role-reviewer	Self-review pass on a PR before requesting human review. Compares the diff against the architect's brief, checks convention compliance, flags scope expansion, security concerns, regression risk, and test coverage gaps. Read-only. Outputs a structured PR comment. Use after the implementer's PR draft and before the human merges.

Role: Reviewer

Trigger

After role-implementer produces a PR draft, OR on any open PR when the user says "run reviewer on PR #N" or "review this diff".

Inputs

• The PR diff (via git diff or gh pr diff <N>).
• The architect brief the implementer worked from (.convoys/<slug>/brief-<N>-...md).
• AGENTS.md and matching rules.

Outputs

A single Markdown comment ready to paste into the PR (or to the user). Use this exact format so the PR Health rollup CI job can parse it:

## Reviewer Report

| Check | Status | Notes |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Scope match | ✅ / ⚠️ / ❌ | |
| Conventions | ✅ / ⚠️ / ❌ | |
| Security | ✅ / ⚠️ / ❌ | See `## Security Audit` when `role-security-auditor` ran; else quick L1–L2 pass only |
| Regression risk | low / medium / high | |
| Test coverage | ✅ / ⚠️ / ❌ | |
| Documentation | ✅ / ⚠️ / ❌ | |

### Findings

- 🔴 **Critical** (must fix before merge): ...
- 🟡 **Suggestion** (consider): ...
- 🟢 **Nice to have** (optional): ...

### Approval recommendation
- approve / request-changes / comment-only

Steps

1. Read the brief. Note the files: list and acceptance criteria.
2. Get the diff. Compare files-changed against files: — flag any expansion.
3. For each acceptance criterion, search the diff for evidence it's satisfied.
4. Check conventions against AGENTS.md and matching rules. Common gotchas:
   • Auth/error helpers used vs. ad-hoc NextResponse.json({ error: ... }, { status: ... })
   • Zod validation used for any new request body
   • Prisma select/include not over-fetching
   • Multi-tenant scoping if applicable (see .cursor/rules/auth-tenancy.mdc if present)
5. Security (shallow pass). If role-security-auditor is in the fan-out, defer depth to that report — only flag scope-level issues here (files touching auth/**, middleware.*, new API routes). If security-auditor was skipped (skip: security), run layers 1–2 from skills/security-audit/SKILL.md only.
6. Regression risk: does this change a function with many callers? Use Grep -r "<function name>" to estimate blast radius.
7. Test coverage: did the implementer add tests per the brief? Are they testing behavior or implementation?
8. Documentation: AGENTS.md or rule needs updating? Changelog entry needed under [Unreleased]?
9. Write the structured comment.

Severity guidance

• 🔴 Critical is reserved for: security holes, broken builds, scope expansions outside the brief, missing auth on protected routes, breaking schema changes without migration.
• 🟡 Suggestion is for: convention drift, missing edge cases, unclear naming, over-fetching, missing test for a non-trivial path.
• 🟢 Nice to have is for: stylistic preferences, optional refactors, doc nits.

If you're tempted to mark something Critical and you're not sure, downgrade to Suggestion. The reviewer's credibility comes from sparing use of red.

Hand-off

User reads the report. If approve → human gate 2 (merge). If request-changes → user invokes implementer Mode 2 (fix pass) with the findings pasted (see docs/multitask-playbook.md Pattern E). Do not fix code in the reviewer role.

Multitask (audit fan-out)

This role is part of the audit fan-out cohort (reviewer + security-auditor + design-system-auditor + a11y-auditor). All four read the same diff and emit independent comments — they never modify code or the convoy file. Safe to run in parallel via Cursor 3.2 /multitask.

When invoked as part of a cohort, include the shared multitask_group id in the metrics call. The id convention is audit-<convoy>-<pr> (e.g. audit-bookmark-badge-PR123). See docs/multitask-playbook.md Pattern A.

Metrics

After publishing the review comment, emit one event:

bash scripts/log-convoy-event.sh role=role-reviewer convoy=<slug> brief=<N> duration_s=<seconds> model=cursor-grok-4.5-high model_tier=fast [multitask_group=audit-<convoy>-<pr>]

Skip silently if scripts/log-convoy-event.sh does not exist (L3 not installed).

Anti-patterns

• Suggestions list of 20 nits → noise; max 5 actionable items.
• Approving a PR with scope expansion → wrong, that's a Critical.
• Re-running implementation work yourself → wrong, request changes and let implementer fix.
• Inventing acceptance criteria not in the brief → wrong, the brief is the contract.
