+- YOU MUST ALWAYS SPEAK OUTPUT in your Agent communication style with the config `{communication_language}`
+- When `{spec_file}` is set, always write findings to the story file before offering action choices.
+- `decision-needed` findings must be resolved before handling `patch` findings.
+
+## INSTRUCTIONS
+
+### 1. Clean review shortcut
+
+If zero findings remain after triage (all dismissed or none raised): state that and proceed to section 6 (Sprint Status Update).
+
+### 2. Write findings to the story file
+
+If `{spec_file}` exists and contains a Tasks/Subtasks section, append a `### Review Findings` subsection. Write all findings in this order:
+
+1. **`decision-needed`** findings (unchecked):
+   `- [ ] [Review][Decision] <Title> — <Detail>`
+
+2. **`patch`** findings (unchecked):
+   `- [ ] [Review][Patch] <Title> [<file>:<line>]`
+
+3. **`defer`** findings (checked off, marked deferred):
+   `- [x] [Review][Defer] <Title> [<file>:<line>] — deferred, pre-existing`
+
+Also append each `defer` finding to `{deferred_work_file}` under a heading `## Deferred from: code review ({date})`. If `{spec_file}` is set, include its basename in the heading (e.g., `code review of story-3.3 (2026-03-18)`). One bullet per finding with description.
+
+### 3. Present summary
+
+Announce what was written:
+
+> **Code review complete.** <D> `decision-needed`, <P> `patch`, <W> `defer`, <R> dismissed as noise.
+
+If `{spec_file}` is set, add: `Findings written to the review findings section in {spec_file}.`
+Otherwise add: `Findings are listed above. No story file was provided, so nothing was persisted.`
+
+### 4. Resolve decision-needed findings
+
+If `decision_needed` findings exist, present each one with its detail and the options available. The user must decide — the correct fix is ambiguous without their input. Walk through each finding (or batch related ones) and get the user's call. Once resolved, each becomes a `patch`, `defer`, or is dismissed.
+
+If the user chooses to defer, ask: Quick one-line reason for deferring this item? (helps future reviews): — then append that reason to both the story file bullet and the `{deferred_work_file}` entry.
+
+**HALT** — I am waiting for your numbered choice. Reply with only the number (or "0" for batch). Do not proceed until you select an option.
+
+### 5. Handle `patch` findings
+
+If `patch` findings exist (including any resolved from step 4), HALT. Ask the user:
+
+If `{spec_file}` is set, present all three options (if >3 `patch` findings exist, also show option 0):
+
+> **How would you like to handle the <Z> `patch` findings?**
+> 0. **Batch-apply all** — automatically fix every non-controversial patch (recommended when there are many)
+> 1. **Fix them automatically** — I will apply fixes now
+> 2. **Leave as action items** — they are already in the story file
+> 3. **Walk through each** — let me show details before deciding

+**HALT** — I am waiting for your numbered choice. Reply with only the number (or "0" for batch). Do not proceed until you select an option.
+

+- **Option 1**: Apply each fix. After all patches are applied, present a summary of changes made. If `{spec_file}` is set, check off the items in the story file.
+- **Option 2** (only when `{spec_file}` is set): Done — findings are already written to the story.

+
+Skip this section if `{spec_file}` is not set.
+
+#### Determine new status based on review outcome
+

+
+Save the story file.
+
+#### Sync sprint-status.yaml
+
+If `{story_key}` is not set, skip this subsection and note that sprint status was not synced because no story key was available.
+
+If `{sprint_status}` file exists:
+
+1. Load the FULL `{sprint_status}` file.
+2. Find the `development_status` entry matching `{story_key}`.
+3. If found: update `development_status[{story_key}]` to `{new_status}`. Update `last_updated` to current date. Save the file, preserving ALL comments and structure including STATUS DEFINITIONS.
+4. If `{story_key}` not found in sprint status: warn the user that the story file was updated but sprint-status sync failed.

+> **What would you like to do next?**
+> 1. **Start the next story** — run `dev-story` to pick up the next `ready-for-dev` story

+2. Classify each finding. The first three categories are **this story's problem** — caused or exposed by the current change. The last two are **not this story's problem**.
    - **intent_gap** — caused by the change; cannot be resolved from the spec because the captured intent is incomplete. Do not infer intent unless there is exactly one possible reading.
    - **bad_spec** — caused by the change, including direct deviations from spec. The spec should have been clear enough to prevent it. When in doubt between bad_spec and patch, prefer bad_spec — a spec-level fix is more likely to produce coherent code.
    - **patch** — caused by the change; trivially fixable without human input. Just part of the diff.
    - **defer** — pre-existing issue not caused by this story, surfaced incidentally by the review. Collect for later focused attention.
    - **reject** — noise. Drop silently. When unsure between defer and reject, prefer reject — only defer findings you are confident are real.
-3. Process findings in cascading order. If intent_gap or bad_spec findings exist, they trigger a loopback — lower findings are moot since code will be re-derived. If neither exists, process patch and defer normally. Increment `{specLoopIteration}` on each loopback. If it exceeds 5, HALT and escalate to the human. On any loopback, re-evaluate routing — if scope has grown beyond one-shot, escalate `execution_mode` to plan-code-review.

If neither exists, process patch and defer normally. Increment `{specLoopIteration}` on each loopback. If it exceeds 5, HALT and escalate to the human.
    - **intent_gap** — Root cause is inside `<frozen-after-approval>`. Revert code changes. Loop back to the human to resolve. Once resolved, read fully and follow `./step-02-plan.md` to re-run steps 2–4.
    - **bad_spec** — Root cause is outside `<frozen-after-approval>`. Before reverting code: extract KEEP instructions for positive preservation (what worked well and must survive re-derivation). Revert code changes. Read the `## Spec Change Log` in `{spec_file}` and strictly respect all logged constraints when amending the non-frozen sections that contain the root cause. Append a new change-log entry recording: the triggering finding, what was amended, the known-bad state avoided, and the KEEP instructions. Read fully and follow `./step-03-implement.md` to re-derive the code, then this step will run again.
    - **patch** — Auto-fix. These are the only findings that survive loopbacks.
    - **defer** — Append to `{deferred_work_file}`.
    - **reject** — Drop silently.

+
+### Generate Suggested Review Order
+
+Read `{baseline_commit}` from `{spec_file}` frontmatter and construct the diff of all changes since that commit.
+
+Append the review order as a `## Suggested Review Order` section to `{spec_file}` **after the last existing section**. Do not modify the Code Map.
+
+Build the trail as an ordered sequence of **stops** — clickable `path:line` references with brief framing — optimized for a human reviewer reading top-down to understand the change:
+
+1. **Order by concern, not by file.** Group stops by the conceptual concern they address (e.g., "validation logic", "schema change", "UI binding"). A single file may appear under multiple concerns.
+2. **Lead with the entry point** — the single highest-leverage file:line a reviewer should look at first to grasp the design intent.
+3. **Inside each concern**, order stops from most important / architecturally interesting to supporting. Lightly bias toward higher-risk or boundary-crossing stops.
+4. **End with peripherals** — tests, config, types, and other supporting changes come last.
+5. **Every code reference is a clickable workspace-relative link** (project-root-relative for clickability in the editor). Format each stop as a markdown link: `[short-name:line](/project-root-relative/path/to/file.ts#L42)`. The link target uses a leading `/` (workspace root) with a `#L` line anchor. Use the file's basename (or shortest unambiguous suffix) plus line number as the link text.
+6. **Each stop gets one ultra-concise line of framing** (≤15 words) — why this approach was chosen here and what it achieves in the context of the change. No paragraphs.
+
+Format each stop as framing first, link on the next indented line:
+
+```markdown
+## Suggested Review Order
+
+**{Concern name}**
+
+- {one-line framing}
+  [`file.ts:42`](/src/path/to/file.ts#L42)
+
+- {one-line framing}
+  [`other.ts:17`](/src/path/to/other.ts#L17)
+
+**{Next concern}**
+
+- {one-line framing}
+  [`file.ts:88`](/src/path/to/file.ts#L88)
+```
+
+When there is only one concern, omit the bold label — just list the stops directly.
+
+### Commit and Present
+
+1. Change `{spec_file}` status to `done` in the frontmatter.
+2. If version control is available and the tree is dirty, create a local commit with a conventional message derived from the spec title.
+3. Open the spec in the user's editor so they can click through the Suggested Review Order:
+   - Run `code -r "{spec_file}"` to open the spec in the current VS Code window (reuses the window where the project or worktree is open). Always double-quote the path to handle spaces and special characters.
+   - If `code` is not available (command fails), skip gracefully and tell the user the spec file path instead.
+4. Display summary of your work to the user, including the commit hash if one was created. Any file paths shown in conversation/terminal output must use CWD-relative format (no leading `/`) for terminal clickability — this differs from spec-file links which use project-root-relative paths. Include:
+   - A note that the spec is open in their editor (or the file path if it couldn't be opened). Mention that `{spec_file}` now contains a Suggested Review Order.
+   - **Navigation tip:** "Ctrl+click (Cmd+click on macOS) the links in the Suggested Review Order to jump to each stop."
+   - Offer to push and/or create a pull request.
+
+Workflow complete.

+- YOU MUST ALWAYS SPEAK OUTPUT in your Agent communication style with the config `{communication_language}`
+- NEVER auto-push.
+
+## INSTRUCTIONS
+
+### Implement
+
+Implement the clarified intent directly.
+
+### Review
+
+Invoke the `bmad-review-adversarial-general` skill in a subagent with the changed files. The subagent gets NO conversation context — to avoid anchoring bias. If no sub-agents are available, write the changed files to a review prompt file in `{implementation_artifacts}` and HALT. Ask the human to run the review in a separate session and paste back the findings.
+
+### Classify
+
+Deduplicate all review findings. Three categories only:
+
+- **patch** — trivially fixable. Auto-fix immediately.
+- **defer** — pre-existing issue not caused by this change. Append to `{deferred_work_file}`.
+- **reject** — noise. Drop silently.
+
+If a finding is caused by this change but too significant for a trivial patch, HALT and present it to the human for decision before proceeding.
+
+### Commit
+
+If version control is available and the tree is dirty, create a local commit with a conventional message derived from the intent. If VCS is unavailable, skip.
+
+### Present
+
+1. Open all changed files in the user's editor so they can review the code directly:
+   - Run `code -r "{project-root}" <changed-file-paths>` — the project root as the first argument, then each changed file path. Always double-quote paths with spaces.
+   - If `code` is not available (command fails), skip gracefully and list the file paths instead.
+2. Display a summary in conversation output, including:
+   - The commit hash (if one was created).
+   - List of files changed with one-line descriptions.
+   - Review findings breakdown: patches applied, items deferred, items rejected. If all findings were rejected, say so.
+3. Offer to push and/or create a pull request.
+
+HALT and wait for human input.
+
+Workflow complete.
