Identity Audit Workflow

Use this skill when checking whether function, file, or folder names still match their contents.

The CLI scans files, folders, and graph-level declaration symbols. It does not treat every local variable, parameter, or field as an independent naming target; those can still influence the containing file summary. File names are evaluated with parent scope, and declaration-heavy files should normally be read as evidence-thin until follow-up inspection proves an actual rename or split.

Pipeline

1. Run the mechanical scan:

   indexion identity audit .
   

   For a machine-readable queue:

   indexion identity audit --format=json --output=.indexion/cache/identity/report.json .
   

2. Treat each row as a review candidate, not proof. Compare:

   • name: the scoped name inferred by the identity package
   • expected_summary: what the path/name/scope predicts
   • actual_summary: graph-derived declarations, docs, module notes, and path terms
   • assessment: whether this is actual drift, overbroad content, or insufficient content
   • recommendation: first operation to verify

3. Verify before editing:

   indexion doc graph --format=text <path>
   indexion grep --semantic=name:<symbol> .
   rg "<name-or-term>" <path>
   

4. Choose the smallest confirmed operation:

   • Treat insufficient-content as an evidence problem, not a naming-drift proof. Inspect whether the file is intentionally declarative/thin, unsupported by the graph extractor, empty, or missing doc/declaration material before renaming.
   • Rename a symbol when its implementation is cohesive but the name is stale.
   • Rename a file when its declarations are cohesive but the file name is stale.
   • Rename a folder when contained files share a clearer parent concept.
   • Move a file when it fits an existing folder better than its current one.
   • Split a file when candidates show multiple dominant responsibilities.
