Audit Integrity Skill

Enforce output quality, intellectual honesty, and continuous improvement across security audits and code reviews.

When to Use

• Perform security analyses, threat models, code reviews, or quality audits.
• Validate that every finding has verified code evidence and taint flow.
• Prevent the suppression or rationalization of security findings.
• Evaluate draft reports against the quality gate threshold (score ≥ 8/10).
• Record lessons learned and security memories after you complete a scan.

Components

This skill provides 7 modular capabilities in the references/ directory. Load each file when you reach its execution phase:

Component	Reference File	Purpose
Clarification Protocol	references/clarification-protocol.md	Ask a maximum of 2 targeted questions when scope is not clear
Anti-Rationalization Guard	references/anti-rationalization-guard.md	Prohibited rationalizations and mandatory responses for findings
Self-Critique Loop	references/self-critique-loop.md	Mandatory second pass to verify evidence and coverage
Retry Protocol	references/retry-protocol.md	Tool failure and empty search handling: retry once, then document
Non-Negotiable Behaviors	references/non-negotiable-behaviors.md	Mandatory rules: do not fabricate, cite evidence, report gaps
Self-Reflection Quality Gate	references/self-reflection-quality-gate.md	Scoring rubric (1–10 scale) with a minimum threshold of 8
Self-Learning System	references/self-learning-system.md	Templates and rules for lessons and security memories

Execution Flow

Load reference files as you reach each phase:

1. Before analysis: If scope or policy is not clear, read references/clarification-protocol.md. Ask a maximum of 2 targeted questions.
2. During analysis: Follow references/non-negotiable-behaviors.md. At each triage decision, consult references/anti-rationalization-guard.md.
3. On tool or search failure: Follow references/retry-protocol.md. Do not assume code is secure without verification.
4. After initial analysis: Complete a second pass with the checklist in references/self-critique-loop.md. Verify taint traces and manifest coverage.
5. Before delivery: Score the draft report using references/self-reflection-quality-gate.md. All categories must score ≥ 8.
6. Final delivery: Record lessons and memories using references/self-learning-system.md.
