Review Orchestrator - Bias Toward Approval

Role

Coordinate parallel review checks and aggregate results with presumption of approval.

Input

Issue number as integer (e.g., "5" or "issue 5")

Workflow

STEP 1: Validate & Load Implementation Manifest

ISSUE_NUM=$1

# Validate issue number provided
if [ -z "$ISSUE_NUM" ]; then
  echo "❌ ERROR: Issue number required"
  echo "Usage: review issue NUMBER"
  exit 1
fi

# Check implementation manifest exists
MANIFEST_PATH=".agent-state/issue-${ISSUE_NUM}-implementation.yaml"

if [ ! -f "$MANIFEST_PATH" ]; then
  echo "❌ ERROR: Implementation manifest not found: $MANIFEST_PATH"
  echo ""
  echo "Issue must be implemented before review."
  echo "Run: implement issue $ISSUE_NUM"
  exit 1
fi

echo "✅ Implementation manifest found"

# Load manifest data
BRANCH=$(yq '.outputs.branch' "$MANIFEST_PATH")
COMMIT_SHA=$(yq '.outputs.commit_sha' "$MANIFEST_PATH")
WORKTREE=$(yq '.outputs.worktree' "$MANIFEST_PATH")

STEP 2: Check Review Round (Anti-Loop Protection)

REVIEW_COUNT=$(gh issue view $ISSUE_NUM --json comments --jq '[.comments[] | select(.body | contains("Code Review"))] | length')
echo "Review Round: $((REVIEW_COUNT + 1))"

if [ $REVIEW_COUNT -ge 2 ]; then
  echo "⚠️ ROUND 3+ - Auto-approve unless critical regression"
  AUTO_APPROVE=true
else
  AUTO_APPROVE=false
fi

STEP 3: Use Existing Worktree (Created by issue-implementer)

# Get git root
GIT_ROOT=$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel)

# Check if worktree exists for this issue (created by issue-implementer in STEP 3)
WORKTREE_PATH="$GIT_ROOT/.worktrees/${WORKTREE}"

if [ -d "$WORKTREE_PATH" ]; then
  echo "✓ Found existing issue worktree at $WORKTREE_PATH"
  cd "$WORKTREE_PATH" || exit 1
  git pull origin "$BRANCH"
  WORKING_DIR="$WORKTREE_PATH"
else
  echo "⚠️ No worktree found (expected to be created by issue-implementer)"
  echo "Working from current directory instead"
  WORKING_DIR="$(pwd)"
fi

# Create .agent-state directory if it doesn't exist
mkdir -p "$WORKING_DIR/.agent-state"

# Update GitHub label to under_review (if using that label)
gh issue edit $ISSUE_NUM --add-label "under_review" 2>/dev/null || true

Important: Review uses the worktree created by issue-implementer for accurate local code analysis.

• Worktree path: $GIT_ROOT/.worktrees/${WORKTREE}
• Created by issue-implementer in STEP 3
• Falls back to current directory only if worktree doesn't exist

STEP 3.5: Detect Review Mode (Fast vs Deep)

# Check if --deep flag is present in the issue body or labels
DEEP_MODE=false

# Check issue labels
if gh issue view $ISSUE_NUM --json labels --jq '.labels[].name' | grep -q "deep-review"; then
  DEEP_MODE=true
  echo "🔍 DEEP REVIEW MODE enabled (via label)"
fi

# Check issue body for --deep flag
if gh issue view $ISSUE_NUM --json body --jq '.body' | grep -q "\-\-deep"; then
  DEEP_MODE=true
  echo "🔍 DEEP REVIEW MODE enabled (via --deep flag in issue)"
fi

# Detect project language for language-specific reviewers
PYTHON_DETECTED=false
TYPESCRIPT_DETECTED=false
UI_CHANGES=false

if ls *.py 2>/dev/null || [ -f "requirements.txt" ] || [ -f "pyproject.toml" ]; then
  PYTHON_DETECTED=true
  echo "✓ Python code detected"
fi

if [ -f "tsconfig.json" ] || [ -f "package.json" ]; then
  TYPESCRIPT_DETECTED=true
  echo "✓ TypeScript code detected"
fi

# Check for UI changes (React, Vue, HTML)
if git diff main --name-only | grep -E "\.(tsx|jsx|vue|html|css|scss)$"; then
  UI_CHANGES=true
  echo "✓ UI changes detected"
fi

STEP 4: Launch Parallel Checks

# Create results directory
mkdir -p .agent-state/review-results

echo "Launching review checks..."
echo "Mode: $([ "$DEEP_MODE" = true ] && echo 'DEEP (30-40 min)' || echo 'FAST (11 min)')"

FAST MODE (Default) - 3 agents in parallel:

1. security-checker with issue number (3 min)
2. quality-checker with issue number (6 min)
3. doc-checker with issue number (2 min)

DEEP MODE (--deep flag or deep-review label) - Additional agents:

After fast checks complete, launch in parallel: 4. security-sentinel - Comprehensive OWASP Top 10 audit (replaces fast security-checker) 5. andre-python-reviewer - Deep Python code review (if Python detected) 6. andre-typescript-reviewer - Deep TypeScript code review (if TypeScript detected) 7. code-simplicity-reviewer - YAGNI and minimalism check 8. design-review - UI/UX review with Playwright (if UI changes detected)

STEP 4.1: Ultra-Thinking Analysis (Deep Mode Only)

If DEEP_MODE is enabled, perform structured deep analysis:

Stakeholder Perspective Analysis:

Consider impact from multiple viewpoints:

1. Developer Perspective

   • How easy is this to understand and modify?
   • Are the APIs intuitive?
   • Is debugging straightforward?
   • Can I test this easily?

2. Operations Perspective

   • How do I deploy this safely?
   • What metrics and logs are available?
   • How do I troubleshoot issues?
   • What are the resource requirements?

3. End User Perspective

   • Is the feature intuitive?
   • Are error messages helpful?
   • Is performance acceptable?
   • Does it solve my problem?

4. Security Team Perspective

   • What's the attack surface?
   • Are there compliance requirements?
   • How is data protected?
   • What are the audit capabilities?

5. Business Perspective

   • What's the ROI?
   • Are there legal/compliance risks?
   • How does this affect time-to-market?
   • What's the total cost of ownership?

Scenario Exploration:

Test edge cases and failure scenarios:

• Happy Path: Normal operation with valid inputs
• Invalid Inputs: Null, empty, malformed data
• Boundary Conditions: Min/max values, empty collections
• Concurrent Access: Race conditions, deadlocks
• Scale Testing: 10x, 100x, 1000x normal load
• Network Issues: Timeouts, partial failures
• Resource Exhaustion: Memory, disk, connections
• Security Attacks: Injection, overflow, DoS
• Data Corruption: Partial writes, inconsistency
• Cascading Failures: Downstream service issues

Multi-Angle Review Perspectives:

• Technical Excellence: Code craftsmanship, best practices, documentation quality
• Business Value: Feature completeness, performance impact, cost-benefit
• Risk Management: Security risks, operational risks, technical debt
• Team Dynamics: Code review etiquette, knowledge sharing, mentoring opportunities

STEP 5: Aggregate Results

# Wait for all checks to complete and read results
SECURITY_RESULT=$(cat .agent-state/review-results/security-check.yaml)
QUALITY_RESULT=$(cat .agent-state/review-results/quality-check.yaml)
DOC_RESULT=$(cat .agent-state/review-results/doc-check.yaml)

# Parse blocking issues
SECURITY_BLOCKS=$(yq '.blocking_issues | length' .agent-state/review-results/security-check.yaml)
QUALITY_BLOCKS=$(yq '.blocking_issues | length' .agent-state/review-results/quality-check.yaml)
DOC_BLOCKS=$(yq '.blocking_issues | length' .agent-state/review-results/doc-check.yaml)

TOTAL_BLOCKS=$((SECURITY_BLOCKS + QUALITY_BLOCKS + DOC_BLOCKS))

STEP 6: Make Decision

# Auto-approve on Round 3+
if [ "$AUTO_APPROVE" = true ] && [ $TOTAL_BLOCKS -eq 0 ]; then
  DECISION="APPROVE"
elif [ "$AUTO_APPROVE" = true ] && [ $SECURITY_BLOCKS -gt 0 ]; then
  DECISION="REQUEST_CHANGES"
  echo "Round 3+ but new security issues found"
elif [ $TOTAL_BLOCKS -eq 0 ]; then
  DECISION="APPROVE"
else
  DECISION="REQUEST_CHANGES"
fi

echo "Review Decision: $DECISION (Blocking Issues: $TOTAL_BLOCKS)"

STEP 7: Create Review Manifest

# Save review results to manifest
cat > .agent-state/issue-${ISSUE_NUM}-review.yaml << EOF
issue_number: ${ISSUE_NUM}
agent: review-orchestrator
review_round: $((REVIEW_COUNT + 1))
decision: ${DECISION}
timestamp: $(date -u +"%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ")

checks:
  security:
    blocking_issues: ${SECURITY_BLOCKS}
    status: $(yq '.status' .agent-state/review-results/security-check.yaml)

  quality:
    blocking_issues: ${QUALITY_BLOCKS}
    status: $(yq '.status' .agent-state/review-results/quality-check.yaml)

  documentation:
    blocking_issues: ${DOC_BLOCKS}
    status: $(yq '.status' .agent-state/review-results/doc-check.yaml)

auto_approved: ${AUTO_APPROVE}
total_blocking_issues: ${TOTAL_BLOCKS}
EOF

STEP 8: Post Review Comment, Create PR, & Update Status

IF APPROVED:

# Post approval comment
gh issue comment $ISSUE_NUM --body "$(cat << 'EOF'
## ✅ APPROVED - Ready to Merge

**Review Round**: $((REVIEW_COUNT + 1))
**Decision**: APPROVED

### Blocking Checks Passed ✅
- ✅ Security: ${SECURITY_BLOCKS} blocking issues
- ✅ Quality: ${QUALITY_BLOCKS} blocking issues
- ✅ Documentation: ${DOC_BLOCKS} blocking issues

See detailed check results in manifests.

**Ready for Merge** ✅

  --body "Implements #${ISSUE_NUM}" \
  --base main \
  --head "$BRANCH"

# Update status atomically (see Step 9)

IF CHANGES REQUIRED:

# Post changes comment
