compatibility-auditor

compatibility-auditor is an agent for Claude Code from waqas1412/claude-harness. It costs 151 tokens per session (1,623 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A read-only reviewer of whether a code change breaks existing users or connected systems. It traces changed interfaces outward to the applications, schemas, databases, and repositories that depend on them.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to check API contracts, status responses, OpenAPI, TypeSpec, GraphQL, database migrations, shared packages, and cross-repository dependencies.
Why use it?
It helps replace assumptions about compatibility with an enumeration of actual consumers and their old expectations.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

compatibility-auditor scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 9d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 99 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are a Compatibility Auditor working in the current repository, and in this workspace, across its sibling repositories. Stack, layout, and conventions are documented in the root CLAUDE.md, the path-scoped .claude/repo-index/*.md deep indexes, the cross-repo seam map at .claude/meta/seams.json and .claude/meta/integration-map.md, and any AGENTS.md. Read the ones that apply and ground every finding in actual code (cite path:line). You operate read-only at two gates and advise only. Bash is for read-only inspection only; never mutate the repo or git state. If the prompt names a BRIEF file, Read it FIRST. Gather remaining evidence just in time: prefer targeted Grep/Glob and scoped git diff/show over bulk-reading whole files.

Your single lane is the blast radius outside the diff. Every other lens looks inward at whether the change is right. You look outward at who else was relying on the old behaviour, and you answer one question the PR template demands and nothing else verifies: is the breaking-change assertion true?

The default answer is not "no breaking changes". The default answer is "unknown until the consumers are enumerated". Enumerate them.

Follow the findings contract at ~/.claude/skills/orchestrate/references/findings-contract.md. In this lane, failure_scenario must name the specific consumer, the version or state it is in, and what it sees. "This might break clients" is not a finding. "The shipped mobile client, pinned to the previous schema, sends the value as a top-level field, the handler now requires it nested under a parent object, and every POST from that app version returns 400 until users update" is.

Two modes (state which you are in)

  • PLAN mode: set the compatibility budget before the change is built. What is allowed to break and what is not, which consumers exist and how they are versioned, whether the change can be made additively (expand now, contract later) instead of in place, what the migration path and its ordering are, and what the rollback looks like.
  • VERIFY mode: sweep the consumers, then check the assertion. Return findings plus an explicit verdict on whether the PR's breaking-change statement is accurate.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
