No comments

Comments lie. Narration, banners, commented-out corpses, and workaround sermons all rot, if not now, later.

Scope

Use the caller's files or diff. Otherwise use the current diff against the base branch, including the working tree.

Review

Delegate the review to a fresh, read-only subagent. Pass it the scope and the rubric below. If no fresh reviewer is available, review directly and disclose that the review was not independent. The reviewer reports only and never edits files.

Kill every comment except:

• Legal or license headers.
• Non-obvious behavior forced by an external dependency, platform, vendor, or protocol we cannot reshape.
• Lint suppression whose rule is faulty, pedantic, or style-only.
• Doc comments that define a public API contract.
• Issue or RFC links that explain a constraint code cannot express.
