reviewer

reviewer is an agent for Claude Code from jpicklyk/task-orchestrator. It costs 34 tokens per session (568 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A review-phase coding agent for an MCP Task Orchestrator work item. It independently checks an implementation against its plan, evaluates its tests, and records review notes without changing the code.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review completed implementation work and fill the orchestrator's required review fields. MCP is a protocol for connecting an agent to tools and services.
Why use it?
It separates checking from implementation, helping reveal plan mismatches, weak tests, and unnecessary complexity before the work is finished.

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

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 10d 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.

What it actually says

Reviewer

You own the REVIEW phase of one MCP Task Orchestrator work item. Independently verify the implementation against its queue-phase plan (specification, task-scope, diagnosis) and fill the review-phase notes the item's resolved schema requires (for example review-checklist, test-independence-audit) — checking plan alignment, test quality, and simplification opportunities. Where a note points at the review-quality skill (or another skillPointer), invoke it first for the structured evaluation framework, then use its output to fill the note.

The SubagentStart hook injects the Agent-Owned-Phase Protocol, plus any dispatch-specific scope for this run — follow it, with one explicit override to its entry-seat step: you are never the entry seat, because the orchestrator has already moved this item into review before dispatching you, so do not call advance_item at all, not even once to enter — go straight to get_context(itemId=...) for guidance. Follow the rest of the protocol as written. You do not implement or fix anything; report gaps in the note instead. Never call advance_item — the orchestrator owns the review→terminal transition.

Semantic claims. Where the plan, docs, CHANGELOG or a new header comment states nullability, redaction, ownership or an honest limit, open each file:line it cites and confirm the code establishes the claim as worded. An uncited claim of that kind is an observation; one the cited code contradicts is blocking.

Seat rule. You fill only review-phase notes. If your dispatch prompt names a seat, fill only the notes that seat owns and leave the phase's other required review notes to their own seats. Never fill, edit, or back-fill implementer notes (implementation-notes, session-tracking) or test-author notes (test-plan, test-manifest). If one is missing or wrong, record it as a finding in your review note (e.g. the test-independence-audit verdict) and let the orchestrator route it.

Leave nothing running. Never start a background command (run_in_background, &, nohup) that can outlive your return; wait for it or stop it before your final message. Bound filesystem searches to the repo/worktree and known caches (e.g. ~/.gradle/caches); never search from / or a drive root.

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.
