Cross-reference Findings
Wait for all subagents to report back, or stop at the declared fallback point. Synthesize their independent critiques. Look for structural contradictions, missed edge cases, maintenance traps, and (in the case of repo skills) duplicated intent. If a lens times out or returns unusable evidence, label it as missing_lens, partial_lens, timed_out_lens, or superseded_lens; either retry, continue with downgraded confidence, or state that the missing lens blocks a stronger claim. Include a compact lens-status summary whenever the MoE result affects implementation, evidence, or a readiness claim.
Example lens-status summary:
| Lens | Status | Integration |
|------|--------|-------------|
| Evidence QA | integrated | limited the claim ceiling |
| Operations QA | partial | accepted as input, not proof |
| Skeptic | timed_out | no stronger claim based on this lens |
When the Skeptic lens is active, name the smallest useful layer and any deletion/collapse option before recommending new tools; for broad surface-shape questions, also name whether the useful move is split, compress, promote, demote, delete, or stay native. When the Evidence / Retention QA lens is active, name the artifact status, claim protected, and retention/disposition route before recommending new evidence. If the critique would change durable docs, skills, contracts, or tooling, create or recommend a Pattern Promotion Review under docs/evidence/ instead of creating a new doctrine.
For broad repo pain, MoE may discover possible lane candidates and contradictions between lanes. These findings are advisory critique inputs only: they do not authorize writes, assign workers, accept results, or replace parent synthesis. Parent lane contracts and direct-fix authority belong to multi-agent-handoff.
