• Before merging a pull request
• After implementing a major feature
• User wants quality assessment

What It Does

GPT-5.4 Guidance Alignment

• Default to concise, evidence-dense progress and completion reporting unless the user or risk level requires more detail.
• Treat newer user task updates as local overrides for the active workflow branch while preserving earlier non-conflicting constraints.
• If correctness depends on additional inspection, retrieval, execution, or verification, keep using the relevant tools until the review is grounded.
• Continue through clear, low-risk, reversible next steps automatically; ask only when the next step is materially branching, destructive, or preference-dependent.

   • Determine scope of review (specific files or entire PR)

2. Review Categories
