Phase 2: Parallel Review Coordination

Source: Shared from commands/workflow/review-session-cycle.md + commands/workflow/review-module-cycle.md Phase 2

Overview

Launch 7 dimension-specific review agents simultaneously using cli-explore-agent in Deep Scan mode.

Review Dimensions Configuration

7 Specialized Dimensions with priority-based allocation:

Dimension	Template	Priority	Timeout
Security	03-assess-security-risks.txt	1 (Critical)	60min
Architecture	02-review-architecture.txt	2 (High)	60min
Quality	02-review-code-quality.txt	3 (Medium)	40min
Action-Items	02-analyze-code-patterns.txt	2 (High)	40min
Performance	03-analyze-performance.txt	3 (Medium)	60min
Maintainability	02-review-code-quality.txt*	3 (Medium)	40min
Best-Practices	03-review-quality-standards.txt	3 (Medium)	40min

*Custom focus: "Assess technical debt and maintainability"

Category Definitions by Dimension:

const CATEGORIES = {
  security: ['injection', 'authentication', 'authorization', 'encryption', 'input-validation', 'access-control', 'data-exposure'],
  architecture: ['coupling', 'cohesion', 'layering', 'dependency', 'pattern-violation', 'scalability', 'separation-of-concerns'],
  quality: ['code-smell', 'duplication', 'complexity', 'naming', 'error-handling', 'testability', 'readability'],
  'action-items': ['requirement-coverage', 'acceptance-criteria', 'documentation', 'deployment-readiness', 'missing-functionality'],
  performance: ['n-plus-one', 'inefficient-query', 'memory-leak', 'blocking-operation', 'caching', 'resource-usage'],
  maintainability: ['technical-debt', 'magic-number', 'long-method', 'large-class', 'dead-code', 'commented-code'],
  'best-practices': ['convention-violation', 'anti-pattern', 'deprecated-api', 'missing-validation', 'inconsistent-style']
};

Severity Assessment

Severity Levels:

• Critical: Security vulnerabilities, data corruption risks, system-wide failures, authentication/authorization bypass
• High: Feature degradation, performance bottlenecks, architecture violations, significant technical debt
• Medium: Code smells, minor performance issues, style inconsistencies, maintainability concerns
• Low: Documentation gaps, minor refactoring opportunities, cosmetic issues

Iteration Trigger:

• Critical findings > 0 OR
• High findings > 5 OR
• Critical files count > 0

Orchestrator Responsibilities

• Spawn 7 @cli-explore-agent instances simultaneously (Deep Scan mode)
• Pass dimension-specific context (template, timeout, custom focus, target files)
• Monitor completion via review-progress.json updates
• Progress tracking: Mark dimensions as completed
• CLI tool fallback: Gemini → Qwen → Codex (on error/timeout)
• Lifecycle: spawn_agent → batch wait → close_agent for all 7 agents

Agent Output Schemas

Agent-produced JSON files follow standardized schemas:

1. Dimension Results (cli-explore-agent output from parallel reviews)

   • Schema: ~/.ccw/workflows/cli-templates/schemas/review-dimension-results-schema.json
   • Output: {output-dir}/dimensions/{dimension}.json
   • Contains: findings array, summary statistics, cross_references

2. Deep-Dive Results (cli-explore-agent output from iterations)

   • Schema: ~/.ccw/workflows/cli-templates/schemas/review-deep-dive-results-schema.json
   • Output: {output-dir}/iterations/iteration-{N}-finding-{uuid}.json
   • Contains: root_cause, remediation_plan, impact_assessment, reassessed_severity

Review Agent Invocation Template

Module Mode

Review Agent (parallel execution, 7 instances):

// Step 1: Spawn 7 agents in parallel
const reviewAgents = [];
const dimensions = ['security', 'architecture', 'quality', 'action-items', 'performance', 'maintainability', 'best-practices'];

dimensions.forEach(dimension => {
  const agentId = spawn_agent({

## TASK ASSIGNMENT

### MANDATORY FIRST STEPS (Agent Execute)
1. **Read role definition**: ~/.codex/agents/cli-explore-agent.md (MUST read first)
2. Read review state: ${reviewStateJsonPath}
3. Get target files: Read resolved_files from review-state.json
4. Validate file access: bash(ls -la ${targetFiles.join(' ')})
5. Execute: cat ~/.ccw/workflows/cli-templates/schemas/review-dimension-results-schema.json (get output schema reference)
6. Read: ${projectRoot}/.workflow/project-tech.json (technology stack and architecture context)
7. Read: ${projectRoot}/.workflow/project-guidelines.json (user-defined constraints and conventions to validate against)

---

## Task Objective
Conduct comprehensive ${dimension} code exploration and analysis using Deep Scan mode (Bash + Gemini dual-source strategy) for specified module files

## Analysis Mode Selection
Use **Deep Scan mode** for this review:
- Phase 1: Bash structural scan for standard patterns (classes, functions, imports)
- Phase 2: Gemini semantic analysis for design intent, non-standard patterns, ${dimension}-specific concerns
- Phase 3: Synthesis with attribution (bash-discovered vs gemini-discovered findings)

## Review Context
- Review Type: module (independent)
- Review Dimension: ${dimension}
- Review ID: ${reviewId}
- Target Pattern: ${targetPattern}
- Resolved Files: ${resolvedFiles.length} files
- Output Directory: ${outputDir}

## CLI Configuration
- Tool Priority: gemini → qwen → codex (fallback chain)
- Custom Focus: ${customFocus || 'Standard dimension analysis'}
- Mode: analysis (READ-ONLY)
- Context Pattern: ${targetFiles.map(f => '@' + f).join(' ')}

## Expected Deliverables

   Finding required fields:
   - id: format \`{dim}-{seq}-{uuid8}\` e.g., \`sec-001-a1b2c3d4\` (lowercase)

## Task Objective
Perform focused root cause analysis using Dependency Map mode (for impact analysis) + Deep Scan mode (for semantic understanding) to generate comprehensive remediation plan for critical ${dimension} issue

## Analysis Mode Selection
Use **Dependency Map mode** first to understand dependencies:
- Build dependency graph around ${file} to identify affected components
- Detect circular dependencies or tight coupling related to this finding
- Calculate change risk scores for remediation impact

Then apply **Deep Scan mode** for semantic analysis:
- Understand design intent and architectural context
- Identify non-standard patterns or implicit dependencies
- Extract remediation insights from code structure

## Finding Context
- Finding ID: ${findingId}
- Original Dimension: ${dimension}
- Title: ${findingTitle}
- File: ${file}:${line}
- Severity: ${severity}
- Category: ${category}
- Original Description: ${description}
- Iteration: ${iteration}

## CLI Configuration
- Tool Priority: gemini → qwen → codex
- Template: ~/.ccw/workflows/cli-templates/prompts/analysis/01-diagnose-bug-root-cause.txt
- Mode: analysis (READ-ONLY)

## Expected Deliverables

**Schema Reference**: Schema obtained in MANDATORY FIRST STEPS step 6, follow schema exactly

1. Deep-Dive Results JSON: ${outputDir}/iterations/iteration-${iteration}-finding-${findingId}.json

   - cli_tool_used, model, analysis_duration_ms
   - original_finding, root_cause, remediation_plan
   - impact_assessment, reassessed_severity, confidence_score, cross_references

   All nested objects must follow schema exactly - read schema for field names

2. Analysis Report: ${outputDir}/reports/deep-dive-${iteration}-${findingId}.md
   - Detailed root cause analysis
   - Step-by-step remediation plan
   - Impact assessment and rollback strategy

## Success Criteria
- [ ] Schema obtained via cat review-deep-dive-results-schema.json
- [ ] Root cause clearly identified with supporting evidence
- [ ] Remediation plan is step-by-step actionable with exact file:line references
- [ ] Each step includes specific commands and validation tests
- [ ] Impact fully assessed (files, tests, breaking changes, dependencies)
- [ ] Severity re-evaluation justified with evidence
- [ ] Confidence score accurately reflects certainty of analysis
- [ ] JSON output follows schema exactly
- [ ] References include project-specific and external documentation
