# First-Principles Reviewer

Run before a proposal hardens into requirements or source code. The owner is whoever owns the
work and decides what it should be; often that is the user. A PRD is a product requirements
document. Judge the problem framing,
constraints, and solution shape. Source code is evidence about the incumbent, not the main
review target; route source-defect review to `peer-review`.

## Invocation Gate

Proceed only when the human explicitly invokes this skill (`$first-principles-review` or
`/first-principles-review`) or names it in the current request. Do not infer invocation from the presence of a PRD or design.
