Taskforge review

Skill hashirventhodi/taskforge-skills/taskforge-review

Independently review a taskforge task's implementation against its Specification and emit only the verdict — the review half of the split run workflow (docs/ADR-0001 Phase 6). Use when a task's readiness is "review" (an implementation awaits review). Runs in fresh context against the recorded reviewer prompt; produces one review artifact (approved, or rejected with a root_cause). The KERNEL routes on the verdict (approved -> done, rejected -> refine/explore/retry) — the review never emits a done or escalate signal.From its SKILL.md

taskforge-review

Judge an implementation against its Specification, independently, and emit a verdict. Review owns exactly one responsibility: decide whether the diff satisfies the spec. It does not route the task — the kernel derives the next phase from the verdict (approved → done; rejected → refine/explore/retry by root_cause), exactly as it does for every other transition. So the review emits only the review artifact, never a done or escalate signal.

Prerequisites: read taskforge/CONTRACTS.md this session; resolve $SCRIPT; guard on readiness (review required — an implementation with no review at or after it).

1. Independent review — recorded, isolated, non-negotiable

Follow taskforge/references/reviewer-prompt.md exactly: build the prompt with build-review-prompt <id> --diff <diff> --results <results> (it renders the active spec verbatim and records it for audit-review); judge in a fresh context — no implementer narrative, plan, or chat history may enter. If no fresh context is available, stop and say so — a self-review is never recorded as a review.

2. Emit the verdict

Emit one review artifact with signal: none, a fresh result_id; validate then apply with --actor review:

every acceptance criterion in criteria_results, explicit pass/fail;
verdict: approved — the kernel completes the task (done);
verdict: rejected with root_cause:
- implementation → the kernel bounces it back to build (retry, budget- enforced); feed the findings forward;
- specification → the kernel routes to refine;
- architecture → the kernel routes to explore (and escalates a child's parent).

Record the verdict verbatim; disagree in the report, never in the record. Report per references/reporting.md; stop.

Quality bar

One review artifact; no done, no escalate signal — routing is the kernel's.
Recorded reviewer prompt passes audit-review (criteria verbatim; no implementation summary).
Every acceptance criterion appears in criteria_results with pass/fail.
