What problem does it solve?
Static build verification loops (linting, type checking, static application security testing, and unit tests) cannot detect defects that only manifest under real runtime conditions with live authentication providers, databases, content delivery networks, and browsers, leading to costly post-deployment failures and user impact.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Parallel Scope-Based Scanning: Spawns one sub-agent per non-overlapping system scope (backend, frontend, infrastructure, cross-cutting) derived dynamically from the project's Defect Prevention Catalog, with no hardcoded concurrency limits.
- Feature-Scope Filtering: Automatically excludes irrelevant defect checks based on the feature's defined scope (frontend-only, backend-only, integration, full-stack) to reduce unnecessary scan overhead.
- Integrated Governance Workflow: Consolidates findings into a severity-ordered report, requires user approval before fixes are applied, and saves a structured report artifact to the feature's review directory for auditability.
Quick Start
Invoke the factory-preventive-sweep skill to scan your recently deployed feature for runtime defects that were not caught by static build gates, and review the consolidated severity-ordered report before applying fixes.
