Audit codebases for quality, consistency, and broken patterns — use for pre-release or tech debt review.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Systematic Audit Process Load `skills/blocks/engineering-method-selection.md` from the installed plugin and apply only the methods relevant to this task. Preserve this entry point's execution contract and output format. Read referenced skills as instructions; do not invoke the current command recursively or add provider calls from a seat. ## Overview Comprehensive, methodical auditing to find issues, inconsistencies, and broken features across a codebase. **Core principle:** Define scope → Create checklist → Execute systematically → Report findings → Prioritize fixes. For architecture simplification, load `skills/blocks/architecture-simplification.md`. Pin the revision, inspect recent churn and representative callers, then apply the deletion test. Do not recommend removing a small wrapper when it centralizes a security, cleanup, precedence, or failure invariant. A `simplify` verdict needs source evidence, a concrete caller, and migration and rollback steps. --- ## When to Use **Use this skill when user wants to:** - Audit entire application for issues - Find all instances of a problem pattern - Check for broken features systematically - Comprehensive quality verification …

How to install
mdr add nyldn/claude-octopus/skill-audit@sha256:987053d7d00bbc95The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260907.4febbb1, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
