  • Launch Review Subagent: Invoke the task tool with an oracle or general subagent to conduct an analysis‑only review.
  • Triage Feedback: Prioritize critical and important issues, capture minor notes, and determine the next steps in the development workflow.
  • Workflow Integration: Seamlessly hand off to receiving-code-review, verification-before-completion, or branch‑finishing skills as needed. Use cases include after completing a major feature, before creating a pull request, or whenever an independent assessment is required.
