Component audit

A skill for auditing a design system's component library across four dimensions: usage signals, complexity distribution, duplication, and coverage gaps. Produces an inventory with tiered findings and a prioritised action list.

Before you begin: verify references

Confirm that every path in this skill's frontmatter references: exists relative to this SKILL.md. If any is missing, stop: the install is incomplete, usually because a flattening installer (for example npx skills install) dropped the repo-root knowledge-notes/ directory. Tell the user to reinstall by a method in 1-INSTALL.md and run verify-install.sh from the install root. Proceed without the references only if the user explicitly says to, and then say in the output that it was produced without the pack's reference material.

Context

Component libraries accumulate silently. New components arrive through contributions. Old components persist because nobody wants to be the one who removes them. Variants proliferate because each edge case adds one more. The result is a library that grows in mass without growing proportionally in value.

A component audit brings the library back into focus: what is there, what is used, what duplicates what, and what is missing that teams have been building around. It is the maintenance work that makes the next year of development faster.
