Use when the user asks for a multi-agent .NET code review - five parallel reviewers (correctness, performance, security/observability, data/messaging/integration, generalist) plus an adversarial maintainer that refutes weak findings. Requires the review agent roles registered by scripts/install-codex.sh. Keywords: dotnet review pipeline, multi-agent review, parallel reviewers, maintainer pushback, review this branch, cynical review.
Use when reviewing PRs/diffs/branches/documents for .NET quality, correctness, performance, security, data access, messaging, and observability. Includes adversarial critical-thinking mode for skeptical/cynical review requests. Keywords: code review, review PR, review diff, critical review, cynical review, adversarial review, production readiness, low GC, AOT, security review.
Use when reviewing a .NET pull request for breaking changes that may affect other microservice repositories. Detects cross-repo API, DTO, endpoint, EF entity, and NuGet-package breaks, and checks whether a compatible downstream PR already exists. Keywords: cross-repo impact, breaking change, microservice compatibility, downstream break, compatible PR, blast radius review, api compatibility, contract break, dto shape change, endpoint break.
Use when you need blast-radius analysis, dependency graphs, cross-repo impact, breaking-change diff, or architectural overview of .NET workspaces. Keywords: blast radius, dependency graph, impact analysis, cross-repo, call graph, endpoint map, EF Core lineage, breaking change, daemon, reindex.
Use when you need CRAP score and coverage risk analysis to find high-risk code before refactoring or release. Keywords: CRAP score, risk hotspots, cyclomatic complexity, test coverage gaps, coverage threshold.
Use when designing or changing public C#/.NET APIs with compatibility and versioning constraints. Keywords: breaking change, API design, backward compatibility, binary compatibility, deprecation strategy, versioning.
Use when writing or refactoring modern C# with maintainability and performance standards. Keywords: coding standards, C# best practices, refactor C#, records, pattern matching, async best practices.
Use when choosing .NET concurrency patterns for async I/O, queues, pipelines, or thread safety. Keywords: async/await, channels, dataflow, Rx, lock contention, producer consumer, parallel processing.
