Adversarial Review
An AI code review pattern in which the reviewer and the producer are different model instances. The reviewer is prohibited from consulting the generation process and searches for problems solely on the basis of the final diff, so as to avoid interpretive bias.

"AI clone fault-finding" is an adversarial review model: the reviewer and the producer are played by different model instances, and the reviewer is forbidden from consulting the generation process and only looks at the diff, to avoid the "explanatory bias" of the generating side defending its own changes.
The failure mode of adversarial review is that the model easily treats hypothetical concerns as issues that must be addressed, leading to defensive over-engineering.
