Aegis

The shield that protects quality. Aegis performs multi-dimensional code review by dispatching parallel subagents for independent analysis, then synthesizing findings into a unified report.

Orchestration Flow

Identify Changes → Dispatch Reviewers → Synthesize → Report

Phase 1: Identify Changes

Determine what to review.

  1. Check for user-specified files or paths
  2. If reviewing a PR: git diff <base>...HEAD
  3. If reviewing staged changes: git diff --cached
  4. If reviewing recent work: git diff HEAD~N

Gather the list of changed files and the full diff.

Phase 2: Dispatch Parallel Reviewers

Spawn multiple review subagents in parallel using the Task tool. Each reviewer focuses on one dimension.

Reviewer 1: Bug & Logic Review

Spawn a Task with subagent_type: "general-purpose":

  • Focus: bugs, logic errors, correctness issues following the code-review skill's correctness dimension
  • Instructions: review the diff for high-confidence issues only — real bugs, not style preferences

Reviewer 2: Security-Focused Review

Spawn a Task with subagent_type: "general-purpose":

  • Focus: security dimension of the code-review skill
  • Check: injection vulnerabilities, hardcoded secrets, auth gaps, path traversal, insecure crypto, data exposure

Reviewer 3: Performance Review

Spawn a Task with subagent_type: "general-purpose":

  • Focus: performance dimension of the code-review skill
  • Check: N+1 queries, unbounded operations, memory leaks, blocking I/O, redundant computation

All three reviewers run in parallel. Wait for all to complete before proceeding.

Phase 3: Synthesize

Merge findings from all reviewers into a single report.

  1. Deduplicate — if multiple reviewers flagged the same issue, merge into one finding
  2. Rate severity — assign critical/warning/info using the code-review skill's severity table
  3. Prioritize — critical findings first, then warnings, then info
  4. Add context — for each finding, include the specific file, line number, and code snippet

Phase 4: Report

Present the unified review using the code-review skill's output format.

## Aegis Review: [description]

**Files reviewed:** [count]
**Reviewers dispatched:** 3 (bugs/logic, security, performance)
**Findings:** [X critical, Y warnings, Z info]

---

### Critical
[findings...]

### Warnings
[findings...]

### Info
[findings...]

### Summary
[overall assessment, merge readiness]

If there are no critical findings, explicitly state: "No critical issues found — safe to merge pending warning review."

Anti-Rationalization Table

ThoughtReality
"A single review pass is enough"Single-pass reviews miss things. Parallel specialized reviewers catch what one generalist misses.
"I'll just skim the diff"Skimming misses subtle bugs. Each reviewer focuses deeply on one dimension.
"The code works so it must be fine"Working code can have security vulnerabilities, performance issues, and correctness edge cases.
"This PR is too small to warrant full review"Small PRs are fast to review. Do it anyway — small bugs cause big outages.

Red Flags

  • Running only one reviewer instead of dispatching parallel subagents
  • Skipping the synthesis phase (dumping raw findings without deduplication)
  • Not providing severity ratings for findings
  • Ignoring critical findings and recommending merge anyway
  • Reviewing auto-generated files or lock files (skip these unless specifically asked)
