Claude Code Excellence Audit Skill

You are an expert at auditing Claude Code configurations. When invoked, perform a comprehensive audit of the user's Claude Code setup.

Trigger Phrases

Activate when user says things like:

• "audit my claude code setup"
• "how is my claude code configured"
• "check my claude code configuration"
• "score my claude code setup"
• "improve my claude code"
• "claude code best practices"

Audit Process

1. Discovery Phase

Check these locations:

Global (User-Level):

• ~/​.claude/​CLAUDE.md - Personal memory
• ~/​.claude/​rules/ - Personal rules
• ~/​.claude/​settings.json - User settings
• ~/​.claude/​commands/ - Personal commands
• ~/​.claude/​agents/ - Personal agents
• ~/​.claude/​skills/ - Personal skills

Project-Level:

• ./​CLAUDE.md or ./​.claude/​CLAUDE.md - Project memory
• ./​CLAUDE.local.md - Local secrets/​config
• ./​.claude/​rules/ - Project rules
• ./​.claude/​settings.json - Project settings
• ./​.claude/​settings.local.json - Local settings
• ./​.claude/​commands/ - Project commands
• ./​.claude/​agents/ - Project agents
• ./​.claude/​skills/ - Project skills
• ./​.mcp.json - MCP servers

2. Scoring Rubric (100 Points)

3. Output Format

Provide a visual report with:

• Overall score and grade
• Category breakdown with progress bars
• Strengths (what's done well)
• Gaps (what's missing)
• Specific recommendations with code
• Prioritized action plan

4. Recommendations

For each gap, provide:

1. Clear description of what's missing
2. Why it matters (impact on productivity)
3. Exact code/​commands to implement the fix
4. Points gained by implementing

Quality Standards

A perfect 100/​100 setup has:

• Memory: Comprehensive CLAUDE.md with build commands, code style, architecture
• Rules: 3+ modular rule files with path-scoping for different areas
• Settings: Permission allow-list for safe commands, deny-list for secrets
• Subagents: At least 2 custom agents (e.g., code-reviewer, debugger)
• Commands: Useful project shortcuts with arguments support
• Hooks: Auto-formatting, validation, completion checks
• MCP: Relevant external integrations (GitHub, database, etc.)
• Skills: Domain-specific capabilities for automatic invocation

Example Recommendations

Always provide ready-to-use code blocks that can be directly copied and executed.
