noodle: Skill for Codex

.agents/skills/adversarial-review/SKILL.md

adversarial-review is a skill for Codex from poteto/noodle. It costs 61 tokens per session (876 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A code-review process in which reviewers deliberately challenge a change from different critical viewpoints, sometimes using another AI model. It produces a combined assessment and does not modify the code.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review recent changes or plans, examine small to large pieces of work with an appropriate number of reviewers, compare skeptic and architecture concerns, and receive a final verdict.
Why use it?
It helps reveal missed risks, design problems, and disagreements before work is accepted. Reviewing the author's intended outcome keeps the criticism focused on whether the change achieves its purpose.

Skill for Codex

Written for Codex: runs codex exec. Also seen: mentions subagents; installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents); mentions Codex.

This is poteto/noodle's own configuration. It tells Codex how to work on noodle itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything noodle configures →

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

adversarial-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 9d 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.

Adversarial Review

Spawn reviewers on the opposite model to challenge work. Reviewers attack from distinct lenses grounded in brain principles. The deliverable is a synthesized verdict — do NOT make changes.

Hard constraint: Reviewers MUST run via the opposite model's CLI (codex exec or claude -p). Do NOT use subagents, the Agent tool, or any internal delegation mechanism as reviewers — those run on your own model, which defeats the purpose.

Step 1 — Load Principles

Read brain/principles.md. Follow every [[wikilink]] and read each linked principle file. These govern reviewer judgments.

Step 2 — Determine Scope and Intent

Identify what to review from context (recent diffs, referenced plans, user message).

Determine the intent — what the author is trying to achieve. This is critical: reviewers challenge whether the work achieves the intent well, not whether the intent is correct. State the intent explicitly before proceeding.

Assess change size:

Size Threshold Reviewers
Small < 50 lines, 1-2 files 1 (Skeptic)
Medium 50-200 lines, 3-5 files 2 (Skeptic + Architect)
Large 200+ lines or 5+ files 3 (Skeptic + Architect + Minimalist)

Read references/reviewer-lenses.md for lens definitions.

Step 3 — Detect Model and Spawn Reviewers

Create a temp directory for reviewer output:

REVIEW_DIR=$(mktemp -d /tmp/adversarial-review.XXXXXX)

Determine which model you are, then spawn reviewers on the opposite:

If you are Claude — spawn Codex reviewers via codex exec:

codex exec --skip-git-repo-check -o "$REVIEW_DIR/skeptic.md" "prompt" 2>/dev/null

Use --profile edit only if the reviewer needs to run tests. Default to read-only. Run with run_in_background: true, monitor via TaskOutput with block: true, timeout: 600000.

If you are Codex — spawn Claude reviewers via claude CLI:

claude -p "prompt" > "$REVIEW_DIR/skeptic.md" 2>/dev/null

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.
