# Comprehensive Multi-Domain Audit Orchestrator

**Version:** 2.1 (7-Domain Coverage with S0/S1 Escalation) **Time Savings:** 70%
faster than sequential (175min → 50min) **Stages:** 3 stages with 4+3+1 agent
configuration

**What This Does:** Spawns 7 specialized audit agents in staged waves
(respecting max 4 concurrent limit), with verification checkpoints and S0/S1
escalation, then aggregates findings into a comprehensive report.

---

## Overview

This skill orchestrates a complete codebase audit across all 7 domains:

1. **Code Quality** (`audit-code`) - Code hygiene, types, framework patterns
2. **Security** (`audit-security`) - Auth, input validation, OWASP compliance
3. **Performance** (`audit-performance`) - Load times, queries, caching
4. **Documentation** (`audit-documentation`) - README, API docs, architecture
5. **Refactoring** (`audit-refactoring`) - Technical debt, complexity, DRY
6. **Process/Automation** (`audit-process`) - CI/CD, testing, workflows
7. **Engineering Productivity** (`audit-engineering-productivity`) - DX,
   debugging, offline support

**Output:** Single unified report in
`docs/audits/comprehensive/COMPREHENSIVE_AUDIT_REPORT.md`

## Pre-Flight Validation

**Step 0: Episodic Memory Search (Session #128)**

Before running audits, search for context from past audit sessions:

```javascript
// Search for past comprehensive audits
mcp__plugin_episodic -
  memory_episodic -
  memory__search({
    query: ["comprehensive audit", "findings", "patterns"],
    limit: 5,
  });

// Search for specific domain context
mcp__plugin_episodic -
  memory_episodic -
  memory__search({
    query: ["security audit", "S0", "critical"],
    limit: 5,
  });
```

**Why this matters:**

- Compare against previous audit findings
- Identify recurring issues (may indicate architectural debt)
- Avoid flagging known false positives
- Track improvement/regression trends

**Use findings to:**

1. Note which S0/S1 issues from past audits are still open
2. Identify patterns that keep appearing (root cause needed)
3. Set context for aggregator on known false positives

---

**Step 1: Verify Skills Exist**

Check that all 7 audit skills are available:

```bash
ls -1 .claude/skills/audit-*/SKILL.md | wc -l
# Should return 7
```

If not all present, notify user which audits are missing and ask whether to
proceed with available audits only.

**Step 2: Create Output Directory**

```bash
mkdir -p docs/audits/comprehensive
```

**Step 2.5: Verify Output Directory (CRITICAL)**

Before running ANY agent, verify AUDIT_DIR is valid:

```bash
AUDIT_DIR="docs/audits/comprehensive"
AUDIT_PATH=$(realpath "${AUDIT_DIR}" 2>/dev/null || echo "${AUDIT_DIR}")
# Check for empty, root path, or path traversal attempts
if [ -z "${AUDIT_DIR}" ] || [ "${AUDIT_PATH}" = "/" ] || [[ "${AUDIT_DIR}" == ".."* ]]; then
  echo "FATAL: Invalid or unsafe AUDIT_DIR"
  exit 1
fi
echo "Output directory: ${AUDIT_DIR}"
```

**Why:** Context compaction can cause variable loss. Always verify before agent
launches.

**Step 3: Run Baseline Checks**

Gather current metrics to provide to all audits:

```bash
# Test count
npm test 2>&1 | grep -E "Tests:|passing|failed" | head -5

# Lint status
npm run lint 2>&1 | tail -10

# Pattern compliance
npm run patterns:check 2>&1 | head -20
```

Store results in `docs/audits/comprehensive/baseline.txt` for reference.

**Step 4: Load False Positives**

Read `docs/audits/FALSE_POSITIVES.jsonl` to pass to aggregator (prevents
duplicate flagging of known false positives).

---

## Stage 1: Technical Core Audits (4 Parallel)

**Launch 4 agents IN PARALLEL using Task tool with `run_in_background: true`:**

| Agent | Skill             | Output File                   |
| ----- | ----------------- | ----------------------------- |
| 1A    | audit-code        | `audit-code-report.md`        |
| 1B    | audit-security    | `audit-security-report.md`    |
| 1C    | audit-performance | `audit-performance-report.md` |
| 1D    | audit-refactoring | `audit-refactoring-report.md` |

**Why these 4 first:**

- Core technical analysis
- Security findings needed for S0/S1 escalation check
- Respects max 4 concurrent agents (CLAUDE.md Section 6.3)

**Display Initial Status:**

```
🚀 Comprehensive Audit Started
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Stage 1: Technical Core (4 parallel)
  ⏳ Code Quality
  ⏳ Security
  ⏳ Performance
  ⏳ Refactoring

Stage 2: Supporting (waiting)
  ⏸️ Documentation
  ⏸️ Process/Automation
  ⏸️ Engineering Productivity

Stage 3: Aggregation (waiting)
  ⏸️ Aggregator

Estimated time: 45-50 minutes
(vs 175 minutes if run sequentially - 70% faster!)
```

### Stage 1 Checkpoint (MANDATORY)

Before proceeding to Stage 2, perform these checks:

**1. Verify output files exist:**

```bash
for f in audit-code-report.md audit-security-report.md audit-performance-report.md audit-refactoring-report.md; do
  if [ ! -s "docs/audits/comprehensive/$f" ]; then
    echo "❌ MISSING: $f - re-run agent"
  else
    echo "✅ $f exists"
  fi
done
```

**2. S0/S1 Security Escalation Check:**

```bash
grep -cE "\bS0\b|\bS1\b" docs/audits/comprehensive/audit-security-report.md
```

If S0/S1 findings exist, display:

```
⚠️ SECURITY ESCALATION
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Security audit found critical/high findings.
These should be reviewed before continuing.

S0 Critical: X findings
S1 High: Y findings

Options:
1. Review security findings now (recommended for S0)
2. Continue with remaining audits
3. Stop and address security issues first

What would you like to do?
```

**3. Display Stage 1 Summary:**

```
✅ Stage 1 Complete (Technical Core)
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

  ✅ Code Quality    (X findings)
  ✅ Security        (X findings, Y critical)
  ✅ Performance     (X findings)
  ✅ Refactoring     (X findings)

Proceeding to Stage 2...
```

---

## Stage 2: Supporting Audits (3 Parallel)

**Launch 3 agents IN PARALLEL using Task tool with `run_in_background: true`:**

| Agent | Skill                          | Output File                                |
| ----- | ------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------ |
| 2A    | audit-documentation            | `audit-documentation-report.md`            |
| 2B    | audit-process                  | `audit-process-report.md`                  |
| 2C    | audit-engineering-productivity | `audit-engineering-productivity-report.md` |

**Why these in Stage 2:**

- Supporting audits that can use Stage 1 context
- Lower priority than technical core
- Completes the full 7-domain coverage

### Stage 2 Checkpoint (MANDATORY)

**1. Verify output files exist:**

```bash
for f in audit-documentation-report.md audit-process-report.md audit-engineering-productivity-report.md; do
  if [ ! -s "docs/audits/comprehensive/$f" ]; then
    echo "❌ MISSING: $f - re-run agent"
  else
    echo "✅ $f exists"
  fi
done
```

**2. Display Stage 2 Summary:**

```
✅ Stage 2 Complete (Supporting)
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

  ✅ Documentation         (X findings)
  ✅ Process/Auto          (X findings)
  ✅ Engineering Productivity (X findings)

All 7 audits complete. Proceeding to aggregation...
```

---

## Stage 3: Aggregation Phase

**Launch Aggregator Agent**

Use Task tool to spawn `audit-aggregator` agent:

```javascript
Task({
  subagent_type: "audit-aggregator",
  description: "Aggregate and deduplicate audit results",
  prompt: `
Read all 7 audit reports from docs/audits/comprehensive/

Perform:
1. Deduplicate findings (same file:line across multiple audits → merge)
2. Identify cross-cutting patterns (files appearing in 3+ audits)
3. Priority ranking (severity × cross-domain count × effort)
4. Generate executive summary with top 20 findings

Output to: docs/audits/comprehensive/COMPREHENSIVE_AUDIT_REPORT.md
  `,
});
```

**Expected Output:**

- `docs/audits/comprehensive/COMPREHENSIVE_AUDIT_REPORT.md` (unified report)

**Wait for aggregator to complete** (typically 3-5 minutes)

### Stage 3 Checkpoint (MANDATORY)

After aggregator completes, verify:

```bash
if [ ! -s "docs/audits/comprehensive/COMPREHENSIVE_AUDIT_REPORT.md" ]; then
  echo "❌ Aggregation failed - report not generated"
  echo "Individual reports still available for manual review"
else
  echo "✅ Comprehensive report generated"
fi
```

---

## Final Report Structure

The `COMPREHENSIVE_AUDIT_REPORT.md` should contain:

### Executive Summary

- Total unique findings (after deduplication)
- Severity breakdown (S0: X, S1: Y, S2: Z, S3: W)
- Top 3 cross-domain insights
- Recommended fix order
- Effort estimate (total hours)

### Priority-Ranked Findings (Top 20)

Table format:

| Rank | ID       | Severity | Domains | File:Line  | Description        | Effort |
| ---- | -------- | -------: | ------: | ---------- | ------------------ | -----: |
| 1    | COMP-001 |       S0 |       3 | auth.ts:45 | Missing auth check |     E1 |
| ...  | ...      |      ... |     ... | ...        | ...                |    ... |

### Cross-Domain Insights

Examples:

- "Files X, Y, Z appear in 4+ audits → Comprehensive refactor needed"
- "Security + Performance overlap: 12 findings where fixing one helps both"
- "Documentation gaps align with code complexity hotspots"

### Full Findings (Deduplicated)

Complete table of all findings grouped by severity, with links to original audit
reports.

### Appendix

- Links to individual audit reports
- Baseline metrics snapshot
- False positives excluded (count)

---

## Post-Audit (MANDATORY)

**After aggregation completes, you MUST update tracking:**

### 1. Update AUDIT_TRACKER.md

Add an entry to **each of the 6 category tables** in `docs/AUDIT_TRACKER.md`:

| Date    | Session       | Commits Covered | Files Covered | Findings                     | Reset Threshold |
| ------- | ------------- | --------------- | ------------- | ---------------------------- | --------------- |
| {TODAY} | Comprehensive | Full codebase   | All           | Session #{N} - [report link] | ✅ (all)        |

### 2. Update Threshold Summary Table

In the "Current Thresholds" section, update all 6 categories:

- Set "Last Audit" to today's date with "(Comprehensive)"
- Reset "Commits Since" to 0
- Reset "Files Since" to 0

### 3. Update Multi-AI Thresholds

In the "Multi-AI Audit Thresholds" section:

- Update "Total commits" reset date to today
- Update "Time elapsed" to "0 days (comprehensive audit {TODAY})"

**This step ensures `npm run review:check` correctly shows no triggers after the
audit.**

---

## Triage & Roadmap Integration (MANDATORY)

After TDMS intake completes, triage new items into the roadmap:

### 1. Review New Items

Check the newly added DEBT-XXXX items:

```bash
# View recent additions (last 50 items by ID)
tail -50 docs/technical-debt/MASTER_DEBT.jsonl | jq -r '[.id, .severity, .category, .title[:60]] | @tsv'
```

### 2. Priority Scoring

Beyond S0-S3 severity, consider these factors for prioritization:

| Factor         | Weight | Description                                     |
| -------------- | ------ | ----------------------------------------------- |
| Severity       | 40%    | S0=100, S1=50, S2=20, S3=5                      |
| Cross-domain   | 20%    | Items flagged by multiple audits get +50%       |
| Effort inverse | 20%    | E0=4x, E1=2x, E2=1x, E3=0.5x (quick wins first) |
| Dependency     | 10%    | Blockers for other items get +25%               |
| File hotspot   | 10%    | Files with 3+ findings get +25%                 |

**Priority Score Formula:**

```
score = (severity × 0.4) × (cross_domain_mult × 0.2) × (effort_inv × 0.2) × (dep_mult × 0.1) × (hotspot_mult × 0.1)
```

### 3. Track Assignment

New items are auto-assigned based on category + file patterns:

| Category      | File Pattern            | Track    |
| ------------- | ----------------------- | -------- |
| security      | \*                      | Track-S  |
| performance   | \*                      | Track-P  |
| process       | \*                      | Track-D  |
| refactoring   | \*                      | M2.3-REF |
| documentation | \*                      | M1.5     |
| code-quality  | scripts/, .claude/      | Track-E  |
| code-quality  | .github/                | Track-D  |
| code-quality  | tests/                  | Track-T  |
| code-quality  | functions/              | M2.2     |
| code-quality  | components/, lib/, app/ | M2.1     |

**View current assignments:**

```bash
cat docs/technical-debt/views/unplaced-items.md
```

### 4. Update ROADMAP.md

For S0/S1 items that need immediate attention:

```markdown
## Track-S: Security Technical Debt

- [ ] DEBT-0875: Firebase credentials written to disk (S1) **NEW**
- [ ] DEBT-0876: Missing App Check validation (S1) **NEW**
```

For bulk items by track:

```markdown
- [ ] DEBT-0869 through DEBT-0880: Process automation gaps (S2, bulk)
```

### 5. Consistency Check

Verify all references are valid:

```bash
node scripts/debt/sync-roadmap-refs.js --check-only
```

Reports:

- Orphaned refs (in ROADMAP but not in MASTER_DEBT)
- Unplaced items (in MASTER_DEBT but not in ROADMAP)
- Status mismatches (marked done but not RESOLVED)

### 6. Review Cadence

| Trigger                   | Action                             |
| ------------------------- | ---------------------------------- |
| After comprehensive audit | Full triage of all new items       |
| After single-domain audit | Triage items in that category only |
| Weekly (if no audits)     | Check unplaced-items.md for drift  |
| Before sprint planning    | Review S0/S1 items for inclusion   |

```

---

## Error Handling

**If Individual Audit Fails:**

- Continue with remaining audits in the same stage
- Mark failed audit in status display (❌)
- Note failure in final report
- Suggest running failed audit individually for debugging

**If Aggregator Fails:**

- All individual reports still available
- User can manually review 6 separate reports
- Suggest creating GitHub issue for aggregator failure

**If All Audits Fail:**

- Check baseline environment (tests passing, lint working)
- Check for system issues (disk space, memory)
- Suggest running single audit first to isolate issue

---

## Context Recovery

If context compacts mid-audit, resume from last completed checkpoint:

### Determine Current State

```bash
echo "=== Checking audit progress ==="
ls -la docs/audits/comprehensive/*.md 2>/dev/null | wc -l
```

### Recovery Matrix

| Files Found                 | State              | Resume Action                 |
| --------------------------- | ------------------ | ----------------------------- |
| 0-3 reports                 | Stage 1 incomplete | Re-run missing Stage 1 audits |
| 4 reports                   | Stage 1 complete   | Start Stage 2                 |
| 5 reports                   | Stage 2 incomplete | Re-run missing Stage 2 audit  |
| 6 reports, no COMPREHENSIVE | Stage 2 complete   | Run Stage 3 (aggregator)      |
| COMPREHENSIVE exists        | Complete           | Run post-audit only           |

### Resume Commands

**Stage 1 incomplete:** Re-run only missing audits:

```bash
# Check which are missing
for audit in code security performance refactoring; do
  [ ! -f "docs/audits/comprehensive/audit-${audit}-report.md" ] && echo "Missing: $audit"
done
```

**Stage 2 incomplete:** Run documentation and/or process audits as needed.

**Stage 3:** Run aggregator on existing 6 reports.

/audit-security   (25 min - when you only need security review)
/audit-code       (30 min - when you only need code quality)
```

## Notes

- **Staged Execution:** 3 stages (4+2+1 agents) respects CLAUDE.md max 4
  concurrent limit
- **Time Estimate:** ~45 minutes (vs 150min sequential = 70% savings)
- **S0/S1 Escalation:** Security findings checked after Stage 1 before
  proceeding
- **Checkpoints:** Each stage verifies outputs exist and are non-empty
- **Context Recovery:** Can resume from any checkpoint after context compaction
- **Output Consistency:** All audits use same severity (S0-S3) and effort
  (E0-E3) scales

## Future Enhancements

- [ ] **Incremental Audits:** Only re-run audits for changed domains
- [ ] **Custom Audit Subset:** `--audits code,security` to run subset
- [ ] **Confidence Scoring:** Weight findings by audit confidence levels
- [ ] **Trend Analysis:** Compare against previous comprehensive audits
- [ ] **Auto-Issue Creation:** Create GitHub issues for S0/S1 findings
      automatically
