CE Code Quality Auditor

This skill combines the Code Quality Auditor and Anti-Pattern Auditor roles from ADR-030.

Required references

• docs/improvement/test-quality-method/README.md (canonical method + options)
• docs/improvement/test-quality-method/code_quality_auditor.md (code-quality prompt)
• docs/improvement/test-quality-method/anti_pattern_auditor.md (anti-pattern prompt)

Use this skill when

• Reviewing overall source/test quality before cleanup.
• Producing a findings-first anti-pattern report.
• Prioritizing quality issues by risk and blocker level.

Focus option handling

• Option A (Test-Focused): prioritize test anti-pattern analysis; run source-quality checks only when they explain test failures.
• Option B (Code-Focused): run the full code-quality gate pack and dead/private helper audits.
• Option C (Full Cycle): run Option A evidence pass and Option B gate pass, then combine results into one ranked proposal.

Core principles

1. Determinism first: no unsilenced random, time, or network dependencies.
2. Public-contract tests only: private-member access requires explicit allowlist.
3. Assertion strength: favor behavioral assertions over shape/type-only checks.
4. Marker/layer hygiene: test markers and suite placement must match behavior.
5. No production test-helper exports from src/.

Audit workflow

1. Confirm the selected focus option (A, B, or C).
2. Run anti-pattern detection:

python scripts/anti-pattern-analysis/detect_test_anti_patterns.py
python scripts/anti-pattern-analysis/scan_private_usage.py --check
python scripts/quality/check_no_test_helper_exports.py

3. Run source-quality checks:

python scripts/quality/check_import_graph.py
python scripts/quality/check_docstring_coverage.py
python scripts/anti-pattern-analysis/analyze_private_methods.py

4. Validate deprecation compliance:

$env:CE_DEPRECATIONS='error'
pytest tests/unit -m "not viz" -q

5. Classify each finding:

• Severity: blocker/high/medium/low.
• Scope: source/test/docs/process.
• Action: remove/refactor/rewrite/test-add/update-allowlist.

Output contract

Report findings in this order:

1. Blockers (must-fix now).
2. High-risk defects.
3. Medium/low hygiene improvements.

For each finding include:

• file path + line
• violated rule/ADR
• concrete remediation proposal
• selected focus option (A, B, or C) and why the finding is in-scope

Constraints

• Analysis and planning focus; do not silently auto-fix large areas.
• Preserve CE-first boundaries (ADR-001 layering and public API policy).
