Scaling Code Review with Specialized Multi-Agent Pipelines

Code review becomes a critical bottleneck as teams grow, consuming hours of developer time waiting for feedback. This article demonstrates a practical three-stage multi-agent architecture that reduces review time from hours to seconds by delegating tasks to specialized agents—lint checking, semantic analysis, and consolidation. The key insight is that effective multi-agent systems rely on clear handoffs and well-defined contracts rather than shared memory, providing a replicable pattern for teams struggling with review delays.
