review-branch: lift kendo reviewer-pair redesign - #20

Conversation
Replace the five-agent pipeline (acceptance + simplicity, conditional
silent-failure / efficiency) with kendo's always-on pair:
runtime-integrity-reviewer + precedent-reviewer, spawned in parallel on
every branch. Lifted from kendo .claude/skills/review-branch (2026-07-27).
Lifted:
- "The two questions" section: one question per reviewer, no trigger
patterns, no conditional specialists.
- Step 2 resolves docs/plans/<slug>/ first, then docs/bugs/<slug>/; the
review is optional on bug branches (bug-fix-verifier is their gate).
- No-directory fallback still spawns both agents and reports in chat.
- Step 1 no longer pulls the full diff into the orchestrator.
- The REVIEW_CLAUDE.md format is inlined in Step 4 with Runtime Integrity
/ Precedent sections. Synthesis rules add the "Required Fixes means
don't open a PR" calibration.
Generalised:
- origin/development -> origin/{{DEFAULT_BRANCH}}.
- "ADR projections in backend/CLAUDE.md and frontend/CLAUDE.md" -> "the
repo's standing rules (every CLAUDE.md, plus an ADR set where one
exists)".
- Dropped the .claude/REVIEWERS.md citation (DECISIONS.md D2); each agent
carries its own calibration.
references/review-file-format.md is no longer linked from this skill. It
is deleted in the follow-up pr PR, which removes the last link to it.

…allbacks Lifted from kendo (2026-07-27): steps 4-6 resolve against a <root>; new "Which root" section (docs/plans/ then docs/bugs/ for /review-branch, plans win on collision); /review-branch and /pr fallback lines match the docs/bugs/ support already merged in review-branch (#20) and pr (#26). Generalised: the issue-key example in step 5 uses {{ISSUE_KEY_PREFIX}}.
