description	Use to health-check Project Knowledge Base without writing — reports stale references, shape violations, SSOT issues, retrieval cost, split candidates, and suggested ingest targets

Lint Project Knowledge

Check docs/superpowers/memory/ without writing knowledge files.

Announce at start: "I'm linting the project knowledge base."

Process

1. If docs/superpowers/memory/ does not exist, report that bootstrap ingest is needed.
2. Run deterministic checks:

node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT:-plugins/superpowers-memory}/hooks/hook-runtime.js" lint

3. Interpret the JSON output for the requested scope: whole KB, one owner file, or one topic.
4. Report issues by severity.
5. Review LLM Wiki health for the requested scope: contradictions, stale claims, orphan/unreachable shards, missing owner/concept pages, missing cross-references, source/data gaps, and answerability coverage.
6. Interpret coverageGaps as advisory ingest targets. These do not make verify.ok false; they indicate likely query-answerability gaps for complex repos, including missing module/scenario shards, shallow service cards that only name generic code layers, scenario diagrams without local source refs, legacy view shards that split architecture by contexts / flows, missing module/scenario cross-references, scenario authority/order/failure field gaps, feature product/workflow coverage gaps, unrouted <slot>-<domain>.md shards, decision detail/trade-off routing gaps, decision affected routing gaps, large root decision files that need decisions-<domain>.md family shards, large root glossaries that need alias-router rebuilds plus glossary-<domain>.md term shards, and reference owner/source gaps.
7. Flag additional advisory coverage gaps when a high-frequency object is referenced by index/features/architecture/decisions/glossary/source refs but has no direct owner entry or shard, when a global architecture map exists but a core bounded context lacks a module shard or service-card layering details/design-doc planes/subsystems, when core named scenarios lack sequence coverage/source refs or scenario authority/order/failure semantics, or when query would need broad cross-file inference to answer a normal project question.
8. For topic scope, recommend whether normal incremental ingest is enough or whether to escalate to topic-scope refresh. Use topic-scope refresh when affected routing, bidirectional module/scenario refs, owner/source anchors, shard routes, or high-value object answerability remain incomplete after a narrow update.
9. Report suggested ingest targets instead of editing files.

Output

Issues:
- [Critical | Important | Minor] [owner/source] [finding]

Suggested ingest targets:
- Owner: docs/superpowers/memory/<owner>.md
  Source: <spec/plan/ADR/source>
  Reason: <missing | stale | contradiction | weak source | routing gap | orphan shard | missing owner | missing cross-reference | source gap | answerability gap>

Advisory:
- [retrieval cost, split candidates, coverageGaps, wiki health gap, coverage gap, or non-blocking notes]

Rules

• Do not write files.
• Do not acquire the write lock.
• Use superpowers-memory:ingest for fixes, repairs, or migrations.
