audit

Run a comprehensive project health audit. Create a GitHub issue with all findings. If $ARGUMENTS contains --fix, also fix the issues and open a PR.

Phase 1 — Inventory

Read .claude/config.yaml for project metadata (language, memory stack, MCPs). This determines which checks apply.

Scan these directories and build a file inventory:

Directory	What to check
.claude/hooks/	All hook scripts
.claude/skills/	All SKILL.md files
.claude/scripts/	All lifecycle scripts
.claude/rules/	All rule .md files
.claude/docs/	ADRs, conventions
.claude/memory/	MEMORY.md index
.github/workflows/	CI/CD configs
.github/hooks/	Git hooks

Phase 2 — Checks

Run each check category. Track findings as [PASS], [WARN], or [FAIL].

2.1 Hook integrity

For every file in .claude/hooks/:

1. Executable bit — stat -c '%a' <file> must show execute permission
2. Hook protocol — must output JSON to stdout and exit 0 (never exit 1 to block). Search for:
   • exit 1 that isn't inside a trap or error path before JSON parsing → [FAIL]
   • >&2 used for block output instead of stdout → [FAIL]
   • Missing exit 0 at end of file → [WARN]
3. JSON parsing — must use python3 (not jq) for portability. grep -l 'jq ' *.sh → [FAIL]
4. Stdin reading — must read $CLAUDE_TOOL_USE_STDIN or stdin JSON. Check the INPUT= line exists.
5. Referenced in settings.json — every hook file should appear in .claude/settings.json. Orphaned hooks → [WARN]

2.2 Script integrity

For every file in .claude/scripts/:

1. Executable bit — must be executable
2. Shebang — first line must be #!/usr/bin/env bash or #!/usr/bin/env python3
3. set -euo pipefail — bash scripts must have it
4. Referenced in docs — check .claude/scripts/README.md and .claude/project-init.md mention the script. Undocumented scripts → [WARN]

2.3 Git hooks

For every file in .github/hooks/:

1. Executable bit — must be executable
2. Shebang — must have one

2.4 Skill and command consistency

For every SKILL.md in .claude/skills/*/:

1. Required frontmatter — name and description must exist
2. Listed in INDEX.md — .claude/skills/INDEX.md should reference every skill. Missing → [WARN]
3. Listed in project-init.md — .claude/project-init.md Tools table should list it. Missing → [WARN]

2.5 Settings.json coherence

1. Every hook file referenced has a corresponding file in .claude/hooks/. Dead references → [FAIL]
2. Hook files referenced in settings.json must exist on disk with the correct snake_case names

2.6 Documentation cross-references

1. project-init.md — every script, skill, command, hook, and agent listed in the Tools table must exist on disk
2. scripts/README.md — every script in the directory should be documented
3. rules/hooks.md (if present) — every hook listed must exist; every existing hook must be listed
4. Commit format — verify that project-init.md, copilot-instructions.md, conventions.md, and config.yaml all agree on the commit/PR format (type(KEY-N):, ADR-006)

2.7 CI workflow validation

1. Language match — CI commands must match the project language from config.yaml:
   • Python: uv run ruff, uv run pytest
   • Node: bun run lint, bun test
   • Go: golangci-lint run, go test
   • None: no lint/test steps expected
2. PR validation workflow — if validate-pr.yml exists, check its title regex matches the format in project-init.md

2.8 Memory and vault

1. MEMORY.md exists and is a valid index (links to files that exist)
2. Broken links — any [text](file.md) in MEMORY.md where file.md doesn't exist → [FAIL]

Phase 3 — Report

Compile findings into a structured report:

## Project Audit Report

**Project:** <name from config.yaml>
**Date:** <today>
**Language:** <language>

### Summary
- X checks passed
- Y warnings
- Z failures

### Failures
1. <file>: <what's wrong> — <how to fix>

### Warnings
1. <file>: <what's wrong>

### All Checks
<full checklist with [PASS]/[WARN]/[FAIL] markers>

Phase 4 — Create issue

Create a GitHub issue using the project's lifecycle script:

.claude/scripts/create_issue.sh chore "Project audit findings" \
  --priority medium \
  --area "tooling" \
  --size M \
  --acceptance "All [FAIL] items resolved, all [WARN] items reviewed"

Paste the full report as a comment on the issue.

Phase 5 — Fix (only if --fix)

If $ARGUMENTS contains --fix:

1. Start work on the issue: .claude/scripts/start_issue.sh <n> fix
2. Fix all [FAIL] items. Review [WARN] items and fix where appropriate.
3. Run lint and tests after fixes.
4. Push and finish: .claude/scripts/finish_pr.sh <n>

If --fix is not specified, stop after Phase 4 and report the issue number.
