Friction Audit

Find every place a flow asks the user to do something the system could do itself, then design the automatic path. The bias: anything the system can do for the user, it should — unless it's destructive, irreversible, or crosses a trust boundary.

Works with any agent. No vendor APIs. Reads the code/flow you point it at.

Supporting files (read when needed):

• friction-taxonomy.md — the six friction classes, the auto-vs-manual rule, the tradeoff prompts
• audit-template.md — the inventory + auto-path report format

Output: {SKILL_OUTPUT_DIR}/friction-audit/ — see ../OUTPUT.md

Step 0 — Scope the flow
