old-project-audit

old-project-audit is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from aka-kika/akakika-skills. It costs 181 tokens per session (1,832 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An audit for an existing project that decides whether to KEEP it, MERGE it with another tool, or ARCHIVE it.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect an old repository, review its purpose and risks, and make a clear decision about its future.
Why use it?
It helps resolve duplicated tools, unsafe leftovers, and projects that no longer earn the space or maintenance they require.

SkillSpector: 1 finding, up to high

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

  • high Tool Misuse · line 130
    Tool parameters are crafted to achieve unintended or unsafe behavior. Parameter abuse can bypass intended safety checks (e.g. shell=True, --force, dangerous glob patterns).
    Fix: Validate all tool parameters against an allowlist. Reject dangerous parameter values (shell=True, --force, -rf /) and use safe defaults.

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

old-project-audit 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 12d 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.

Old Project Audit

An audit for things that already exist. Stale tools rot in a way fresh ones can't — the data model drifts, old scripts keep pointing at live data, and the thing sits in limbo because nobody made the call. This forces the call.

If the thing you're auditing is brand new and not yet built, run it through new-project-gate first. This skill is for things already on disk that may have stopped earning their keep.

Verdict at a glance

Checkpoint 4 failed + unguarded → not KEEP Checkpoint 3 failed → MERGE Checkpoint 1 or 2 failed → ARCHIVE Otherwise → KEEP
Resolve the footgun or archive Two tools, one job — collapse it Stopped earning the slot it occupies Keep as-is, re-audit later

[x] = healthy · [ ] = failed · [~] = unsure / needs the human

How to run it

Walk the six checkpoints in order. For each one:

  1. Concise why — one line on what this checkpoint protects against.
  2. 1-2 line answer — verdict for this project, holding both lenses. If they disagree, say so.
  3. Mark the check[x] [ ] or [~].

Checkpoint 4 (footgun) is non-negotiable. If it fails and is unguarded, the verdict cannot be KEEP — a tool that can silently clobber live data is a liability regardless of how useful it is.

The checkpoints

1. Still solving a real problem Does the original problem still exist, or did the workflow move past it?

  • Agent lens: is anything still calling this, or was the need absorbed elsewhere?
  • Human lens: have I reached for it in the last week or month, or am I keeping it out of sentiment?

2. Earning its keep Use vs maintenance ratio. Cost of the tail it drags.

  • Agent lens: what does it cost to keep legible and running — deps, schema drift, breakage surface?
  • Human lens: is upkeep bigger than value; does it nag when I see it in the folder?

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.
