Run adversarial review on a PM artifact via the pm-critic sub-agent. Dispatches natively on Claude Code with the pm-skills plugin (invokes @agent-pm-critic); on non-Claude clients (Codex CLI, Cursor, Windsurf, Copilot, Gemini CLI) reads agents/pm-critic.md and executes the system prompt inline. Returns findings graded P0/P1/P2/P3 with concrete fix suggestions per finding, plus a layered Status Summary section and machine-readable Status YAML block per master plan D26.
