Lifecycle auditing examines bootstrap initialization order, graceful shutdown handling, resource cleanup, signal processing, and Kubernetes probes. The auditor analyzes your running application and codebase to generate structured findings with severity levels, locations, and remediation effort estimates.

Graceful shutdown validation verifies that your application properly handles SIGTERM and SIGINT signals, cleans up resources on exit, and propagates signals correctly. It identifies missing handlers and improper cleanup that could cause data loss or orphaned processes in containerized environments.

Yes. The auditor validates that your application exposes proper liveness and readiness probe endpoints required by Kubernetes. It detects missing or misconfigured probes that prevent correct pod orchestration and traffic routing.

Bootstrap order auditing identifies initialization sequence problems—such as dependencies started before their prerequisites or services attempted before configuration loads. These issues cause startup failures or race conditions in containerized workers.

The auditor generates a JSON findings payload containing discovered lifecycle deficiencies, each with severity, location in code, estimated remediation effort, and actionable recommendations. It also computes an overall health score.
