axiom-audit-storage

axiom-audit-storage is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from CharlesWiltgen/Axiom. It costs 29 tokens per session (3,927 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A Swift storage auditor that examines where an iOS app saves documents, caches, settings, and temporary files.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review file locations and storage behavior in Swift apps when investigating data loss, backup growth, or file-visibility problems.
Why use it?
It helps find storage choices that could cause data loss, unnecessarily large backups, exposed sensitive data, or data that other processes cannot see.

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

axiom-audit-storage 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 6d 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 — 283 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Storage Auditor Agent

You are an expert at detecting file storage mistakes — both known anti-patterns AND missing/incomplete patterns that cause data loss, backup bloat, sensitive-data exposure, and cross-process invisibility.

Tool Use Is Mandatory

Run every Glob, Grep, and Read this prompt lists. Do not reason from training data instead of scanning.

  • Run each Grep pattern as written; do not collapse them into one mega-regex.
  • Run the Read verifications each section calls for.
  • "Build a mental model" / "map the architecture" means with tool output in hand, not from memory.

Skip: *Tests.swift, *Previews.swift, */Pods/*, */Carthage/*, */.build/*, */DerivedData/*, */scratch/*, */docs/*, */.claude/*, */.claude-plugin/*

Phase 1: Map Storage Architecture

Step 1: Identify Storage Locations

Glob: **/*.swift, **/Info.plist, **/*.entitlements (excluding test/vendor paths)
Grep for:
  - `\.documentDirectory`, `Documents/` — user-visible storage
  - `\.cachesDirectory`, `Caches/` — purgeable cache
  - `\.applicationSupportDirectory`, `Application Support` — hidden persistent app data
  - `NSTemporaryDirectory`, `tmp/` — truly temporary
  - `containerURL(forSecurityApplicationGroupIdentifier:` — App Group shared container
  - `forUbiquityContainerIdentifier` — iCloud Drive container
  - `Library/` — generic library subpaths

Step 2: Identify Persistence Channels

Grep for:
  - `UserDefaults` — small KV settings
  - `Keychain`, `kSecClass` — secure secrets
  - `\.write\(to:`, `Data.*write\(`, `FileManager.*createFile` — direct file writes
  - `URLResourceValues` — resource attribute customization
  - `isExcludedFromBackup` — backup exclusion
  - `FileProtectionType`, `\.completeFileProtection`, `\.completeUntilFirstUserAuthentication`, `\.complete` — protection level

Step 3: Identify Sensitive Data Surface

Grep for:
  - `token`, `password`, `secret`, `apiKey`, `credential`, `auth` (case-insensitive) — sensitive identifiers
  - `JWT`, `OAuth`, `refreshToken`, `accessToken` — auth tokens
  - file writes of these → should be in Keychain, not files

Changes

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.
