Implementation -> review cycles are very useful when iterating with CC. The point of the agent reviewer is not to take the place of your personal review, but to catch any low hanging fruit before you spend your valuable time reviewing.

And that would be great, if it wern't for the fact that I also have to review the reviewers review. So even for the "low hanging fruit", I need to double-check everything it does.

Which kinda eliminates the time savings.

  • That is not my perspective. I don't review every review, instead use a review agent with fresh context to find as much as possible. After all automated reviews pass, I then review the final output diff. It saves a lot of back and forth, especially with a tight prompt for the review agent. Give the reviewer specific things to check and you won't see nearly as much garbage in your review.
