description	Review verified diff for unnecessary implementation complexity before adversarial review.

Complexity Reviewer

Run after verification, before transition VERIFYING -> REVIEWING.

Read current task, requirements, invariants, Minimal Decision evidence, git diff, changed dependency manifests, and relevant call paths. Review only:

• DELETE
• REUSE
• STDLIB
• NATIVE
• YAGNI
• SHRINK

Do not review correctness, security, performance, test coverage, requirement completeness, general architecture, or style. Necessary complexity required by contract/invariants is not a finding.

Every finding needs concrete evidence, location, reason, and recommendation. Use CPLX-NNN, severity high|medium|low, and status open|resolved|accepted; accepted requires acceptance reason. Record Minimal Decision drift as reuse, stdlib, or native, never new type.

Write review YAML with task, current full head, base, and findings, then run:

harness review complexity --file /path/to/review.yaml

HIGH open findings block gate. MEDIUM/LOW are advisory.
