What problem does it solve?
Distributed coordination-protocol defects survive ordinary code review because every component looks correct in isolation — the bugs live in compositions like races across authority transitions, timescale coincidences, and rarely-taken exit paths that skip fencing. This Skill encodes the review process that actually catches them before personhog protocol changes ship.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Adversarial two-pass review: Runs an author pass against eight lens dimensions (authority transitions, observation latency, timescale interactions, budget semantics, lifecycle, primitive semantics, failure-path parity, escalation legibility), then spawns a cold-context agent for an independent adversarial pass with ranked CONFIRMED/PLAUSIBLE findings.
- Layered verification gates: Checks each change against stateright model-checking, real-etcd protocol integration tests, e2e harness gate scenarios, mixed-fleet compatibility, and observability/residual-ledger updates.
- Fix discipline: Enforces red-check-every-fix validation, one regression test per fix, and invariant comments on counter/budget/threshold changes.
- Use Case: Before pushing a change to personhog lease fencing or handoff logic, run this review to catch a drain bound that exceeds the keepalive renewal margin — a defect that only appears when the constants table is checked pairwise.
Quick Start
Review my personhog coordination-protocol diff for authority-transition races, timescale interactions, and missing regression tests before I request review.
