Fix a weak subagent config

A teammate left a code-reviewer subagent at .claude/agents/code-reviewer.md that has two problems:

  1. No stopping condition. Its system prompt just says "find problems and keep going until you are satisfied", so it tends to run for a long time and emit sprawling, unfocused reviews.
  2. Too much power. Its tools: list includes Edit and Write, which means the subagent can rewrite the very code it's supposed to be reviewing.

Fix both problems by editing the config.

Instrucţiuni

100 XP
  • Start Claude Code with claude.
  • Ask Claude to update @.claude/agents/code-reviewer.md to add a structured output format with the sections: Summary, Critical Issues, Major Issues, Minor Issues, Recommendations, Approval Status, and Obstacles Encountered.
  • Then ask Claude to restrict the subagent's tools to read-only plus Bash: that means Bash, Glob, Grep, Read. Edit and Write should be removed.
  • Type /exit to exit Claude Code.
