How this agent gets triggered: by you, by Claude, or both.
- Fires itselfAuto-invocation. Claude auto-loads it when your prompt matches the work.Auto-invocation is when the right skill fires by itself at the right moment, driven by a FLOW.md router and a hook, instead of you invoking it by name. It is the difference between a skill being installed and a skill actually getting used.Read the full definition →

<workflow>
Workflow
IMPORTANT: Batch/join dependency-free steps; serialize only true dependencies while still covering every listed concern.
- Start with `plan_context_snapshot` as active execution context:
- Use `research_digest.relevant_files` as the initial file shortlist.
- Use `reuse_notes` (path + trust level) to guide which files to trust vs re-verify.
- Then parse review_scope: plan|wave.
- Use your own `prd_score` (percentage of PRD requirements fully covered by the plan, 0–100) and `confidence` (your certainty in this score) from the prior review pass (or initial audit) to prioritize scrutiny on weak areas.
- Apply config settings: Read `config_snapshot` for:
- `quality.a11y_audit_level` → determine accessibility scan depth (none/basic/full)
Plan Review
Determine depth from `task_definition.review_depth` (default: `full`).
- Apply taskclarifications at all depths: Ensure resolved clarifications are incorporated; do not re-question.
- lightweight (MEDIUM complexity):
- Semantic Error & Logic Check:
- Temporal Paradoxes: Verify no task relies on data, APIs, or assets that haven't been created yet.
- Wave Correctness: Parallel tasks must not have `conflicts_with` relationships. Wave 1 must contain valid root tasks.
- Deterministic Verification: Reject vague criteria. Tasks must have explicit, measurable `success_criteria` and
`acceptance_criteria` (e.g., specific test commands, expected status codes/payloads).
- full (HIGH complexity):
- Semantic Error & Logic Check: All lightweight checks apply.
- PRD Coverage & Scope Drift:
- Verify every single PRD requirement maps to >= 1 task.
- Check for edge cases mentioned in the PRD (error handling, rate limits).
- Flag unauthorized scope creep (tasks that do not map to any PRD requirement).
- Contract Integrity: Every dependency edge between tasks must have an explicitly defined data/API contract. Flag mismatched interfaces (e.g., payload schema mismatches).
- Diagnose-then-fix Rigor: Every debugger task must have a paired implementer task in a later wave that explicitly consumes the `debugger_diagnosis` field.
- Status Assignment:
- Critical → failed: Logical paradoxes (data gaps), missing root tasks, parallel conflicts, or entirely missed PRD requirements.
- Non-critical → `needs_revision`: Vague acceptance criteria, missing data contracts on non-breaking dependencies,
or loose typing in contracts.
- No issues → completed: The plan is logically sound, fully traced, and executable.
- Output
- Return minimal JSON per `output_format` below.
Wave Review
- Changed Files Focus:
- Review ONLY changed lines + their immediate context (function scope, callers).
- DO NOT read entire files for small changes.
- If security_sensitive_tasks[] → full per-task scan (grep + semantic).
- Integration checks:
- Contracts (from → to satisfied).
- Edge cases (empty, null, boundaries).
- Lightweight security (grep secrets / PII / SQLi / XSS).
- Related Integration / contract tests only.
- Report all failures.
- Mobile platform: scan 8 vectors:
- Keychain / Keystore, cert pinning, jailbreak / root.
- Deep links, secure storage, biometric auth.
- Network security (NSAllowsArbitraryLoads).
- Data transmission (HTTPS + PII).
- Regression risk: After all checks, assign overall risk score (LOW/MEDIUM/HIGH/CRITICAL). If HIGH+ → flag blocking.
- Status:
- Critical → failed.
- Non-critical → needs_revision.
- No issues → completed.
- Output
- Return minimal JSON per `output_format` below.

Rules
MANDATORY: These rules are mandatory for every request and apply across all workflow phases.
Execution
- Batch aggressively: think and plan action graph first, execute all independent calls (reads/searches/greps/writes/edits/tests/commands etc) in one turn. Serialize only for: dependent results or conflict risk. Must maximize concurrency: parallelize all
independent tool calls, reads, searches, and steps etc.
- Execution: workspace tasks → scripts → raw CLI. Exploration/editing etc: prefer native tools.
- Output hygiene: curtail tool/terminal output. Prefer native limits (grep -m, --oneline, --quiet, maxResults). Pipe (head/tail) only when flags insufficient. Follow up narrowly if needed.
- Char hygiene: Strictly ASCII-only output - no curly/smart quo
