## Purpose
Multi-pass review of ADRs targeting ADR-specific failure modes: contradictory
decisions, missing rationale, implied-but-unrecorded decisions, and unresolved
trade-offs.

At depth 4+, dispatches to external AI models (Codex, Antigravity) for
independent review validation.

## Inputs
- docs/adrs/ (required) — ADRs to review
- docs/domain-models/ (required) — for coverage checking
- docs/plan.md (required) — for requirement tracing

## Expected Outputs
- docs/reviews/review-adrs.md — findings and resolution log
- docs/adrs/ — updated with fixes
- docs/reviews/adrs/review-summary.md (depth 4+) — multi-model review synthesis
- docs/reviews/adrs/codex-review.json (depth 4+, if available) — raw Codex findings
- docs/reviews/adrs/antigravity-review.json (depth 4+, if available) — raw Antigravity findings

## Quality Criteria
- (mvp) Contradiction check executed with findings documented
- (mvp) Every finding categorized P0-P3 with specific ADR number, section, and issue. Severity definitions: P0 = Breaks downstream work. P1 = Prevents quality milestone. P2 = Known tech debt. P3 = Polish.
- (deep) Missing decisions identified and documented
- (mvp) Contradictions resolved
- (mvp) Downstream readiness confirmed (architecture phase can proceed)
- (depth 4+) Multi-model findings synthesized: Consensus (all models agree), Majority (2+ models agree), or Divergent (models disagree — present to user for decision)

## Methodology Scaling
- **deep**: All review passes. Full findings report. Fixes applied and
  re-validated. Multi-model review dispatched to Codex and Antigravity if available,
  with graceful fallback to Claude-only enhanced review.
- **mvp**: Quick consistency check for contradictions only.
- **custom:depth(1-5)**:
  - Depth 1: single pass — contradiction check only.
  - Depth 2: two passes — contradiction check + missing rationale scan.
  - Depth 3: four passes — contradiction check, missing rationale, implied-but-unrecorded decisions, and unresolved trade-offs.
  - Depth 4: all passes + one external model (if CLI available).
  - Depth 5: all passes + multi-model with reconciliation.

## Mode Detection
Re-review mode if previous review exists. Check which findings were addressed.
If multi-model review artifacts exist under docs/reviews/adrs/, preserve prior
findings still valid.

## Update Mode Specifics

- **Detect**: `docs/reviews/review-adrs.md` exists with tracking comment
- **Preserve**: Prior findings still valid, resolution decisions, multi-model review artifacts
- **Triggers**: Upstream artifact changed since last review (compare tracking comment dates)
- **Conflict resolution**: Previously resolved findings reappearing = regression; flag and re-evaluate
