Audits and optimizes the five global Claude layers (User Preferences, Styles, Global Memory, Skills, MCP Connectors) using the Global Layer Scorecard (six dimensions, anchored 1-5 rubrics). Detects eight cross-layer failure modes and produces evolutionary recommendations (Promotion, Demotion, Codification, Skill Extraction). Use when user says "audit my global setup," "optimize my preferences," "review my Claude configuration," "check my cross-project setup," "are my preferences working," "clean up my global memory," or "what should be in my preferences vs my project." Also use when a user has 3+ Projects and wants to improve their shared foundation. Do NOT use for single-Project audits, Project Memory optimization, or full-stack audits (use rootnode-project-audit, rootnode-memory-optimization, or rootnode-full-stack-audit respectively, if available). Opus recommended; non-Opus models may produce less complete analysis.
