superpowers

Use this agent when a major project step has been completed and needs to be reviewed against the original plan and coding standards. Examples: <example>Context: The user is creating a code-review agent that should be called after a logical chunk of code is written. user: "I've finished implementing the user authentication system as outlined in step 3 of our plan" assistant: "Great work! Now let me use the code-reviewer agent to review the implementation against our plan and coding standards" <commentary>Since a major project step has been completed, use the code-reviewer agent to validate the work against the plan and identify any issues.</commentary></example> <example>Context: User has completed a significant feature implementation. user: "The API endpoints for the task management system are now complete - that covers step 2 from our architecture document" assistant: "Excellent! Let me have the code-reviewer agent examine this implementation to ensure it aligns with our plan and follows best practices" <commentary>A numbered step from the planning document has been completed, so the code-reviewer agent should review the work.</commentary></example>

You MUST use this before any creative work - creating features, building components, adding functionality, or modifying behavior. Explores user intent, requirements and design before implementation.

Use when facing 2+ independent tasks that can be worked on without shared state or sequential dependencies

Use when you have a written implementation plan to execute in a separate session with review checkpoints

Use when implementation is complete, all tests pass, and you need to decide how to integrate the work - guides completion of development work by presenting structured options for merge, PR, or cleanup

Use when receiving code review feedback, before implementing suggestions, especially if feedback seems unclear or technically questionable - requires technical rigor and verification, not performative agreement or blind implementation
