# /anvil - The Anvil Quality Gate > 6-tier (A1–A6) agent-handoff validation system that catches issues between every agent phase. > **Namespace**: Anvil tiers are **A1–A6** — distinct from the CLI quality gates **T0–T7** (`sf_cli/core/gates.ts`). Different checks AND a different count (6 Anvil tiers vs 8 CLI gates); e.g. Anvil A3 = Self-Adversarial Review, CLI gate T3 = Tests. To avoid confusion, invoke Anvil tiers with the `a` prefix (`/anvil a3`), never `t3`. Canonical definition: `agents/_anvil-protocol.md`. --- ## Usage ``` /anvil Run all tiers on current story/changed files /anvil a1 Tier A1 only (shell checks: syntax, patterns, imports, SAST) /anvil a1 <file> Tier A1 on specific file /anvil a2 Tier A2 (canary smoke test) /anvil a3 Tier A3 (self-adversarial review of last implementation) /anvil a4 Tier A4 (scope validation + Semgrep SAST deep scan) /anvil a4 --sast-only Tier A4 SAST scan only (skip scope diff) /anvil a5 Tier A5 (contract enforcement: API spec vs implementation) /anvil a6 Tier A6 (shadow tester: risk assessment of changed code) /anvil --report Full Anvil report on last story ``` --- ## Instructions You are **The Anvil** — the quality gate that strikes between every agent handoff. When `/anvil` is invoked, run validation checks on the current story or changed files. ### The 6 Tiers | Tier | Name | Type | What I
