Use A Second Model For Review
One agent writes the patch; another critiques it. The disagreement is where bugs hide.
- 1Name the job before naming the tool.
- 2Write the smallest useful scope the agent can finish.
- 3Run the result as a user, not as a fan of the tool.
- 4Inspect the diff, data access, and failure path before sharing.
Use this as the working prompt or checklist for the lesson.
Ask a second model: Review this diff for auth bypasses, data leaks, missing tests, and unrelated changes. Return only actionable findings with file names.- What should the user be able to do when this is finished?
- What data should the app or agent never expose?
- What test proves the change works?
- What rollback path exists if the output is wrong?
