Project Health Audit

\n

Comprehensive project-wide health assessment using 5 parallel specialist subagents.

\n

Usage

\n
/phx:audit              # Full audit (default)\n/phx:audit --quick      # 2-3 minute pulse check\n/phx:audit --focus=security   # Deep dive single area\n/phx:audit --focus=performance\n/phx:audit --since abc123   # Incremental audit since commit\n/phx:audit --since HEAD~10  # Audit last 10 commits\n
\n

When to Use

\n\n

Iron Laws

\n
    \n
  1. Wait for ALL agents before synthesizing — Partial results create misleading health scores because cross-category correlations get missed
    2. \n
  2. Scope agent prompts to specific directories — Vague prompts like \"analyze the codebase\" produce generic findings that waste tokens and miss real issues
    3. \n
  3. Never compare scores across projects — Scoring methodology depends on project size and maturity; only track trends within the same project
    4. \n
  4. Quick mode before full mode — Run --quick first to catch compile/test failures before spending tokens on 5 parallel agents
    5. \n
\n

Subagent Architecture

\n

Spawn 5 specialists in parallel using Agent tool. Three route to plugin\nspecialists with a declared model; the two categories without a specialist use\ngeneral-purpose pinned to model: \"sonnet\" — unpinned, they inherit the\nsession model (Opus by default):

\n

Workflow

\n

Step 1: Create Task List and Spawn All 5 Auditors (Parallel)

\n

If TaskCreate is in your tool list, create Claude Code tasks for\nprogress visibility (Sonnet 5+ and Opus 4.8+ omit it unless\nCLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_TODO_TOOLS=1; never ToolSearch for it — skip this block):

\n
For each auditor:\n  TaskCreate({subject: \"{Area} audit\", activeForm: \"Auditing {area}...\"})\n  TaskUpdate({taskId, status: \"in_progress\"})\n
\n

Then spawn all 5 agents with Agent tool (parallel). Route to declared-model\nspecialists where they exist, keep general-purpose only where no specialist\ncovers the audit category:

\n
Agent(subagent_type: \"phx:phoenix-patterns-analyst\", prompt: \"Architecture audit: analyze module structure, context boundaries, coupling, cohesion. Write findings to .claude/audit/reports/arch-review.md\", run_in_background: true)\nAgent(subagent_type: \"general-purpose\", model: \"sonnet\", prompt: \"Performance audit: N+1 queries, missing indexes, bottlenecks, scalability. Write findings to .claude/audit/reports/perf-audit.md\", run_in_background: true)\nAgent(subagent_type: \"phx:security-analyzer\",        prompt: \"Security audit: OWASP scan, auth patterns, secret leakage. Write findings to .claude/audit/reports/security-audit.md\", run_in_background: true)\nAgent(subagent_type: \"phx:testing-reviewer\",         prompt: \"Test health audit: coverage, quality, flakes. Write findings to .claude/audit/reports/test-audit.md\", run_in_background: true)\nAgent(subagent_type: \"general-purpose\", model: \"sonnet\", prompt: \"Dependency audit: vulnerabilities, outdated, unused. Write findings to .claude/audit/reports/deps-audit.md\", run_in_background: true)\n
\n

Why specialist routing matters: a general-purpose subagent without\nmodel: inherits the session model — Opus on every plan since CC 2.1.280.\nPlugin specialists declare their own model in frontmatter, and the two\ngeneral-purpose tracks pin model: \"sonnet\", so no audit track runs on Opus.

\n

Agent prompts must be FOCUSED. Scope each prompt to the\nrelevant directories and patterns. Do NOT give vague prompts\nlike \"analyze the codebase.\"

\n

Output efficiency: Tell each agent: \"Report ONLY issues found.\nDo NOT list clean checks, passing categories, or 'What's Good'.\nOne summary line per clean area suffices.\"

\n

Step 2: Collect Results

\n

Wait for ALL auditors to complete — one completion notification per agent\nspawned. If you created tasks, mark each completed as it finishes. NEVER\nproceed while any auditor is still running.

\n

Read reports from .claude/audit/reports/.

\n

Rate-limit circuit breaker: if 2+ auditors return empty results or\nrate-limit/API errors, STOP spawning. Synthesize from the reports that\nexist, mark missing categories as \"not audited (rate limit)\", and tell\nthe user to re-run /phx:audit after the limit resets. Never leave the\nuser typing \"continue\" against dead agents.

\n

Step 3: Compress Findings

\n

After all 5 auditors complete, spawn context-supervisor:

\n
Agent(subagent_type: \"phx:context-supervisor\", prompt: \"\"\"\nCompress audit findings.\nInput: .claude/audit/reports/\nOutput: .claude/audit/summaries/\nPriority: Health scores per category, critical findings\nonly, cross-category correlations, deduplicate findings\nfound by 2+ agents.\n\"\"\")\n
\n

Read .claude/audit/summaries/consolidated.md for synthesis.

\n

Step 4: Calculate Health Score

\n

Each category scores 0-100. See ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/references/scoring-methodology.md.

\n

Step 5: Generate Report

\n

Write to .claude/audit/summaries/project-health-{date}.md.

\n

Output Format

\n

Report includes: Executive summary with health score (A-F, numeric/100),\nper-category score table (Architecture, Performance, Security, Tests, Dependencies),\ncritical issues, top recommendations, and action plan (Immediate/Short-term/Long-term).

\n

Quick Mode (--quick)

\n

Only run essential checks (~2-3 minutes):

\n

Run mix compile --warnings-as-errors, then mix hex.audit && mix deps.audit,\nthen mix xref graph --format stats, then mix test --trace 2>&1 | tail -20.

\n

Skip: Full security scan, N+1 analysis, test quality metrics, architecture deep dive.

\n

Focus Mode (--focus=area)

\n

Deep dive single area with full specialist resources:

teststesting-reviewerCoverage by context, quality metrics
depsgeneral-purposeLicense audit, maintenance status (per-package hex-deps-triager only)
\n

Incremental Mode (--since <commit>)

\n

Analyze only changes since a specific commit. Useful for pre-merge checks:

\n

Run git diff --name-only <commit>...HEAD to identify changed files, then run targeted audits on changed files only (skips full project scan).

\n

Combines with other flags: /phx:audit --since HEAD~5 --focus=security
