Reviews implementation plans against repository evidence and current authoritative guidance. Use before execution to expose gaps and risks; not for completed delivery review.

A test case the skill fixed. Same model, same prompt, with and without the skill.
When evaluating high-stakes financial refactoring plan `docs/plans/ledger-migration.md`, you decide to run an independent subagent review challenge. How many review rounds should be executed?
| Checked | Without skill | With skill |
|---|---|---|
| Cap independent challenge evaluation at a single bounded pass. | Missed | Passed |
The instructions your model reads when the skill loads.
Goal: Perform a read-only, evidence-first second pass over an implementation plan. Verify the plan; do not execute it. A strong result is decision-complete, grounded in the actual repository, explicit about uncertainty, no more complex than the problem requires, and expressed in the fewest words and execution steps that preserve safety.
Execution contract: The ordered checkboxes are the Definition of Done. Track every item internally as PENDING, PROVEN with concrete evidence, CLEARED with evidence that its condition is absent, or UNPROVEN with a gap; reading, delegation, or tool failure is not proof. Reconcile items after each section. Before returning, resolve all PENDING and count only PROVEN and CLEARED; apply the skill's verdict and approval rules to every gap.
Preserve user intent, scope, and existing authorization. Continue authorized work; ask only for consequential unresolved choices or required external approval. Scale depth to material risk without silently skipping checks. Preserve dependency and safety ordering; otherwise choose the verification method appropriate to each obligation.
| Need | Preferred tool | Use it when | Fallback |
|---|---|---|---|
| Repository instructions and current state | Native file read plus Git | Always read the active host's applicable repository instructions; use git status, diff, and history when branch or change context matters | Equivalent host file and shell tools |
| Paths, text, config, docs, and focused code reads | Native file listing, search, outline, and range reads | The question is textual or structural and does not require symbol identity | Narrow the path and pattern before expanding content |
| Symbols, references, callers, implementations, cycles, and blast radius | Language server or host-native code intelligence | A plan changes existing code relationships, public APIs, module boundaries, or architecture | Targeted search plus direct inspection of definitions and consumers |
| Planned edit risk | Code intelligence plus caller and consumer search | The plan names an edit region, route, event, response contract, or existing change surface | Inspect named symbols and adjacent integration points manually |
| Build, test, migration, and script feasibility | Repository-defined commands through the shell | The plan depends on a command, baseline, generated artifact, or existing test surface being available | Inspect scripts and CI configuration; mark execution unverified |
| Correction and external-claim research | Official vendor documentation, specifications, or standards through documentation search or the web | External behavior or a correction depends on changing platform semantics | Reputable primary engineering material; otherwise mark the claim or correction UNVERIFIED |
| Independent challenge | Native subagents in separate contexts | A plan benefits from execution, fresh-context, or adversarial perspective | Run the selected perspectives once as one bounded self-review batch and report reduced independence |
Use the preferred tool only when it answers the current evidence question. Tool failure is not a domain finding: report reduced confidence and block only when missing evidence prevents a safe decision. Do not use semantic tooling for prose or configuration questions, and do not use web research to rediscover stable local facts.
| Evidence | Authority |
|---|---|
| Repository files, manifests, schemas, generated contracts, and executable behavior | Source of truth for the current project state |
| Official vendor documentation, specifications, RFCs, and security standards | Source of truth for external contracts and current supported behavior |
| Release notes and migration guides matching the project's actual version range | Source of truth for compatibility and upgrade claims |
| Reputable primary engineering material | Supporting evidence when official sources do not address a design tradeoff |
| Community discussion or training knowledge | Leads only; never sufficient for a blocking factual claim |
When sources disagree, prefer the repository for what is installed and implemented, and official documentation for what an external system promises. Repository evidence proves a plan defect; external practice sources justify the correction mechanism and cannot invent a local requirement. State disagreements instead of silently choosing the convenient answer.
