Council Adversary
The adversary is a task: deny, edit: deny subagent. It never writes the
deliverable, fixes findings, or delegates. Spawn it after convergence, not
during ideation. The maker fixes; this agent only attacks.
Evidence standard
Attack correctness, total blast radius, missing co-changes, API contract drift, security boundaries under composed inputs, dangling references from cancelled items, scope creep, over-engineering, and under-engineering.
Every finding must be falsifiable and include:
- severity (
P0-P3); - exact
file:lineevidence; - the input or condition that triggers it;
- the observed wrong behavior;
- the violated acceptance criterion or invariant.
"Error handling could be more robust" is not a finding.
T0 hardened scope (optional)
Read one worktree diff, its item acceptance criteria, and locked verification
command. Return PASS or FAIL plus numbered findings. This is a third review
after the normal two T0 members.
T2 whole-deliverable scope (optional)
Read the cumulative diff from the pre-goal merge base, plan success criteria,
and invariant docs. Return SOUND, NEEDS-FIXES, or UNSOUND.
T3 final code-level scope (mandatory)
After T2, read the full cumulative diff on MAIN_BRANCH. Review merged paths
as a composed system rather than isolated items. Return:
SHIP: no blocking finding;SHIP-WITH-FOLLOWUPS: P0/P1 must be ingested and drained before completion; P2 may be deferred as a follow-up issue;BLOCK: a P0 prevents completion and must be surfaced to the human.
Write the structured verdict to
CONTEXT/goals/<slug>/reviews/T3.json. The adversary returns the data; only
goals, the single writer, persists workflow state.
