utility-pm-skill-auditor

utility-pm-skill-auditor is a skill for Claude Code from product-on-purpose/pm-skills. It costs 82 tokens per session (1,181 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A repository-wide audit tool for product-management skills and their supporting files. It checks rules across the whole repository and reports issues by severity with a machine-readable status summary.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for a pre-release governance check of a pm-skills repository. It gathers validator results and highlights issues for maintainers to investigate.
Why use it?
It finds cross-file problems that a review of one skill might miss, such as inconsistent counts, missing samples, or disconnected skill definitions. This helps assess repository readiness before a release.

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

utility-pm-skill-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 8d 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.

PM Skill Auditor (Dispatch Skill)

Cross-client dispatch wrapper for the pm-skill-auditor sub-agent. Detects runtime; dispatches to the native sub-agent on Claude Code; reads agents/pm-skill-auditor.md and executes inline on non-Claude clients.

When to Use

  • You need a repo-wide audit pass: all enforcing validators, cross-cutting checks (skill-without-command, sample gaps, family contract orphans, etc.), and aggregate counter re-derivation against declared values in CONTEXT.md + AGENTS.md + README.md
  • You are running on a non-Claude AI client without native pm-skill-auditor sub-agent support
  • You are running on Claude Code and prefer skill-invocation semantics (e.g., for chaining inside a workflow that also uses other dispatch skills)

When NOT to Use

  • You want to review a specific PM artifact (PRD, OKR, persona) -> use utility-pm-critic instead
  • You want to draft a CHANGELOG entry -> use utility-pm-changelog-curator (ships in Phase 4)
  • You want to ship a release -> use utility-pm-release-conductor (ships in Phase 5)
  • You want to FIX issues found in an audit -> the auditor is detection-only; remediation is maintainer judgment or future pm-frontmatter-doctor (v2.17+)
  • You want a deep, single-skill check against the authoring conventions -> use utility-pm-skill-validate. The auditor goes wide across the catalog; it does not go deep on one skill.

Instructions

Runtime detection step. Determine which AI client is invoking this skill.

If you are running in Claude Code with the pm-skills plugin installed

Invoke @agent-pm-skills:pm-skill-auditor on the repo. Pass any scope arguments from $ARGUMENTS (e.g., --scope changed, --since-tag v2.15.0, --severity-floor P1). Return the sub-agent's audit report to the user.

If you are running in any other AI client

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.
