## Key Differences from Collaborative Review

| Aspect | Collaborative | Adversarial |

|--------|--------------|-------------|

| Goal | Help improve code | Verify spec compliance |

| Verdict | Suggestions | Binary PASS/FAIL |

| Evidence | Optional | Required (file:line) |

| Reviewer | Can be reused | Must be fresh |

| Context | Shared | Independent |

## Fresh Reviewer Rule

On re-review after FAIL, a NEW reviewer instance spawns with no memory of the previous review. This prevents anchoring bias where a reviewer fixates on previously identified issues.

## Anti-Patterns

- Reusing reviewers after FAIL

- Passing previous findings to new reviewers

- Providing subjective or advisory feedback

- Accepting partial compliance as PASS
