interrogate

interrogate is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from minghinmatthewlam/agent-guards. It costs 51 tokens per session (963 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A code-review workflow that asks multiple language models to review a change independently and combines their findings into one verdict.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review a diff, a set of files, or recent work before deciding whether the change is sound.
Why use it?
Different reviewers can expose blind spots that one review may miss, without automatically changing the code.

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

interrogate 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 2d 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 — 75 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Interrogate

Spawn one reviewer per configured model to adversarially review code changes. The adversarial signal comes from model diversity, not assigned personas. The deliverable is a synthesized verdict. Do NOT auto-apply changes.

Step 1, Scope

Identify what to review from context:

  • If the user points at specific files or a diff, use that.
  • If on a feature branch, run git diff main...HEAD (or the appropriate base branch) for the full changeset.
  • If the user's message references recent work, gather the relevant files.

Package the diff or file contents with any surrounding context files the reviewers need to understand the code.

Step 2, Intent

Before spawning reviewers, state the intent in one clear paragraph from the user's message, commit messages, the PR description if one exists, and the code. If you're unsure about the intent, ask the user before proceeding.

Step 3, Spawn Reviewers

Launch all reviewers in a single message with the Task tool, one per entry on the interrogate reviewers line in ~/.config/pstack/models.md, labeled Reviewer A, B, and so on to match the entry count. If the rule or that line is missing, use the table defaults.

Subagent Default model
Reviewer A claude-opus-5-5-xhigh
Reviewer B grok-4.7-xhigh-fast

Each reviewer gets subagent_type: generalPurpose, readonly: true, and model set to its configured entry, or its table default when there is no configured line. Omit model for an auto or inherit-parent entry, so that reviewer runs on the parent model.

If the Task tool rejects a configured entry, run that reviewer on its family's table default and say so. Families go by prefix: claude-* and grok-*. With no family match, use Reviewer A's default. If it rejects a table default, spawn with the closest equivalent from the valid slugs in its error message (prefer the same family and reasoning tier), and open a separate PR to update the default table. Do not block the review on the slug issue. Never treat an alias entry as a rejected slug or apply either fallback to it.

What ships with it

5 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.
