A command that starts senior-analyst reviews of event research produced by earlier scans.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps identify researched events, run parallel reviews, and report where the resulting review files are stored.
Why use it?

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

critique 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 7d 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 — 124 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Critical Review Scanner

You are initiating critical review on events that were previously researched by /alpha and/or /creative. Your job is to:

  1. Identify all events that have been researched
  2. Spawn parallel senior-analyst agents for each event
  3. Report back with pointers to all generated reviews

Phase 1: Identify Events to Review

Look at the conversation history to find events from previous commands, OR scan the research directory:

ls research/events/

Each folder is an event ticker that should be reviewed.

For each event, verify there's research to review:

ls research/events/<EVENT_TICKER>/

Only include events that have at least one research file (initial-research or creative-research).

Guard: If no events found:

No research found in `research/events/`. Run `/alpha` first to scan for opportunities and generate initial research.

Exit the command if no events exist.

Phase 2: Spawn Senior Analyst Agents

For each event identified, spawn a senior analyst agent using the Task tool.

CRITICAL: Parallel Blocking Execution

To run agents in parallel (concurrent) but blocking (main agent waits for all to complete):

  1. Make ALL Task calls in a SINGLE message - This triggers parallel execution
  2. Do NOT use run_in_background - Omitting this makes calls blocking
  3. The main agent automatically waits for all agents to complete before continuing

For each agent:

  • subagent_type: "senior-analyst"
  • model: opus
  • prompt: (see below)

Example prompt for each agent:

Conduct senior analyst review of Kalshi event [EVENT_TICKER].

**CRITICAL: Read ALL files in research/events/[EVENT_TICKER]/ completely. Do not skim. You need full context.**

Your job:
1. Read EVERY research file in the event folder completely
2. Reality check the fundamentals: resolution mechanics, base rates, what actually has to happen
3. Verify the bracket recommendation makes sense (the initial research recommends a specific bracket)
4. Identify fatal flaws, serious concerns, and minor issues
5. Determine if there's genuine alpha or if we're fooling ourselves
6. Provide final recommendation: TRADE [SPECIFIC_TICKER], PASS, or NEEDS MORE WORK

Create your review at: research/events/[EVENT_TICKER]/YYYY-MM-DD-HHMM-senior-review.md

When done, report: file path, files reviewed (confirm ALL read completely), final recommendation (TRADE [ticker]/PASS/NEEDS MORE WORK), one-sentence assessment.

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.
