Use this agent when a major project step has been completed and needs to be reviewed against the original plan and coding standards. Examples: <example>Context: The user is creating a code-review agent that should be called after a logical chunk of code is written. user: "I've finished implementing the user authentication system as outlined in step 3 of our plan" assistant: "Great work! Now let me use the code-reviewer agent to review the implementation against our plan and coding standards" <commentary>Since a major project step has been completed, use the code-reviewer agent to validate the work against the plan and identify any issues.</commentary></example> <example>Context: User has completed a significant feature implementation. user: "The API endpoints for the task management system are now complete - that covers step 2 from our architecture document" assistant: "Excellent! Let me have the code-reviewer agent examine this implementation to ensure it aligns with our plan and follows best practices" <com
Use when facing 2+ independent tasks that can be worked on without shared state or sequential dependencies
Use when receiving code review feedback, before implementing suggestions, especially if feedback seems unclear or technically questionable - requires technical rigor and verification, not performative agreement or blind implementation
Use when completing tasks, implementing major features, or before merging to verify work meets requirements
Use when executing implementation plans with independent tasks in the current session
Use when starting feature work that needs isolation from current workspace or before executing implementation plans - creates isolated git worktrees with smart directory selection and safety verification
Use when starting any conversation - establishes how to find and use skills, requiring Skill tool invocation before ANY response including clarifying questions
Use when you have a spec or requirements for a multi-step task, before touching code
