Activation

This is the description your AI agent reads to decide when to run this skill — the better it matches your request, the more reliably it fires.

Comprehensive quality analysis for WoW addons. Combines security, complexity, deprecation, and dead code analysis into a single audit workflow. Triggers: audit, quality, analysis, review, check, scan.
200 charsno explicit “when” trigger
Advanced

Key capabilities

  • Scan for security vulnerabilities like unsafe eval
  • Analyze code complexity and nesting levels
  • Identify deprecated WoW APIs
  • Detect dead code and orphaned files

How it works

The skill executes specific MCP tools to perform multi-layered static analysis on addon code against security and maintainability standards.

Inputs & outputs

You give it
WoW addon source code
You get back
Audit report with priority-ordered findings

When to use s-audit

  • Scan addon for deprecated APIs
  • Perform security audit for taint risks
  • Analyze code complexity
  • Identify and remove dead code
  • Validate addon against 12.0 standards

Capabilities

  1. Security Analysis — Combat lockdown, secret values, taint, unsafe eval
  2. Complexity Analysis — Deep nesting, long functions, magic numbers, duplicates
  3. Deprecation Scanning — 100+ deprecated APIs with migration paths
  4. Dead Code Detection — Unused functions, orphaned files, dead exports

Workflow

Quick Audit

1. addon.security   → Critical issues (combat, secrets)
2. addon.deprecations (min_severity=error) → Breaking changes
3. Report critical findings

Full Audit

1. addon.security   → All security issues
2. addon.complexity → All maintainability issues
3. addon.deprecations → All deprecated APIs
4. addon.deadcode   → All dead code
5. Comprehensive report with priority order

Interpreting Results

Priority Order

  1. Critical (Fix immediately):

    • Combat lockdown violations (will cause bugs)
    • Secret value leaks (12.0+ breaking)
    • Deprecated APIs with severity: error
  2. High (Fix before release):

    • Taint risks
    • Deprecated APIs with severity: warning
    • Orphaned files
  3. Medium (Fix when convenient):

    • Deep nesting (maintainability)
    • Long functions
    • Magic numbers
  4. Low (Consider fixing):

    • Code duplicates
    • Suspicious dead code

Best Practices

  1. Run before release — Catch breaking changes early
  2. Start with critical — Security and deprecations first
  3. Filter by severity — Use include_suspicious=false for focused results
  4. Check 12.0 readiness — Secret value APIs are breaking changes
  5. Review complexity — High complexity = high bug risk

When not to use it

  • When auditing non-WoW addon code
  • When environment lacks access to addon files

Limitations

  • Limited to static code analysis

How it compares

It automates the detection of WoW-specific deprecations and combat lockdown risks, which manual review might miss.
