither a real decision nor a real action, or its claim or evidence is wrong, add a row that supersedes it with what actually happened and a pointer that resolves. This audit does not check rows outside this run's stretches. If this run's own work shows one of them is wrong, supersede it like any wrong call.
+
+## Cross-model review of the trail
+
+Before handing back, spawn a subagent on a different model family from the one that did the work. Self-review is not a substitute. The subagent reads the audit trail and the run's transcript, then flags what the user should pay attention to. Not a redo of the work, a scan for what's suboptimal or risky.
+
+- Decisions logged with weak or absent evidence.
+- Verification steps skipped or claimed without proof in the transcript.
+- Choices that look risky in hindsight (premature, scope-creeping, papering over a symptom).
+- Gaps the user would otherwise miss on a casual skim.
+
+Every reply for a run that produced a trail ends with an "Attention" section. Lead with the reviewer's model on its own line (`reviewed by <model>`), then list each flag pointing to specific rows or moments. "No flags" is a valid value. The model name is not.
+
+## Reviewing the trail
+
+Read top to bottom, follow the evidence pointers, spot-check. GitHub renders a committed TSV as a table. `column -s$'\t' -t decisions.tsv` renders it in a terminal.
+
+## Composing this skill
+
+Other skills route their audit trail here instead of inventing one. Reference it by name and let it own the format. Don't restate the columns.

+
+# Swarm
+
+Fan out N parallel workers. They may cover separate slices, race the same brief, or mix both. The parent waits, aggregates, and returns one report.
+
+## Start
+
+Open a todolist with one entry per phase before launching anything.
+
+1. Frame
+2. Fan out
+3. Aggregate
+4. Report
+
+## Phase A: Frame
+
+1. State the done predicate and the artifact or report the swarm must return.
+2. Choose the shape. Partition into slices, race N workers on identical briefs, or mix both. For a race or mixed shape, declare `first pass`, `rank all`, or `best-of` before spawning.
+3. Set N from the user or derive it from the shape. N is total workers, not a platform concurrency limit.
+4. Pick the worker model from your configured `swarm workers` line. If the line is missing, use a fast model. For `auto` or `inherit-parent`, omit `model` so the workers run on the parent model. If the Task tool rejects a slug, use the default and say so. If it rejects the default, use the closest valid slug of the same family from its error message. For a model race, name each arm's model up front.
+5. Give each worker its own writable output when it writes. When workers verify or measure commits, each brief names the exact SHAs. A measurement brief also names the method (sample count, what one sample is, order). The worker records both in its result.
+
+## Phase B: Fan out
+
+Spawn all N workers in one message with `run_in_background: true`, and the step 4 model, left unset for `auto` or `inherit-parent`. Use a local worker only when it needs access to something on the user's computer.
+
+When a worker must start from a non-default pushed branch, name the base branch in its brief.
+
+Every brief stands alone. Include the goal, scope, exact slice or race arm, how to verify, and what to report. Reports use `PASS`, `ISSUES`, or `BLOCKED` with evidence. A worker that can prove a defect reports `ISSUES` and lists every issue it can prove, not only the first.
+
+If a worker drops out, proceed with N-1 and note it.
+
+## Phase C: Aggregate
+
+Read the terminal results. Drop a result that does not record the SHAs and method its brief names, and respawn that worker once. After a second miss, record a gap. A gap does not count as a pass. For coverage, every required slice needs a result. For a race, apply the selection rule declared up front. Use first pass, rank all, or best-of. Do not paste raw worker dumps.
+
+Keep a compact result table, one-line evidenced issues, and explicit gaps or dropouts.
+
+## Phase D: Report
+
+Return one consolidated in-chat report with the table, issue one-liners, gaps or dropouts, and the race rule when used.

+description: "Use only when the user explicitly asks for TDD, a failing test, or a regression test, OR when the bug has an obvious cheap local test target. Skip when the test path is unclear, expensive, integration-heavy, or not requested."
+---
+
+# TDD Bug Fix
+
+When fixing a bug with a clear, cheap test path, make the broken behavior executable before changing production code. The goal is a focused regression test that fails before the fix and passes after it.
+
+Do not force a test when it would be impractical. If the available test would require broad harness setup, brittle mocks, slow end-to-end infrastructure, production-only state, vague reproduction steps, or large unrelated fixture churn, skip adding a new test and use the closest useful verification instead.
+
+## Workflow
+
+1. **Understand the bug.** Identify the intended behavior, current behavior, affected path, and smallest observable reproduction.
+2. **Choose the narrowest executable check.** Prefer the closest unit, component, integration, or regression test already used for that codepath. If no practical test path is obvious, do not create one from scratch just to satisfy the workflow.
+3. **Write the failing test first.** Add the smallest focused test that would have caught the bug. The test should encode intended behavior, not mirror the current implementation.
+4. **Run the new test before fixing.** Confirm it fails for the intended reason. If it passes or fails for an unrelated reason, correct the test or reproduction before editing the implementation.
+5. **Fix the bug.** Make the smallest production change that satisfies the intended behavior while preserving nearby contracts.
+6. **Rerun the regression test.** Confirm the test now passes.
+
+## If a Failing Test Is Impractical
+
+Use the closest executable regression check instead: a targeted script, manual reproduction command, browser automation, snapshot comparison, log assertion, or focused integration check.
+
+Prefer no new test over a bad test. A bad test is one that mostly tests mocks, encodes current implementation details, depends on timing or unrelated global state, needs expensive infrastructure for a small fix, or would be deleted immediately after proving the fix.
+
+## Guardrails
+
+- Do not change tests merely to match a wrong implementation.
+- Do not weaken existing assertions unless the expected behavior has genuinely changed and the reason is clear.
+- Keep the regression test focused on the bug. Avoid broad fixture churn or unrelated coverage expansion.
+- If the bug is flaky, make the test deterministic where possible and document the signal being locked down.
+- If the bug exposes a broader class of failures, first land the focused regression path, then consider additional sibling coverage.
+
+## Final Response
+
+Report the evidence, not just the outcome:
+
+- Name the failing-before test or executable check and the failure it produced.
+- Name the passing-after test run and any nearby validation performed.
+- If failing-before evidence could not be demonstrated, state why and describe the closest regression check used instead.
