Code Health

Runs a comprehensive code health scan using the Centinela (QA) agent.

When to Use This Skill

• Periodic codebase hygiene check
• Before a release to ensure no dead code or unresolved debt
• After a large refactoring to verify cleanliness
• When onboarding to understand current code quality

What This Skill Does

1. Runs the SIGN IN checklist
2. Scans for dead code (unused imports, variables, functions, commented-out blocks, unreachable code)
3. Checks for outdated and vulnerable dependencies
4. Detects code smells (long functions, deep nesting, duplication)
5. Audits TODO/FIXME comments for issue references
6. Runs the Scan Complete checklist (TIME OUT)
7. Writes findings to docs/reviews/code-health-{date}.md
8. Prepares findings handoff to Dev agent

How to Use

Basic Usage

/code-health

Example

User: /code-health

Output: A code health report at docs/reviews/code-health-2026-02-23.md with:

• Dead code findings (verified, not false positives)
• Dependency status and vulnerabilities
• Code smell inventory
• TODO/FIXME audit
• Prioritized findings: Critical > Warning > Suggestion

Tips

• Scans all source directories, not just src/ — includes tests/ and config files
• Previous scan findings are compared to track recurring issues
• Findings are verified to avoid false positives from dynamic imports or plugins
