audit-plugin

audit-plugin is a command for Claude Code from iliaal/whetstone. It costs 25 tokens per session (5,449 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command for examining all skills, agents, and commands in a plugin for quality problems.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for running broad or targeted audits, checking earlier audit decisions, and reviewing a component again after it has failed during use.
Why use it?
It finds inconsistent instructions, missing guidance, duplicated content, and wording that wastes the agent's context or causes confusion.

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

audit-plugin 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 25d 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.

Audit plugin content

Deep analysis of all skills, agents, and commands in the whetstone plugin. Surfaces quality issues that degrade skill effectiveness, waste tokens, or confuse the model.

Scope

PLUGIN_DIR=plugins/whetstone
SYNC_LOG=docs/audit/audit-log.md

If $ARGUMENTS specifies a name or category, narrow to that. Otherwise audit everything. Normalize component names to the ia- prefix before using them as --skill/--component filters (e.g. debugging → ia-debugging). Exit code 2 from those commands means the filter matched nothing — almost always a missing prefix — not a validation failure; re-run with the prefixed name.

Reactive mode: If invoked after a skill/agent failed during use, detect the failing component from conversation context and focus the audit on that component first.

Phase 0: Pre-flight — read prior decision log

Read $SYNC_LOG in full before any checks run. Build an in-memory set of already-evaluated findings keyed by (component, issue-signature) across every run entry. Use it as a filter during Phase 3 presentation:

  • Previously applied, exact match — drop silently.
  • Previously rejected, exact match — drop silently unless new evidence contradicts the prior reason; if so, surface with a RE-EVALUATE flag and quote the prior rejection reason.
  • Previously deferred, exact match — surface with a PREVIOUSLY DEFERRED tag and the original defer reason so the user can judge whether conditions have changed.
  • No match — present normally.

While reading, also detect prune triggers and emit a one-line reminder at the end of Phase 3 if any fire:

  • Any entry older than 30 days.
  • Any entry referencing a component that no longer exists under $PLUGIN_DIR.
  • Any entry whose reasoning has been superseded by a feedback-memory rule.

Reminder format: "Sync log has N prune candidates — run /prune-sync-log."

If $SYNC_LOG doesn't exist, note it and continue — the post-apply step in Phase 5b creates 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.
