FAQPage Schema
How do I automate a code audit to find technical debt in my codebase?

You can identify technical debt by scanning for logic duplication, dead code, stale documentation, and magic numbers. This automates the auditing process and delivers a focused report on issues across specified dimensions and subdirectories.

What is the best way to scan a specific subdirectory for dead code and logic duplication?

The best way to scan a specific subdirectory is to define it in your audit scope. The Skill then analyzes that targeted subdirectory for logic duplication, dead code, stale documentation, and magic numbers.

Can I focus my codebase audit on specific dimensions of software maintenance?

Yes, you can focus your codebase audit on specific dimensions. The Skill allows you to target particular areas, ensuring the automated analysis reports only on the technical debt issues you need to address.

How do I identify magic numbers and stale documentation during a code audit?

You identify magic numbers and stale documentation by running an automated analysis across your codebase. The audit scans the code and flags these specific issues alongside logic duplication and dead code.

Do I need any dependencies to run an automated analysis for tech debt?

No dependencies are required to run an automated analysis for tech debt. The Skill operates independently without external requirements, allowing you to streamline codebase auditing and improve maintainability directly.
