Code Audit Skill

Purpose

Perform a thorough, language-agnostic audit of a codebase or subset of files, producing a structured report with findings ranked by severity. Deliver the report as a Markdown file at the project root following the template in references/report-template.md.

Effort Level

Read every line of in-scope code. Do not skim, sample, or rely on heuristics to skip files. Trace data flows from external inputs through processing layers to outputs and storage. Follow call chains across module boundaries to detect issues that only manifest through component interaction. When the scope is too large for a single pass, split work across parallel subagents (see Step 4 for partitioning strategy).

Workflow

Step 1 — Resolve Scope

Determine the audit scope from the user's prompt. The user may specify:
