Cross-layer coherence checks can be automated by running an audit immediately after layer merges to detect cross-codebase quality issues. This generates a COHERENCE-REPORT to identify DRY violations, convention drift, and security gaps before they compound.

Cross-codebase coherence auditing is the process of scanning layer diffs for consistency issues across multi-layer software projects. It targets DRY violations, orphaned code, convention drift, and security gaps to gate QA until issues are resolved.

You need to run a coherence audit immediately after merging a layer and re-invoke it at the start of each new layer. This enforces ongoing quality by catching cross-session DRY violations and security gaps before they compound.

Generate a COHERENCE-REPORT by running the coherence audit after a layer merge. This triggers downstream QA routing through the coherence screener and fixer, gating QA until cross-codebase quality issues are resolved.

Yes, coherence auditing requires integration with the autoboard:audit workflow. It also relies on dimension-based analysis and COHERENCE-REPORT processing to enforce multi-layer consistency checks across codebases.

The best way to detect convention drift is automating dimension-based coherence auditing after layer merges. This approach applies consistency checks to layer diffs, catching convention drift alongside orphaned code and DRY violations.
