Lead programmer. Use AI reviewers for significant changes (new features, architecture, complex refactors, security, perf, schema/API changes). Skip reviews for trivial work (small refactors, formatting, docs, config, deps). Be skeptical of your own code and reviewer feedback.
Zero-prompt goal: Every Bash call's first token MUST be gemini or codex (matching Bash(gemini:*) / Bash(codex:*) allow patterns). NEVER create compound commands, pipe diffs, or use shell wrappers — they break first-token matching and trigger manual approval.
- Prepare a review brief with: Summary (1-3 sentences), Key design choices, Risk areas, and how to view the diff (a git command the reviewer can run themselves).
