dx-audit

dx-audit is a skill for Codex from OutlineDriven/outline-driven-development. It costs 35 tokens per session (1,635 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A review of the developer-facing parts of a CLI, software library, or SDK, including its commands, API behavior, errors, public types, setup, and configuration.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to assess a command-line tool, exported API, package, error path, configuration loader, or changed public interface.
Why use it?
It reveals confusing or inconsistent interfaces and explains the underlying causes, without changing the code.

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

dx-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 2d 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.

DX audit

Contract

Field Bound contract
Trigger Audit my CLI, make this CLI agent-friendly, is this API ergonomic, SDK review, library DX, developer onboarding
Authority Read-only. No file, VCS, credential, paid, published, deployed, or remote mutation. Produces recommended fixes as chat output; never applies them.
Side effect Chat output only: severity-tiered findings with root-cause analysis and committable fix recommendations. No repository mutation.
Done Returns bounded, root-caused DX findings for the smallest relevant public surface.

Inputs

Required: the developer-facing surface to audit, a named CLI command, exported API, package, error path, config loader, or the changed public surface from a diff.

Optional: a comparison baseline or prior release contract when the diff changes a public export, signature, or return shape.

Procedure

  1. Lock scope. Choose the narrowest mode: targeted (the default; inspect and report on the named or changed public surface) or exhaustive (only when the user explicitly asks for the whole package or every public surface). Write a one-line scope receipt that names the mode, surfaces, selected audit categories, and exclusions (end-user UI, docs prose, repo architecture, private internals). Done when: a one-line scope receipt names the mode, surfaces, categories, and exclusions.
  2. Identify the public surface. Default to git diff against the repository's normal base, keeping only changed files reachable through a public entry point. With no useful diff, use the command, export, package, error, or config named by the user. Public reachability comes from package.json exports/bin, a command registry, an exported type, a documented config loader, or an observed error path. Do not audit a private helper unless a public caller exposes its behavior. Done when: the public surface is identified from the diff or user-named entry point.
  3. Follow the evidence ladder, then stop. (a) Read local instructions, the relevant manifest, and the diff or named entry point. (b) Trace only direct public dependencies and the nearest tests that establish behavior. (c) For a CLI, use a small safe probe set when useful: --help, --version, one success path, and one invalid-input path. Do not trigger a real mutation merely to test DX. (d) Check a prior release contract only when the diff changes a public export, signature, or return shape. Stop when the behavior is proven, disproven, private, or outside scope. Do not browse general best-practice articles, inventory unrelated apps, or build static repo maps. Done when: behavior is proven, disproven, private, or outside scope with no unnecessary browsing.
  4. Select audit categories candidate-first. Map locked surfaces to these categories; applicability outranks global priority:

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.
