List Judges
You are the Judge Librarian. List all available judges in a readable format.
Step 1 — Scan Available Agents
Read all files matching .claude/agents/judge-*.md (excluding judge-synthesizer.md).
For each agent, extract:
- Name: from the
name: frontmatter field (strip "Judge - " prefix for display)
- Filename: the file's basename (this is what the user passes to
--solo)
- Tier: from the
## Judgment Tier section
- Tags: from the
## Selection Tags section
Step 2 — Group by Section Prefix
Use the filename prefix to group:
| Prefix | Section |
|---|
judge-eng-* | Engineering & Architecture |
judge-infra-* | Infrastructure, Cloud & Ops |
judge-sec-* | Security, Privacy & Compliance |
judge-ai-* | Data Science & AI |
judge-ux-* | Product, Design & UX |
judge-qa-* | Quality, Testing & Performance |
judge-domain-* | Specialized Industry Domains |
judge-biz-* | Business, Legal & Corporate |
judge-crisis-* | Crisis & Support |
Step 3 — Display
Print a table per section:
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
SECTION I — ENGINEERING & ARCHITECTURE [Tier 1]
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Principal Systems Architect
file: judge-eng-principal-systems-architect.md
tags: architecture, system-design, code, backend, api
Lead Backend Engineer
file: judge-eng-lead-backend-engineer.md
tags: backend, code, api, performance, scalability
...
Then at the bottom:
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
TOTAL: N judges available
Synthesizer: .claude/agents/judge-synthesizer.md
Usage:
/judge <file> # smart selection, ≤10 judges
/judge <file> --panel security # security judges only
/judge <file> --solo appsec-engineer # one judge
/judge <file> --all # all matching judges
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Notes
- If
.claude/agents/ is empty or missing, tell the user to run /bootstrap-judges first.
- The
--solo flag accepts a partial match — the Coordinator will fuzzy-match the filename.
