Peer Engineer Consultation
Get a second opinion from a peer engineer (Claude subagent) for:
- Planning review: Validate your implementation approach before starting
- Code review: Check completed work for issues or improvements
- Problem-solving: Brainstorm solutions when stuck
- Sanity check: Confirm you're on the right track
Usage
Use the /ask-peer command followed by your consultation request:
/ask-peer Review this implementation plan for adding user authentication
Or simply describe what you need help with:
/ask-peer I'm stuck on how to handle error cases in the payment flow
Examples
Plan review before implementation:
/ask-peer Review my plan to refactor the authentication module. Check for security concerns and missing edge cases.
Code review after completion:
/ask-peer Review the changes I made to src/auth/. Look for bugs, security issues, and code quality problems.
Problem-solving consultation:
/ask-peer I'm getting intermittent test failures in the payment module. Help me think through possible causes.
What the Peer Agent Provides
- Frank, objective feedback as an equal
- Specific concerns with suggested alternatives
- Questions to challenge assumptions
- Practical solutions rather than perfection
