The plugin had a single named agent (`agents/code-reviewer.md`) used by
two skills, while every other reviewer/implementer subagent in the repo
is dispatched as `general-purpose` with the prompt template living
alongside its skill. That asymmetry had no upside and several costs:
- Two sources of truth for the code review checklist (the agent file
and `requesting-code-review/code-reviewer.md`), both drifting
independently.
- `Codex` users could not use the named agent directly; the codex-tools
reference doc had a workaround section explaining how to flatten the
named agent into a `worker` dispatch.
- No third-party reliance on `superpowers:code-reviewer` inside this
repo.
Changes:
- Merge `agents/code-reviewer.md` (persona + checklist) and
`skills/requesting-code-review/code-reviewer.md` (placeholder
template) into a single self-contained Task-dispatch template,
matching the shape of `implementer-prompt.md`,
`spec-reviewer-prompt.md`, etc.
- Update `skills/requesting-code-review/SKILL.md` and
`skills/subagent-driven-development/code-quality-reviewer-prompt.md`
to dispatch `Task (general-purpose)` instead of the named agent.
- Drop the now-obsolete "Named agent dispatch" workaround sections from
`codex-tools.md` and `copilot-tools.md` — superpowers no longer ships
any named agents, so those instructions documented nothing.
- Delete `agents/code-reviewer.md` and the empty `agents/` directory.
Tier 3 coverage for the change: a new behavioral test
`tests/claude-code/test-requesting-code-review.sh` plants real bugs
(SQL injection, plaintext password handling, credential logging) into
a tiny project, runs the actual `requesting-code-review` skill against
the working tree, and asserts the dispatched reviewer flags every
planted issue at Critical/Important severity and refuses to approve
the diff.
Verified end-to-end on this branch:
- The new test passes (5/5 assertions; reviewer caught all planted
bugs and several others).
- The existing SDD integration test still passes (7/7 subagents
dispatched, all as `general-purpose`; spec compliance still
rejects extra features; produced code is correct).
- Session JSONLs confirm zero remaining `superpowers:code-reviewer`
dispatches anywhere in the SDD pipeline.
Add design-for-isolation and working-in-existing-codebases guidance to
brainstorming. Add file size awareness and escalation prompts to SDD
implementer and code quality reviewer. Writing-plans gets architecture
section sizing guidance. Spec and plan reviewers get architecture and
file size checks.
