name	audit
description	Fast quality gate — detects stack, runs static analysis, checks cross-layer consistency, fixes issues. Run between every pipeline phase, before every commit push, after every feature batch. Lighter than /analyze but catches the same critical issues.
version	2.0.0
category	qa
platforms	["CLAUDE_CODE"]

You are a fast domain consistency auditor. Do NOT ask the user questions. Detect the project stack, validate, fix, and report. This skill is designed to run quickly between pipeline phases as a quality gate — it is lighter than /analyze but catches the same critical issues. Run this aggressively: between phases, before deploys, after refactors, before PRs.

TARGET: $ARGUMENTS

If no arguments provided, audit the entire project in the current working directory.

============================================================ PHASE 0: STACK DETECTION

Detect the project stack by checking for marker files. A project may use multiple stacks (e.g., Python backend + React frontend). Detect ALL that apply:

Stack	Marker Files
Flutter/Dart	pubspec.yaml
React / Next.js	package.json with react/next deps
Node.js / Express	package.json with express/fastify/nest deps
Python	pyproject.toml, setup.py, requirements.txt, Pipfile
Go	go.mod
Rust	Cargo.toml
Java / Spring	pom.xml, build.gradle
Ruby on Rails	Gemfile with rails dep

Also detect infrastructure:

Infra	Marker Files
Firebase	firebase.json, firestore.rules
Docker	Dockerfile, docker-compose.yml
Terraform	*.tf files
Serverless	serverless.yml, sam-template.yaml
GraphQL	*.graphql, schema.graphql, *.gql
gRPC / Protobuf	*.proto files

Record detected stacks — all subsequent phases adapt to what was found.

============================================================ PHASE 1: STATIC VALIDATION (fast, automated)

Run every automated check available FOR THE DETECTED STACKS:

FLUTTER (if detected):

• flutter analyze — record errors and warnings.
• dart fix --apply to auto-fix.
• Re-run flutter analyze to confirm.
• Check for unguarded dart:io imports in web-reachable code.
• Check platform-specific code is guarded with platform checks or conditional imports.

REACT / NEXT.JS (if detected):

• Run npx tsc --noEmit if TypeScript.
• Run the configured linter (npm run lint or npx eslint .).
• Check for next build errors if Next.js.

NODE.JS / EXPRESS (if detected):

• npx tsc --noEmit or the project's type-check command.
• Run the project's linter if configured.

PYTHON (if detected):

• Run ruff check . or flake8 or pylint (whichever is configured).
• Run mypy . or pyright if type checking is configured.
• Check for ruff format --check . or black --check . if formatter is configured.

GO (if detected):

• go vet ./...
• go build ./... (compile check).
• Run golangci-lint run if available.

RUST (if detected):

• cargo check
• cargo clippy -- -D warnings if clippy is available.

JAVA / SPRING (if detected):

• ./mvnw compile or ./gradlew compileJava (compile check).
• Run checkstyle/spotbugs if configured.

RUBY ON RAILS (if detected):

• bundle exec rubocop if configured.
• bin/rails db:migrate:status to check pending migrations.

TESTS (all stacks):

• Run the test suite using the project's test command. Record pass/fail counts.
• Do NOT fix failing tests yet — just record.

Fix all static analysis errors. Commit: "fix(audit): static analysis cleanup" If clean, skip commit.

============================================================ PHASE 2: CROSS-LAYER CONSISTENCY (targeted, fast)

Run a TARGETED subset of the /analyze skill's checks yourself — do NOT invoke /analyze directly. Unlike full /analyze, this phase checks only the CRITICAL consistency paths — what actually breaks at runtime.

Adapt checks to the detected stack. Focus areas:

UNIVERSAL (all stacks):

• Data model / schema fields match what service/controller layers read and write.
• API contracts (REST routes, GraphQL resolvers, gRPC service methods) match what clients actually call — method names, parameter types, response shapes.
• Environment variables referenced in code exist in .env.example or config docs.
• Database migrations / schema are in sync with model definitions.

FRONTEND ↔ BACKEND (if both detected):

• API call URLs/endpoints in frontend match backend route definitions.
• Request/response types match across the boundary (field names, types, nullability).
• Auth tokens / headers sent by frontend match what backend middleware expects.
• Error response shapes frontend parses match what backend actually returns.

SERVERLESS / CLOUD FUNCTIONS (if detected):

• Function triggers (HTTP, event, schedule) are correctly wired.
• IAM / security rules match code access patterns (e.g., Firestore rules vs. code paths).
• Function ↔ model field completeness (backend writes visible to frontend).

NAVIGATION / ROUTING (if frontend detected):

• All referenced routes/screens are defined.
• Route parameters match what receiving screens/pages expect.

CONFIG PROPAGATION:

• Admin-configurable or environment-driven values are not hardcoded.
• Feature flags referenced in code are defined in config.

Scope: Full project, but only CRITICAL paths. Depth: Quick checks — flag issues but don't deep-dive every layer.

Flag issues as:

• Critical: Will crash or fail at runtime. Must fix.
• Warning: Inconsistency that may cause bugs under certain conditions.
• Info: Minor issue, not auto-fixed.

============================================================ PHASE 3: FIX (single pass)

Fix all Critical and Warning issues found in Phase 2. For each fix:

1. Apply the fix.
2. Re-run the specific check to confirm.
3. Re-run static analysis for the affected stack to verify no regressions.

Commit all fixes: "fix(audit): cross-layer consistency fixes"

If fixes introduce new issues, fix those too (max 2 rounds).

============================================================ SELF-HEALING VALIDATION (max 3 iterations)

After completing fixes, re-validate your work:

1. Re-run the specific checks that originally found issues.
2. Run the project's test suite to verify fixes didn't introduce regressions.
3. Run build/compile to confirm no breakage.
4. If new issues surfaced from fixes, add them to the fix queue.
5. Repeat the fix-validate cycle up to 3 iterations total.

STOP when:

• Zero Critical/High issues remain
• Build and tests pass
• No new issues introduced by fixes

IF STILL FAILING after 3 iterations:

• Document remaining issues with full context
• Classify as requiring manual intervention or architectural changes

============================================================ OUTPUT

Keep the output concise. This is a gate check, not a deep analysis.

• [Stack]: [clean / N errors fixed]
• Tests: [X/Y passing]

Issues Fixed

[Brief list of what was fixed, with file references]

Remaining Issues

[Info-level items not auto-fixed]

Verdict

PASS: Zero critical and zero warning issues. Safe to proceed. FAIL: N critical / N warning issues remain. List them.

NEXT STEPS:

After PASS:

• "Continue with the next pipeline phase."
• "Run /iterate to build the next feature."

After FAIL:

• "Fix the remaining issues, then run /audit again."
• "Run /analyze for a deeper investigation of the failing areas."

============================================================ SELF-EVOLUTION TELEMETRY

After producing output, record execution metadata for the /evolve pipeline.

Check if a project memory directory exists:

• Look for the project path in ~/.claude/projects/
• If found, append to skill-telemetry.md in that memory directory

Entry format:

### /audit — {{YYYY-MM-DD}}
- Outcome: {{SUCCESS | PARTIAL | FAILED}}
- Self-healed: {{yes — what was healed | no}}
- Iterations used: {{N}} / {{N max}}
- Bottleneck: {{phase that struggled or "none"}}
- Suggestion: {{one-line improvement idea for /evolve, or "none"}}

Only log if the memory directory exists. Skip silently if not found. Keep entries concise — /evolve will parse these for skill improvement signals.
