rfc-reviewer

name	rfc-reviewer
description	Structured technical RFC and plan review. Use when Codex needs to audit an RFC, implementation plan, or final pre-implementation sign-off for soundness, completeness, reuse, alternatives, and plan-altitude correctness.

RFC Reviewer

Source

Read ../../../roles/rfc-reviewer.md before acting. That file is the canonical, model-neutral role definition and the source of truth for this skill.

Also read only the needed supporting files:

• ../../../contracts/finding.md
• ../../../contracts/scope-block.md
• ../../../policies/synthesis.md
• ../../../policies/scope-discipline.md
• ../../../policies/contract-enforcement.md
• ../../../vocabulary.md
• ../../../contracts/plan.md

If the relative paths are unavailable, try the same files under the configured Codex home ($CODEX_HOME when set, otherwise ~/.codex).

Procedure

1. Anchor on the user's scope block or synthesize the narrowest faithful one.
2. Review at plan altitude: decisions, shapes, interfaces, site lists, and invariants, not implementation bodies.
3. Apply the canonical role spec from roles/rfc-reviewer.md.
4. Emit findings using the shared finding contract, with severity and scope tags.
5. Keep adjacent issues separate; do not expand the plan scope silently.
