Lineage

Antimatter draws from Cursor's Thermo-Nuclear Code Quality Review, Matt Pocock's skills, especially his code-review skill, and Ozzy's correctness-first design philosophy. The result is an elevated correctness-oriented code-quality review: ambitious about structure, but unwilling to report anything it cannot prove.

Overview

This skill performs the strictest available structural read of a change. It targets the ambitious restructurings a conventional review omits — simplifications that preserve behavior while collapsing whole categories of complexity — and reports them with zero tolerance for false positives.

The standard is not aggression. The dominant failure mode of a strict review is severity theater: findings invented or inflated to satisfy a "be harsh" instruction, which buries real signal and degrades trust. The standard here is annihilation. A finding is reported only if it survives an adversarial refutation pass, carries a concrete before→after, and is shown to preserve behavior. Everything that fails any of those is destroyed before output.

The report is short, ranked, and entirely load-bearing. A review incapable of returning a clean approval is itself defective.
