deep-codebase-audit SKILL.md skillA
deep-codebase-audit from kambleakash0/agent-skills is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add kambleakash0/agent-skills/deep-codebase-audit@v2.0.0Pins v2.0.0 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Find deepening opportunities in a codebase, surfacing architectural friction and proposing refactors that turn shallow modules into deep ones. Use when the user wants to improve architecture, make a codebase more testable, consolidate tightly-coupled modules, or make it safer for AI agents to navigate and change.
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
# Deep Codebase Audit Surface architectural friction and propose **deepening opportunities** — refactors that turn shallow modules into deep ones. The aim is testability, AI-navigability, and leverage. References for this skill are in the `references/` folder: - [GLOSSARY.md](references/GLOSSARY.md) — vocabulary to use in every suggestion - [DEPTH-GUIDE.md](references/DEPTH-GUIDE.md) — how to classify dependencies and test across seams - [INTERFACES.md](references/INTERFACES.md) — how to explore alternative interfaces ## When to Use Use this skill when: - The user says the codebase feels messy, hard to change, or "not ready for AI". - You want to improve testability and make future TDD or autonomous agent work more effective. - You're about to invest heavily in AI-driven changes and want to reduce risk first. Do **not** use this skill when the user just wants to ship a small feature — use `/incremental-tdd` instead. ## Glossary Use these terms exactly in every suggestion. Consistent language is the point — don't drift into "component," "service," "API," or "boundary." Full definitions in [GLOSSARY.md](references/GLOSSARY.md). …

How to install
mdr add kambleakash0/agent-skills/deep-codebase-audit@sha256:0a4c1f6f19dd23f9The line at the top of this page pins the label v2.0.0, 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.
