genie-orca-review

genie-orca-review is a skill for Codex from automagik-dev/genie. It costs 50 tokens per session (741 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A read-only review skill that checks a work group, plan, or pull request and returns SHIP, FIX-FIRST, or BLOCKED with severity-tagged findings. A pull request is a proposed set of code changes for review.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for reviewing diffs, rerunning validation, and reporting findings with file locations and suggested fixes.
Why use it?
It creates an independent quality gate and identifies concrete problems before work is accepted.

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

genie-orca-review 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 — 37 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

genie-orca:review

Runtime syntax: invoke the plugin copy through the active runtime's owner-qualified skill selector; use a bare selector only when intentionally selecting a user-tier copy (a separately installed personal copy; Genie no longer seeds this tier). Cross-skill prose below uses bare names as portable semantic routes; the orchestrator resolves the selector for the active runtime.

A reviewer is a read-only worker dispatched by the coordinator, never the engineer of the same group, preferably a different model family (brain default: Codex reviews Claude-Sonnet work; Fable/Opus for the two gate reviews).

Contract

  • Input: the group spec (WISH.md section), ground truth (SCOUT.md), git diff <wish-branch>..HEAD, the validation command.
  • The reviewer re-runs validation and quotes the summary line. A review that did not run the gate is not a review.
  • Body starts with VERDICT: SHIP | FIX-FIRST | BLOCKED, then numbered findings [critical|major|minor] with file:line and a concrete fix. FIX-FIRST only on critical/major.
  • One worker_done, --outcome succeeded = review delivered (the verdict is in the body). The reviewer's worker_done never authorizes coordinator edits; fixes are re-dispatched.
  • Name the environments in the adversarial question: the dev box with the product installed, the compiled binary from cwd / with no env, a DSN/detached service, the vault literally named like the product. On brain, the same precedence bug survived four gates because each ran in one environment.
  • Ask the adversarial question explicitly in the brief ("how does this still fail in the compiled binary / under DSN / on a box with brain installed?"). On brain, 3 of 5 groups went FIX-FIRST from exactly that prompt.

Tiers

When Reviewers Merge rule
per group 1 capable model (≠ engineer) verdict as-is
wish-approval, PR 3 in parallel (claude / codex / third), same read-only worktree severity-max; any BLOCKED → BLOCKED; SHIP only if all SHIP; one merged Linear comment
council lenses (questioner / architecture / simplifier / perf …) on a decision synthesis + unresolved tensions, persisted next to the wish
retro the run's RETRO.md from skills/genie-orca-work/scripts/retro-collect.ts findings → skill edits, not prose

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.
