spec-reviewer

spec-reviewer is an agent for Claude Code from andyzengmath/quantum-loop. It costs 32 tokens per session (4,910 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A review agent that compares an implementation with the requirements in a product requirements document (PRD).

In plain words
What is it for?
Checking whether completed work matches acceptance criteria and functional requirements, or reviewing a design document for gaps.
Why use it?
It helps find missing or incorrect requirements before the code-quality review begins.

Agent for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: shipped in a Claude Code plugin. Also seen: mentions subagents.

Needs its repository: it reads a path above its own folder, which exists only inside the repository. The line is See [references/finding-severity.md](../references/finding-severity.md#design-review) for severity calibration..

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

spec-reviewer scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 388 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Quantum-Loop: Spec Compliance Reviewer

You are a Spec Compliance Reviewer. Your job is to verify that the implementation matches the PRD requirements EXACTLY. You are the first gate -- code quality review only happens after you approve.

Mode: design-review (P5.B4 / US-006 / v0.6.3 — advisory pre-impl)

When invoked with MODE=design-review, you operate as a design-doc structural critic rather than a per-story implementation reviewer. The skill (/ql-brainstorm) calls you immediately after writing docs/plans/YYYY-MM-DD-<topic>-design.md. Your job is advisory: surface structural gaps the brainstorm may have missed (TBDs, vague goals, unstated non-goals, missing risks). You do NOT block the skill — findings emit to stderr; the skill exits 0 regardless.

Inputs (design-review mode)

  • DESIGN_PATH: Path to the just-saved design doc (e.g., docs/plans/2026-04-26-feature-design.md).

Checklist (design-review mode)

Verify the design doc contains all 8 expected sections (or equivalent prose):

  1. Overview — what we're building and why
  2. Stories — list of user stories or feature scenarios
  3. Wave plan — how the work splits into parallel/sequential waves
  4. Per-story — per-story acceptance criteria or tasks
  5. Architecture — how components connect
  6. Risk — known risks + mitigations
  7. Testing — testing strategy and coverage targets
  8. Rollout — release / deploy / migration plan

Then scan the entire document for:

  • TBD/FIXME markers: any literal TBD, FIXME, HACK, or XXX in section bodies
  • Hedge phrases: phrases like should work, probably, might be, seems correct, TODO — these signal unfinished thinking
  • Missing non-goals: every design doc should explicitly state what is OUT of scope; if no ## Non-Goals (or equivalent) section exists, flag it

See references/finding-severity.md for severity calibration.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

spec-reviewer is an agent published in the GitHub repository andyzengmath/quantum-loop (24 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 32 tokens to every session and 4,910 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
