| name | config-audit |
| description | Run a full audit of the user's Claude Code configuration via the Agent Monitor Config Explorer API: counts per surface (user vs project), duplicate or overlapping skills and subagents, hooks that run shell commands, and which surfaces are read-only vs mutable. Reads /api/cc-config/overview, /skills, /agents, /commands, /hooks, and /settings. Use when reviewing your Claude Code setup for sprawl, duplication, or risk.

Config Audit
Produce a complete, data-backed audit of how the user's ~/.claude
configuration has grown, what overlaps, and what is risky — all read through
the Agent Monitor dashboard at http://localhost:4820.
Input
The user provides: $ARGUMENTS
This may be:
- empty or "full" — audit every surface (default).
- "skills" / "agents" / "commands" / "hooks" / "settings" — scope the audit to
one surface only.
- a project path passed as
?cwd= — to audit a project other than the
dashboard server's own working directory.
Data Sources
| Endpoint | Returns |
|---|
GET /api/cc-config/overview | roots + counts for every surface, split {user,project} where applicable (skills, agents, commands, outputStyles, plugins, mcpServers, hooks, memory, settingsFiles) |
GET /api/cc-config/skills | { items:[{ scope, name, file, size, mtime, frontmatter, preview }] } |
GET /api/cc-config/agents | { items:[{ scope, name, file, size, mtime, frontmatter, preview }] } |
GET /api/cc-config/commands | { items:[{ scope, name, file, size, mtime, frontmatter, preview }] } |
GET /api/cc-config/hooks | { items:[{ scope, file, exists, hooks:{ <Event>:[{matcher,type,command,timeout}] } }] } |
GET /api/cc-config/settings | { items:[{ scope, file, exists, data(redacted), raw_size }] } |
Report Sections
1. Surface inventory (user vs project)
From /overview counts, print a table: one row per surface with user,
project, and total columns. Cover skills, agents, commands, output-styles,
plugins (with enabled/disabled), marketplaces, MCP servers, hooks
(user/project/project-local), memory, and settings files. Echo the resolved
roots so the user knows which claudeHome/project was inspected.
2. Duplicate & overlapping skills + agents
Fetch /skills and /agents. Detect:
- Name collisions across scope — same
name at both user and project
scope (project shadows user). List both file paths.
- Near-duplicates — entries whose
frontmatter.description / preview
describe the same job. Group them and recommend keeping one.
3. Hooks that run shell commands
Flatten /hooks to (scope, file, Event, matcher, type, command, timeout).
Flag every type: "command" entry. Within those, escalate ones that contain
network egress (curl, wget, http, nc) or run unbounded with no
timeout. Print the raw command so the user can review it.
4. Read-only vs mutable surfaces
State which surfaces the Config Explorer can mutate (skills, agents, commands,
output-styles, user/project CLAUDE.md, and per-project auto-memory files via
PUT/DELETE /api/cc-config/file) versus those that are read-only by design
(plugins, MCP servers, settings.json and its in-file hooks — written
concurrently by the running CLI). Direct cleanup suggestions only at mutable
surfaces; for read-only ones, name the source file to edit by hand.
Output
- A one-line verdict first: CLEAN / SPRAWL DETECTED / RISKY HOOKS.
- Section 1 as a Markdown table (
Surface | User | Project | Total).
- Section 2 as grouped lists with
file paths.
- Section 3 as a table (
Scope | Event | Matcher | Command | Risk).
- Sizes in KB; any cost in USD to 4 decimals; use ▲/▼ for scope deltas.
- Cite only fields the API returned — never fabricate counts or commands.
- If the dashboard is unreachable at
http://localhost:4820, say so and tell
the user to start it with npm start from the repo root.
