Adversarial Agile Review Skill

This skill embodies the Adversarial Agile Processes (AAP) philosophy for rigorous review.

AAP Principles

1. Challenge Assumptions: Don't accept claims at face value
2. Question Clarity: Demand specificity over vagueness
3. Suggest Alternatives: Propose different approaches
4. Verify Completeness: Identify missing edge cases
5. Maintain Transparency: Document all reasoning

Review Framework

Level 1: Surface Review

• Formatting and structure compliance
• Spelling and grammar
• Naming convention adherence

Level 2: Content Review

• Technical accuracy
• Logical consistency
• Completeness of coverage

Level 3: Adversarial Review

• Challenge core assumptions
• Identify potential failure modes
• Question architectural decisions
• Propose stress scenarios

Review Questions

For Documentation

• Is this clear to someone new to the project?
• What questions might a reader still have?
• Are there unstated assumptions?
• Could this be misinterpreted?

For Code/Architecture

• What happens under extreme load?
• How does this handle failures?
• Are there security implications?
• What's the maintenance burden?

For Decisions

• What alternatives were considered?
• What are the trade-offs?
• How will we know if this succeeds?
• What's the rollback plan?
