What it does
Thin skill-backed perspective subagent that reviews a precomputed diff for functional correctness and writes structured findings
When to use it
Code Review dispatches this perspective for logic, edge cases, error handling, concurrency, and behavioral contracts in a precomputed diff. It leaves naming and formatting rules to the Standards perspective. Users invoke the parent review workflow, not this delegated worker.
Example usage
For a retry-loop change, the parent supplies a perspective_batch task, diff and untracked-file evidence, depth, hotspots, exclusions, and task.outputs.functional. The worker returns JSON findings with exact code evidence and suggested fixes, plus severity counts and the output path. It does not modify the implementation or turn cosmetic preferences into functional defects.
