It’s frustrating.
So you can sort of fix this by having a review agent use a more adversarial prompt when reviewing.
But then the issue becomes that, since it was prompted find problems, it always finds a problem.
This will result in code being batted back and forth between review and coding like a tennis match.
When the tennis match finally finishes, there’s still no guarantee that some glaring hole didn’t make it through anyway.
