How to Review AI-Generated Code with Multiple AI Agents

How to Review AI-Generated Code with Multiple AI Agents

SMRTR summary

Something surprising happened when a developer asked one AI to review code written by a different AI: the reviewer couldn't tell that the final product was simply wrong.

Not broken. Not buggy. Just... not what was asked for.

This is the quiet problem emerging in AI-assisted software development. Developers are increasingly using models from different companies to check each other's work, reasoning that separate training means separate blind spots. But a reviewer that only sees the final code misses the original intent entirely.

In one telling example, a developer asked an AI agent to build two ad cards for two games. The agent built three. The code was clean. The tests passed. A standard review flagged nothing.

The fix, it turns out, isn't just about which AI does the reviewing. It's about giving the reviewer the full story: the original prompts, the decisions made along the way, the reasoning behind the result.

Without that, you're not reviewing the work. You're just admiring the destination.
