Pre-production audit that scans a codebase for security, database, deployment, code quality, AI/LLM, dependency, frontend, and observability issues. Intercepts deploy commands and blocks until critical items pass. Stack-agnostic. Use for "run ship gate", "am I ready to ship", "pre-launch audit", "can I deploy", "push to production", "go live checklist", "preflight check". Not for CI/CD setup or infra provisioning.
