Config audit

Config Audit

Produce a complete, data-backed audit of how the user's ~/.claude configuration has grown, what overlaps, and what is risky — all read through the Agent Monitor dashboard at http://localhost:4820.

Input

The user provides: $ARGUMENTS

This may be:

• empty or "full" — audit every surface (default).
• "skills" / "agents" / "commands" / "hooks" / "settings" — scope the audit to one surface only.
• a project path passed as ?cwd= — to audit a project other than the dashboard server's own working directory.

Data Sources

Endpoint	Returns
GET /api/cc-config/overview	roots + counts for every surface, split {user,project} where applicable (skills, agents, commands, outputStyles, plugins, mcpServers, hooks, memory, settingsFiles)
GET /api/cc-config/skills	{ items:[{ scope, name, file, size, mtime, frontmatter, preview }] }
GET /api/cc-config/agents	{ items:[{ scope, name, file, size, mtime, frontmatter, preview }] }
GET /api/cc-config/commands	{ items:[{ scope, name, file, size, mtime, frontmatter, preview }] }
GET /api/cc-config/hooks	{ items:[{ scope, file, exists, hooks:{ <Event>:[{matcher,type,command,timeout}] } }] }
GET /api/cc-config/settings	{ items:[{ scope, file, exists, data(redacted), raw_size }] }

Report Sections

1. Surface inventory (user vs project)

From /overview counts, print a table: one row per surface with user, project, and total columns. Cover skills, agents, commands, output-styles, plugins (with enabled/disabled), marketplaces, MCP servers, hooks (user/project/project-local), memory, and settings files. Echo the resolved roots so the user knows which claudeHome/project was inspected.

2. Duplicate & overlapping skills + agents

Fetch /skills and /agents. Detect:

• Name collisions across scope — same name at both user and project scope (project shadows user). List both file paths.
• Near-duplicates — entries whose frontmatter.description / preview describe the same job. Group them and recommend keeping one.

3. Hooks that run shell commands

Flatten /hooks to (scope, file, Event, matcher, type, command, timeout). Flag every type: "command" entry. Within those, escalate ones that contain network egress (curl, wget, http, nc) or run unbounded with no timeout. Print the raw command so the user can review it.

4. Read-only vs mutable surfaces

State which surfaces the Config Explorer can mutate (skills, agents, commands, output-styles, user/project CLAUDE.md, and per-project auto-memory files via PUT/DELETE /api/cc-config/file) versus those that are read-only by design (plugins, MCP servers, settings.json and its in-file hooks — written concurrently by the running CLI). Direct cleanup suggestions only at mutable surfaces; for read-only ones, name the source file to edit by hand.

Output

• A one-line verdict first: CLEAN / SPRAWL DETECTED / RISKY HOOKS.
• Section 1 as a Markdown table (Surface | User | Project | Total).
• Section 2 as grouped lists with file paths.
• Section 3 as a table (Scope | Event | Matcher | Command | Risk).
• Sizes in KB; any cost in USD to 4 decimals; use ▲/▼ for scope deltas.
• Cite only fields the API returned — never fabricate counts or commands.
• If the dashboard is unreachable at http://localhost:4820, say so and tell the user to start it with npm start from the repo root.
