Use when asked to cold-read an artifact with fresh zero-context eyes and cut whatever a stranger cannot follow. Not for criteria-review of requirements docs: use doc-review.

# Fresh reader review

Can a new reader understand the artifact without the context that produced it?

## Contract

| Field | Bound contract |
|---|---|
| Trigger | User asks 'does this make sense to someone new' or 'cold-read this', or a README, document, skill, or PR description is about to ship. |
| Authority | Read-only. No file, VCS, credential, paid, published, deployed, or remote mutation. |
| Side effect | One or more isolated clean-room sub-sessions are dispatched depending on artifact stakes and size; the verdict and ordered fixes return in chat and the artifact is never edited. |
| Done | Blind sub-sessions, each reading only the inline artifact with no surrounding context, return a standalone verdict and severity-ordered fixes. |
