Run the orch-review native Workflow over a diff (local changes or a GitHub PR) and report blocking vs advisory findings. Surface for the orch-review workflow.	pr-number | pr-url | blank for local uncommitted changes

/orch-review

Surface for workflows/orch-review.workflow.js — the native Workflow port of orch-pipeline Phase 5 (Review). This command computes a diff, hands it to the workflow, and presents the result. The workflow owns the fan-out (one reviewer per dimension, dedup, adversarial verify); this command owns input and output.

Input: $ARGUMENTS

Mode Selection

Input	Mode
Blank	Local Mode — review uncommitted changes
Number (e.g. 42) or PR URL	PR Mode — review a GitHub PR

Phase 1 — GATHER

Build the unified diff and the metadata the workflow needs.

Local Mode:

git diff --name-only HEAD          # changedFiles
git diff HEAD                      # diff text

If the diff is empty, stop: "Nothing to review."

PR Mode:

First derive a safe numeric PR id from $ARGUMENTS — never pass the raw argument to the shell. Accept either a bare integer, or the trailing number of a https://github.com/<owner>/<repo>/pull/<N> URL. Reject anything else (extra text, shell metacharacters, a non-PR URL) and stop with an error. Use only the extracted integer <NUMBER> below:

gh pr diff <NUMBER>                       # diff text
gh pr view <NUMBER> --json files \
  --jq '.files[].path'                    # changedFiles

If the PR is not found, stop with an error.

Then derive language from the dominant changed-file extension (for example .ts/.tsx to typescript, .py to python, .go to go). Leave it unset when the change is mixed or non-code — the workflow simply skips the language-specific reviewer.

Phase 2 — INVOKE

Call the Workflow tool. The workflow validates its own input and fails closed on a missing or empty diff, so always pass a non-empty diff.

Workflow({
  scriptPath: "workflows/orch-review.workflow.js",
  args: {
    diff: "<unified diff text from Phase 1>",   // required
    language: "typescript",                      // optional
    changedFiles: ["src/auth.ts"]                // optional — feeds the security trigger
  }
})

The workflow fans out reviewers in parallel, dedups findings on the normalized evidence snippet, and runs an adversarial verifier on every unique CRITICAL/HIGH finding. It returns:

{
  "verdict": "APPROVE" | "CHANGES_REQUESTED",
  "incomplete": false,                 // true if a review dimension failed to run
  "failedDimensions": [ /* { dimension, error } */ ],
  "blocking": [ /* confirmed CRITICAL/HIGH + unverifiable findings */ ],
  "advisory": [ /* MEDIUM/LOW + adversarially-refuted findings */ ],
  "stats": { "dimensions": 3, "failed": 0, "raw": 11, "unique": 4, "confirmed": 3, "unverified": 0, "uncertain": 0, "refuted": 1 }
}

Phase 3 — REPORT

Present the result to the user (this is the human review gate; the workflow does not commit anything):

• Lead with verdict and the stats line (dimensions, raw to unique collapse).
• List every blocking finding with file, severity, and evidence — these must clear before a commit. Findings tagged "could not be verified" stay in blocking by design; call them out as needing manual confirmation.
• List advisory findings briefly (MEDIUM/LOW and verifier-refuted items).
• If incomplete is true, state which dimensions in failedDimensions did not run and that the verdict is therefore not a clean approval.

Fail-Closed Contract

This command must never present a clean APPROVE when the review could not fully run. If the Workflow tool itself errors, report the failure — do not fall back to a hand-rolled review and do not imply the diff was approved.

Edge Cases

• No gh CLI (PR Mode): stop and tell the user PR Mode needs gh; suggest Local Mode against a checked-out branch instead.
• Large diff: the workflow caps reviewer concurrency automatically, so a large diff is slower but safe; warn the user it may take longer.
• Binary or generated files: drop them from changedFiles before invoking — they add noise to the security trigger without reviewable content.
