Codebase Auditor
Comprehensive codebase audits using modern software engineering standards with actionable remediation plans.
When to Use
Audit codebase for quality, security, maintainability
Assess technical debt and estimate remediation
Prepare production readiness report
Evaluate legacy codebase for modernization
Set up quality gates for CI/CD pipelines
Configure incremental audits for large codebases (>100k LOC)
Track audit history and trends over time
Trigger Phrases
"Audit this codebase" / "Run a code audit"
"Security scan" / "Check for vulnerabilities"
"Assess technical debt" / "How much tech debt?"
"Production readiness review"
"Set up quality gates"
"DORA metrics" / "Deployment health"
Audit Phases
Phase 1: Initial Assessment
Project discovery (tech stack, frameworks, tools)
Quick health check (LOC, docs, git practices)
Red flag detection (secrets, massive files)
Phase 2: Deep Analysis
Load on demand based on Phase 1 findings.
Phase 3: Report Generation
Comprehensive report with scores and priorities.
Phase 4: Remediation Planning
Prioritized action plan with effort estimates.
