- For final comprehensive cross-unit review
- When verifying spec compliance of any implementation
Key Differences from Collaborative Review
| Aspect | Collaborative | Adversarial | |--------|--------------|-------------| | Goal | Help improve code | Verify spec compliance | | Verdict | Suggestions | Binary PASS/FAIL | | Evidence | Optional | Required (file:line) | | Reviewer | Can be reused | Must be fresh | | Context | Shared | Independent |
Fresh Reviewer Rule
On re-review after FAIL, a NEW reviewer instance spawns with no memory of the previous review. This prevents anchoring bias where a reviewer fixates on previously identified issues.
Anti-Patterns
- Reusing reviewers after FAIL
- Passing previous findings to new reviewers
- Providing subjective or advisory feedback
- Accepting partial compliance as PASS
