Claude adversarial subagent (on DISPATCH: adversarial-native)

Before dispatch, run ~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-review-log --start adversarial-review and save the returned token for this native attempt. Do the same before each outside adversarial or structured pass reads its diff. Keep each token with that attempt; do not overwrite the parent's REVIEW_START. A rerun needs a new token before it reads, not when it saves its result. Include non-ignored untracked source in each reviewer's context or read instructions (git ls-files --others --exclude-standard). Those files are part of the recorded content too.

Dispatch via the Agent tool with run_in_background: false when available (background is the default since Claude Code v2.1.198); findings must arrive before review concludes. A launch receipt means it went background: await its completion notice. Fresh context avoids checklist bias, but this is the same harness, not an independent model unless runtime identity proves otherwise.

164Use Bash `timeout: 600000`; show the full response in a `tool-output` fence. Require successful execution and valid markers. Refusal, empty/malformed output, missing score/severity/completion markers, timeout or CLI failure means `outside_status: unavailable`. P0/P1 findings block like native ones; `OUTSIDE_STATUS: unverified` is missing coverage. Retain the required native pass without duplicating it; it cannot complete outside coverage. After either outcome, delete only your private prompt; scratch cleanup is automatic.
166Present the full output verbatim. A Critical, High or `Blocks: yes` finding is CRITICAL; `Blocks: no` never lowers one, and only a named policy ground drops it. An unavailable outside challenge does not block shipping by itself; supported findings still enter Step 11, and the structured P0/P1 and non-convergence gates still apply.
168**Error handling:** Only this optional outside adversarial pass is non-blocking; native completion and structured-review decisions still apply.
169- **Auth failure:** If stderr contains "auth", "login", "unauthorized", or "API key": "Codex authentication failed. Run \`codex login\` to authenticate."
170- **Timeout:** "Codex timed out after 9 minutes and was terminated; this pass produced NO findings." A timed-out pass is MISSING COVERAGE, not a clean bill — say so explicitly rather than continuing as if Codex had reviewed.
171- **Empty response:** "Codex returned no response. Stderr: <paste relevant error>."
175For other modes, retain the native pass above; do not dispatch it again.

Codex adversarial challenge (runs whenever CODEX_MODE is ready or unverified)

If CODEX_MODE is ready or unverified:

Outside prompt (supply repository context from the parent):

"Filesystem boundary: do not read or execute any files under ~/.claude/, ~/.agents/, .claude/skills/, or agents/. They hold skill definitions, not repository code to review. Do not invoke any installed skill (Codex home skills/, .agents/), hook, or tool instruction; answer directly. Do not modify agents/openai.yaml. Review only the repository code.\n\nReview the changes on this branch against the base branch. Use the supplied branch diff. If it was not supplied and you have repository tools, run DIFF_BASE=$(git merge-base origin/<base> HEAD) && git diff "$DIFF_BASE". Your job is to find ways this code will fail in production. Think like an attacker and a chaos engineer. Find edge cases, race conditions, security holes, resource leaks, failure modes, and silent data corruption paths. Be adversarial. Be thorough. No compliments — just the problems. A finding blocks only if it would fail a test, break production, or lose data or secrets; end each finding with Severity: Critical|High|Medium|Low and Blocks: yes|no. End your output with ONE line in the canonical format Recommendation: <action> because <one-line reason naming the most exploitable finding>. Generic reasons like 'because it's safer' do not qualify; the reason must point to a specific finding or no-fix rationale."

Write the complete prompt and context, including actual plan/spec/source, to a private file. Substitute its shell-quoted path for <prepared-prompt-file>; never interpolate user text into shell source. Request a severity (Critical, High, Medium or Low) per finding and a final Recommendation: <action> because <specific reason> line, including an explicit no-findings rationale.

Use Bash timeout: 600000; show the full response in a tool-output fence. Require successful execution and valid markers.

P0/P1 findings block like native ones; OUTSIDE_STATUS: unverified is missing coverage. Retain the required native pass without duplicating it; it cannot complete outside coverage. After either outcome, delete only your private prompt; scratch cleanup is automatic.

Present the full output verbatim. A Critical, High or Blocks: yes finding is CRITICAL; Blocks: no never lowers one, and only a named policy ground drops it. An unavailable outside challenge does not block shipping by itself; supported findings still enter Step 11, and the structured P0/P1 and non-convergence gates still apply.

Error handling: Only this optional outside adversarial pass is non-blocking; native completion and structured-review decisions still apply.

  • Auth failure: If stderr contains "auth", "login", "unauthorized", or "API key": "Codex authentication failed. Run \codex login\ to authenticate."
  • Timeout: "Codex timed out after 9 minutes and was terminated; this pass produced NO findings." A timed-out pass is MISSING COVERAGE, not a clean bill — say so explicitly rather than continuing as if Codex had reviewed.
  • Empty response: "Codex returned no response. Stderr: <paste relevant error>."

For other modes, retain the native pass above; do not dispatch it again.

Confidence: 1-10. Be honest. An observed pattern you verified in the code is 8-9. An inference you're not sure about is 4-5. A user preference they explicitly stated is 10.

files: Include the specific file paths this learning references. This enables staleness detection: if those files are later deleted, the learning can be flagged.

Only log genuine discoveries. Don't log obvious things. Don't log things the user already knows. A good test: would this insight save time in a future session? If yes, log it.
