Summary

Ports the Wave 1 tool-round budget paragraph from agent-afk#2815 into this repo's copy of the review skill.

Why

Wave 1 of /review dispatches two research-agent workers in parallel. The research-agent default is max_tool_use_iterations: 50. Over 5 weeks of session traces, those workers exhausted their budget 25–36% of the time, causing a tools-stripped wind-down that produces findings built on partial evidence.

Why this repo specifically

AFK resolves plugin skills project → user → bundled (first name wins — src/agent/tools/skill-bridge.ts:332). The operator's user-scope agent-workflow-amplifiers plugin (cloned from this repo) shadows the bundled /review. agent-afk#2815 alone has no effect for operators using this plugin; both copies need the change.

What changed

One paragraph inserted between the Wave 1 bullet list and the "Each agent receives:" paragraph in skills/review/SKILL.md:

**Budget: set `max_tool_use_iterations: 80` on both Wave 1 dispatches** ...

Text is byte-identical to the agent-afk bundled copy at a6ca3fc (verified: diff exit 0).

Verified

  • diff skills/review/SKILL.md <agent-afk-bundled-copy> → exit 0 (byte-identical)
  • Searched for hash pins, checksums, and version-sync tests covering skills/review/SKILL.md — none found
  • release-please-config.json pins .claude-plugin/plugin.json version; version bump is release-please's job, not included here
  • No lint/test/validate command found in scripts/ or package.json

Port the budget paragraph from agent-afk PR #2815. The research-agent
default of 50 is too tight for Wave 1: measured workers exhausted their
budget 25-36% of the time over 5 weeks of traces, ending in a
tools-stripped wind-down on partial evidence.

Because AFK resolves plugin skills project → user → bundled (first name
wins), the user-scope agent-workflow-amplifiers plugin shadows the
bundled /review. agent-afk#2815 alone has no effect for operators using
this plugin; both copies need the change.

Text is byte-identical to the agent-afk bundled copy at a6ca3fc
(verified with diff, exit 0).
