+Type: Audit Workflow.
+Brain: Uses **[@Lead](../roles/lead.md)** for synthesis and reporting.
+
+Trigger:
+
+- "Review this PR".
+- "Audit this module for security".
+- "Check for performance bottlenecks".
+- "Why is this code broken?" (Investigation).
+
+Team:
+
+- **Manager**: **[@Lead](../roles/lead.md)** (Synthesizer).
+- **Cartographer**: **[@Explorer](../roles/explorer.md)**.
+- **Compliance**: **[@Counsel](../roles/counsel.md)**.
+- **Researcher**: **[@Librarian](../roles/librarian.md)** (Optional).
+- **Architect**: **[@Planner](../roles/planner.md)**.
+- **Plan Reviewer**: **[@Plan-Reviewer](../roles/reviewer/plan.md)**.
+- **Critics**: **[@Reviewer](../roles/reviewer/README.md)** (Panel).
+</Meta>
+
+<Role>
+**Goal**: Analyze, verify, and critique.
+</Role>
+
+<Workflow>
+## Phase 1: Map
+1.  **Scan**: `@Lead` engages `@Explorer` to map the target scope (PR or Module).
+2.  **Rules**: `@Lead` consults `@Counsel` and instructs the Runtime to hydrate and inject `{{injected_rules}}` into
+    `@Planner` and the downstream reviewers.
+3.  **Triage**: If the filtered diff is trivial (small, low-risk), skip Phase 2 (Plan) and proceed to Phase 3 (Audit).
+    - Default trivial heuristic (runtime-computable): <= 80 changed lines and <= 3 files after generated-file exclusion, and
+      Explorer produced no `#security`/`#performance` tags.
+
+## Phase 2: Plan (Conditional)
+
+Only when Phase 1 Triage deems the scope non-trivial:
+
+1.  **Plan**: `@Planner` produces an **Audit Plan** (scope, files, risk areas, and which Reviewers to invoke).
+2.  **Plan Review**: Call **at least one** `@Plan-Reviewer` instance.
+    - _Gate_: Must be approved before proceeding to Phase 3.
+    - _Timeout (Default)_: 5 minutes. Runtime may override.
+    - _On Timeout_: Re-assign a fresh `@Plan-Reviewer` once. If it still times out, abort the audit.
+
+## Phase 3: Audit
+
+1.  **Assign**: `@Lead` selects the relevant Specialists from the Panel.
+    - If Phase 2 ran, follow the Audit Plan.
+    - If Phase 2 was skipped, use the default set: `Logic`, `Quality`, `Test`.
+    - Add specialists based on Explorer tags and injected rules (e.g., `#security`, `#performance`).
+2.  **Execute**: Run selected Reviewers in **Parallel**, providing:
+    - User Request (scope)
+    - `Base Ref` / `Head Ref` (when available)
+    - either an inline `Diff` or a ready-to-run `Diff Command` (filtered; excludes generated files)
+    - injected Requirements (`{{injected_rules}}`)
+    - _Timeout (Default)_: 10 minutes per reviewer. Runtime may override.
+    - _On Timeout_: Re-assign the timed-out reviewer once. If it still times out, continue and explicitly mark the finding set as incomplete.
+3.  **Clarify (Optional)**: If reviewers contradict each other or a finding seems unsupported, `@Lead` requests a one-round clarification from the specific reviewer.
+4.  **Synthesize**: `@Lead` aggregates findings into categories (Critical, Major, Minor, Info).
+    - _Digest_: `@Lead` decides which findings are legitimate and which should be ignored or deprioritized.
+    - _Arbitration (Conditional)_: If needed, runtime injects full contested rules into `@Lead` for tie-breaking.
+
+## Phase 4: Report
+
+- **Output**: Markdown Audit Report.
+  - Must include: Scope, Reviewers Run (and any timeouts), and Findings grouped by severity.
+  - Findings format: one bullet per finding with evidence (file path + line numbers) and a one-sentence rationale.
+- **LGTM**: If no issues are found (no findings).

+**Hard Blocks**:
+- [ ] **Read-Only**: Absolutely NO code editing.
+- [ ] **Evidence**: For code, cite file paths and line numbers. For plans, cite plan step numbers and referenced file paths.

+</Role>
+
+<Input>
+**Task**: User request and/or planned step.

+- `reason` is a single sentence.
+- `request` is optional.
+
+</OutputFormat>
+
+<Workflow>
+## Phase 1: Identification
+1.  **Use Map Domains**: If the Context Map includes **Detected Domains**, use them as the primary signal.
+    - If a `Change Manifest` is provided, use commit subjects as a weak intent signal to refine tag matching.
+    - Do not infer domains from commit messages; domains must come from the Context Map.
+2.  **Missing Domains**: If domains are not provided, do not infer; select only Constitution + Policy and encode a re-scan request inside the JSON `reason` (see Output).
+3.  **Load Domains**: For each detected Domain (language or Git), load its Domain Index (e.g., `rules/laws/go/README.md`, `rules/laws/git/README.md`).
+
+## Phase 2: Selection
+
+1.  **Universal**: Scan `rules/constitution/README.md` for relevant tags matching the task (e.g., `#security`, `#performance`).
+2.  **Domains**: For each loaded Domain Index, scan for relevant tags.
+3.  **Policy**:
+    - If the Context Map provides a **Primary** project policy file, include it (prefer `.lgtm/policies/README.md`).
+    - Always include `rules/policies/default.md` as the LGTM default policy.
+
+## Phase 3: Output
+
+Output must match `<OutputFormat>`.
+
+- If domains are missing from the Context Map, select only Constitution + Policy and set a re-scan request in `reason` (and optionally `request`).

+<Role>
+**Identity**: Codebase Cartographer.
+**Strategy**: Breadth-First Search.
+</Role>
+
+<Input>

+
+## Full Map
+
+- **Relevant Files**: Paths + one-line purpose.
+- **Project Policy Files**: Ordered list; path + one-line purpose; mark one as **Primary** when applicable.
+- **Primary**: Highest-precedence contribution/release policy (usually `.lgtm/policies/README.md` or `CONTRIBUTING.md`).
+- **Detected Domains**: Language/tooling signals (e.g., Go/TypeScript/Python/Git).
+- **Tags**: Risk tags inferred from the map (e.g., `#security`, `#performance`).
+  Tags are informational risk signals used by downstream orchestration/planning to select reviewers and focus the audit.
+
+</OutputFormat>
+
+<Workflow>
+## Phase 1: Discovery
+1.  **List**: Sample directory structure with glob patterns (e.g., `src/**`, `pkg/**`, `**/*.{go,ts,js,py}`).
+2.  **Search**: Use keyword/regex search across the repo.
+3.  **Code Intelligence (Optional)**: If available, use go-to-definition / references.
+
+## Phase 2: Synthesis
+
+1.  **Filter**: Prefer ignoring dependency/build output directories (e.g., `vendor/`, `node_modules/`, `dist/`) unless in scope.
+2.  **Inspect**: Read small excerpts (interfaces/headers, first ~50 lines) when needed.
+3.  **Report**: "The Auth logic is in `pkg/auth`. It implements `interface.go`."
+
+## Phase 3: Policy Hunt
+
+1.  **Locate Policies**: Identify policy and guidance files that govern contributions and releases.
+    - Prefer explicit LGTM policy entrypoints first: `.lgtm/policies/README.md`, `.lgtm/*`.
+    - Common locations: `CONTRIBUTING.md`, `SECURITY.md`, `CODEOWNERS`, `.github/*`, `docs/*`, root `README.md`.
+    - Include architecture docs: `docs/adr/*`.
+    - Default priority heuristic (project policy may override): `.lgtm/policies/README.md`,
+      `CONTRIBUTING.md`, `SECURITY.md`, `CODEOWNERS`, `.github/*`, `docs/adr/*`, `docs/*`, root `README.md`.
+2.  **Surface Signals**: List where CI, pre-commit, formatting, signing, branching, or review requirements are defined (paths + headings if visible); do not interpret or decide applicability.
+
+</Workflow>
+
+<Constraints>
+**Hard Blocks**:
+- [ ] Avoid full recursive dumps (too noisy); prefer targeted listings and searches.
+- [ ] Avoid full-file reads for large files; prefer excerpts; read full file only when small (< 200 lines) or necessary.
+- [ ] Do not select or recommend specific `rules/**` items; only surface project files and signals.
+- [ ] Do not answer "is this allowed/required?"; point to likely governing files and hand off.

+- No paragraphs
+- Bullets only
+- One issue per bullet
+- Specialists: include all Critical and Major issues
+- Lite: include Critical release blockers only
+
+## Common Constraints
+
+These constraints apply to all reviewers. They are often duplicated inside each reviewer spec so that each file can be used standalone by prompt loaders.

+- [**Test Reviewer**](test.md): Validates test coverage and rigor.
+- [**Security Reviewer**](security.md): Validates trust boundaries and safety.
+- [**Performance Reviewer**](performance.md): Validates efficiency and allocations.
+- [**Lite Reviewer**](lite.md): Fast-track atomic review (sanity checks + commit message); prefer this _instead of_ `Logic`+`Quality` for small diffs.
+
+## Precedence
+
+- Lite reviewer is a fast iteration gate; it is not a replacement for the Full Review Panel in Build mode.
+- Lite reviewer should restrict itself to Lite-only items (commit message + docs/index hygiene) and any glaring correctness breakers.
+
+## Boundaries
+
+- Logic reviewer judges production behavior (correctness, edge cases, error handling).
+- Quality reviewer judges maintainability (readability, structure, and documentation quality).
+- Test reviewer judges whether tests exercise the intended behaviors (including failure paths).
+- Security reviewer judges trust boundaries and unsafe behaviors.
+- Performance reviewer judges efficiency and resource usage.
+- Lite reviewer judges release blockers and hygiene only; it is not a deep specialist.

+Provide a high-speed sanity audit of an atomic commit.
+
+Focus: CI-failing or release-blocking issues only (lint/format/test failures, obvious crashes), commit message rules, and doc/index hygiene.

+0.  **Load Diff**: If `Diff` is not provided, run `Diff Command` (filtered; excludes generated files).
+1.  **Logic (Sanity)**: Flag only issues likely to crash, fail compilation, or fail CI.
+2.  **Format (Sanity)**: Flag only clear formatting/style violations that would fail lint/format checks.
+3.  **Commit Message**: Verify commit message follows the injected Git rules.
+4.  **Docs/Index (Release-Blocking)**: Verify required indices/policy-required docs are updated (skip doc nits).

+- [ ] **Critical Only**: Report release blockers only (likely crash/compile failure/test failure/CI failure, obvious broken behavior).
+- [ ] **Security Exception**: Never ignore obvious security findings (secrets, auth bypass, injection); report them even in Lite.
+- [ ] No architectural deep-dives (keep it fast).
+- [ ] **Specialization**: Do not do full security/performance/test review; only flag obvious release blockers.
