type:audit

Periodic evidence-based self-audit of the whole agent system — the orchestrator, its docs/SSOTs, rules, memory, subagents, tools, infra and the work it claims to have delivered — followed by immediate cheap-safe fixes and a ranked backlog. Use when the user says 'аудит системы', 'проверь себя', 'самопроверка', 'system audit', 'audit yourself', 'health check', 'что у нас накопилось', 'система раздулась', 'проверь что работает а что на бумаге', 'gap-анализ', 'что удалить', or on cadence triggers (every ~10 sessions, before a milestone, after a big refactor, when memory hits its caps, when onboarding this repo to a new agent). Seven lenses: delivery reality · knowledge drift · operational layer · layer telemetry (did it ever fire) · tools & infra · domain gaps · anti-bloat subtraction. Not for reviewing a single diff (use a diff-review pass) and not for probing a running product (use /memory-kit:qa-sweep).

From the source SKILL.md

An agent system accretes. Good patterns and bad ones, dead rules nobody reads, facts restated in five places with three of them stale, tools that only ran once. This skill is the periodic sweep that keeps it evolving without inflating: it measures which layers actually fire, deletes what doesn't, and reports findings that carry evidence rather than impressions.

What this skill does

System Audit is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the code-quality sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/system-audit/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.

When to invoke it: Use when the user says 'аудит системы', 'проверь себя', 'самопроверка', 'system audit', 'audit yourself', 'health check', 'что у нас накопилось', 'система раздулась', 'проверь что работает а что на бумаге', 'gap-анализ', 'что удалить', or on cadence triggers (every ~10 sessions, before a milestone, after a big refactor, when memory hits its caps, when onboarding this repo to a new agent). Seven lenses: delivery reality · knowledge drift · operational layer · layer telemetry (did it ever fire) · tools & infra · domain gaps · anti-bloat subtraction.

Who uses this skill

The System Audit Claude Code skill is built for software engineers, backend developers, full-stack teams, and technical leads building and maintaining production systems.
