Runs one read-only reviewer subagent per configured model against a diff to challenge a change, then synthesizes a single verdict without applying any fixes.

  • Works in 5 steps: , Determine Scope → , State the Intent → , Spawn Reviewers → …
  • Getting an adversarial second opinion on a branch before merging
  • SKILL.md covers Step 1, Determine Scope, Step 2, State the Intent, Step 3, Spawn Reviewers and Step 4, Synthesize, plus 2 more sections
  • Calls git

What it does

This skill sends the same code change to several differently built language models and asks each to attack it. Reviewers get an identical prompt and rubric, so the pushback comes from model diversity rather than assigned personas. The agent first works out scope from the files or diff you point to, from a full branch diff against the base branch, or from recent work, then writes one paragraph stating the intent of the change from your message, commit messages, any PR description and the code, asking you if it is unsure.

All reviewers launch together as read-only subagents, with the lineup read from an `interrogate reviewers` entry in a `pstack-models.mdc` rules file and two default reviewers used if it is missing. Fallbacks cover rejected model names without blocking the review. Each prompt is filled from `references/reviewer-prompt.md` with the intent, the diff and the rubric in `references/rubric.md`. The result is a synthesized verdict, and changes are never applied automatically. Further reference files cover code-quality review and the lead's judgment.

When your agent uses it

  • Getting an adversarial second opinion on a branch before merging
  • Stress testing a risky change from several independent angles
  • Looking for blind spots in code written with a single model

Example prompts

  • “Interrogate this branch against main and tell me where the reviewers disagree.”
  • “Stress test the new caching layer and find the blind spots I missed.”
  • “Tear apart the diff in src/billing before I open the PR.”

Requirements

  • Access to more than one model through the host's subagent tool
  • Git, for diffing against the base branch

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9f451cf. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • git

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use git, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Multi-Model Adversarial Review loads about 1.3k tokens when it runs, and up to ~5.3k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 57 tokens; SKILL.md has 674 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~57
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.3k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~5.3k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 674 words (~1,250 tokens).

“Spawn one reviewer per configured model to adversarially review code changes. Each model gets the same prompt and rubric. The adversarial signal comes from model diversity, not assigned personas.”
