Review Format

## Plan Review: [Feature Name]

### ✅ Strengths
- Clear task breakdown
- Good agent selection for backend

### ⚠️ Concerns
1. **Missing Testing Stage**
   - Problem: No testing allocated
   - Impact: Quality risk
   - Suggestion: Add Tester after Stage 3

2. **Underestimated Complexity**
   - Problem: Authentication estimated at 2h
   - Reality: Usually 4-6h with security review
   - Suggestion: Increase estimate, add SecurityGuard

### 🔄 Optimizations
- Stage 2 and 3 can run parallel
- Consider caching in Stage 4

### Revised Plan
[Updated version with fixes]
