Paths: File paths (shared/, references/, ../ln-*) are relative to skills repo root. If not found at CWD, locate this SKILL.md directory and go up one level for repo root.

Agent Reviewer (Universal)

Runs parallel external agent reviews on arbitrary context, critically verifies suggestions, returns filtered improvements.

Purpose & Scope

• Standalone utility in 0XX category (like ln-003, ln-004)
• Delegate any context to codex-review + gemini-review as background tasks in parallel
• Context always passed via file references (never inline in prompt)
• Process results as they arrive (first-finished agent processed immediately)
• Critically verify each suggestion; debate with agent if Claude disagrees
• Return filtered, deduplicated, verified suggestions

When to Use

• Manual invocation by user for independent review of any artifact
• Called by any skill needing external second opinion on plans, decisions, documents
• NOT tied to Linear, NOT tied to any pipeline
• Works with any context that can be saved to a file

Parameters

Inputs

Context delivery rule: Context is ALWAYS passed via files.

• If context already exists as files (plans, docs, code) -> pass file paths directly
• If context is a statement/decision from chat -> caller creates a temporary file in .agent-review/context/ with the content, then passes the file path

Workflow

MANDATORY READ: Load shared/references/agent_review_workflow.md for Health Check, Ensure .agent-review/, Run Agents, Critical Verification + Debate, Aggregate + Return, Fallback Rules, Critical Rules, and Definition of Done. Load shared/references/agent_delegation_pattern.md for Reference Passing Pattern, Review Persistence Pattern, Agent Timeout Policy, and Debate Protocol.

Unique Steps (before shared workflow)

1. Health check: per shared workflow, filter by skill_group = 005.

2. Resolve identifier: If identifier not provided, generate review_YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS. Sanitize: lowercase, replace spaces with hyphens, ASCII only.

3. Ensure .agent-review/: per shared workflow. Additionally create .agent-review/context/ subdir if it doesn’t exist (for materialized context files).

4. Materialize context (if needed): If context is from chat/conversation (not an existing file):

   • Write content to .agent-review/context/{identifier}_context.md
   • Add this path to context_files list

5. Build prompt: Read template shared/agents/prompt_templates/context_review.md.

   • Replace {review_title} with title or "Context Review"
   • Replace {context_refs} with bullet list: - {path} per context file
   • Replace {focus_areas} with filtered subset or "All default areas" if no focus specified
   • Save to .agent-review/{identifier}_contextreview_prompt.md (single shared file — both agents read the same prompt)

Shared Workflow Steps

6-8) Run agents, Critical Verification + Debate, Aggregate + Return: per shared workflow.

• {review_type} = review_title or “Context Review” (for challenge template {review_type} placeholder)
• {story_ref} placeholder in challenge template = identifier

Output Format

verdict: CONTEXT_ACCEPTABLE | SUGGESTIONS | SKIPPED
suggestions:
  - area: "logic | feasibility | completeness | consistency | best_practices | risk"
    issue: "What is wrong or could be improved"
    suggestion: "Specific actionable change"
    confidence: 95
    impact_percent: 15
    source: "codex-review"
    resolution: "accepted | accepted_after_debate | accepted_after_followup | rejected"

Agent stats and debate log per shared workflow output schema.

Verdict Escalation

• No escalation. Suggestions are advisory only.
• Caller decides how to apply accepted suggestions.
