Fresh-Eyes Review
Core Principle
"NO COMMIT WITHOUT FRESH-EYES REVIEW FIRST"
This represents a final quality gate executed after implementation completion, passing tests, and peer review. The discipline applies universally, even without explicit skill activation.
Key Distinctions
Fresh-eyes review differs fundamentally from testing and code review:
| Approach | Focus | Blind Spots |
|---|---|---|
| Testing | Validates expected behavior | Can't test for unknown edge cases |
| Code review | Patterns and quality | Reviewer trusts author's intent |
| Fresh-eyes | Deliberate re-reading with psychological distance | Catches what you thought was correct |
Critical insight: "100% test coverage and passing scenarios" can coexist with "critical bugs" waiting discovery.
