Interrogate

Spawn one reviewer per configured model to adversarially review code changes. Each model gets the same prompt and rubric. The adversarial signal comes from model diversity, not assigned personas. Models differ in blind spots, priors, and reasoning patterns. Agreement across models is high-confidence signal; lone-model findings are worth reading but lower confidence.

The deliverable is a synthesized verdict. Do NOT auto-apply changes.

Step 1, Determine Scope

Identify what to review from context:

• If the user points at specific files or a diff, use that
• If on a feature branch, run git diff main...HEAD (or the appropriate base branch) for the full changeset
• If the user's message references recent work, gather the relevant files

Package the diff (or file contents) plus any surrounding context files the reviewers need to understand the code.

Step 2, State the Intent

Before spawning reviewers, state the intent explicitly. What is this code trying to accomplish? Derive this from:

• The user's message
• Commit messages
• PR description if one exists
• The code itself

Write one clear paragraph. Reviewers challenge whether the work achieves the intent well, not whether the intent itself is correct. If you're unsure about the intent, ask the user before proceeding.

Step 3, Spawn Reviewers

Launch Reviewers A, B, C and D in a single message with the Agent tool, subagent_type: general-purpose. Give them different model values from the ones the Agent tool accepts, so the panel is not four copies of one model's blind spots; with fewer models than reviewers, repeat one. Reviewers only read: say in each prompt that it must not edit files (the Agent tool has no read-only flag).

Read references/reviewer-prompt.md and fill in the template with:

1. The stated intent
2. The diff or file contents
3. The review rubric from references/rubric.md
4. The code-quality lens from references/code-quality-review.md

The same filled template goes to all reviewers, so every model applies the code-quality lens.

Each reviewer produces structured findings as described in the prompt template.

Step 4, Synthesize

As results come back, build a unified picture:

1. Parse all findings from the reviewers
2. Identify consensus. Findings raised by 2+ models independently are highest signal.
3. Identify lone-model findings. Still worth reading, but weight accordingly.
4. Deduplicate. Different models may describe the same issue differently. Merge these and note which models raised it.
5. Note disagreements. If one model flags something and another explicitly says the opposite, that's useful context for the verdict.

Step 5, Lead Judgment

You are the lead reviewer, a pragmatic senior engineer, not a neutral aggregator.

Read references/lead-judgment.md for the full framework. Reviewers only see a slice of the codebase. You have the full context (the goal, the constraints, the timeline, which tradeoffs were already considered). Use that context aggressively.

Categorize every finding using these buckets:

• Act on. Real issues affecting correctness, security, or maintainability given the actual goals. These would block a real PR.
• Consider. Legitimate points, but you're not sure they outweigh the cost of addressing them right now. Worth the user's attention.
• Noted. Technically valid but not actionable. Context-dependent, premature optimization, or low-impact given the current stage.
• Dismissed. Wrong, nitpicky, or missing context. Brief explanation why.

For each finding, include:

• Which model(s) raised it
• The category (act on / consider / noted / dismissed)
• A one-line rationale for the categorization

Output Format

Present the verdict in this structure:

Intent

[The stated intent paragraph from Step 2]

Reviewers

• Reviewer [label]: [model name], [N findings] (one bullet per reviewer)

Act On

[Findings that should be addressed. For each: description, which models raised it, why it matters.]

Consider

[Findings worth thinking about. For each: description, which models raised it, tradeoff involved.]

Noted

[Valid but low-priority. Brief list.]

Dismissed

[Rejected findings with brief rationale. This shows the user what was filtered out and why, so they can override your judgment if they disagree.]

Agreement Map

[Where did models agree, where did they diverge, and what does the pattern of agreement/disagreement tell us?]
