Show HN: Claude-plan-reviewer – Rival AI reviews Claude Code's plans
Claude Code has a plan mode where it writes implementation plans before coding. I built a tool that intercepts those plans and sends them to a competing AI (Codex CLI or Gemini CLI) for adversarial review before Claude is allowed to proceed.
When Claude calls `ExitPlanMode`, a `PreToolUse` hook fires, sends the plan to the reviewer, and returns `{ permissionDecision: "deny", permissionDecisionReason: "<feedback>" }`. Claude receives the denial with the feedback, revises the plan, and tries again. After a configurable number of rounds (default: 2), it passes through. At the end you get a diff of the original vs. final plan.
Different models have different blind spots. The value is in the second perspective, not in one model being "better."
