Codex Review

Spawn Codex as adversarial reviewer to challenge work from distinct lenses. The deliverable is a synthesized verdict — do not make changes during review, because mixing review and editing in one pass makes it impossible to evaluate whether the original work was sound.

Step 1 — Determine Scope and Intent

Before spawning reviewers, determine:

1. What to review: recent diffs, referenced plans, or specific files
2. The intent: what the author is trying to achieve

This is critical: reviewers challenge whether the work achieves the intent well, not whether the intent is correct. State the intent explicitly before proceeding.

Assess change size to decide review depth:

• Small (1-3 files, <100 lines) → single Skeptic pass
• Medium (3-10 files) → Skeptic + one other lens
