Build Health Auditor (L3 Worker)

Type: L3 Worker

Specialized worker auditing build health and code quality tooling.

Purpose & Scope

• Worker in codebase audit pipeline

• Audit codebase for build health issues (Category 2: Critical Priority)

• Check compiler/linter errors, deprecation warnings, type errors, failed tests, build config

• Return structured findings to coordinator with severity, location, effort, recommendations

• Calculate compliance score (X/10) for Build Health category

Inputs

MANDATORY READ: Load shared/references/audit_worker_core_contract.md .

Receives contextStore with: tech_stack (including build_tool, test_framework), best_practices , principles , codebase_root , output_dir .

Workflow

MANDATORY READ: Load shared/references/two_layer_detection.md for detection methodology.

• Parse Context: Extract tech stack, build tools, test framework, output_dir from contextStore

• Run Build Checks (Layer 1): Execute compiler, linter, type checker, tests (see Audit Rules below)

• Analyze Output Context (Layer 2): For deprecation warnings -- read notice to determine if removal is imminent or distant. For config issues -- check if dev-only or production config.

• Collect Findings: Record each violation with severity, location, effort, recommendation

• Calculate Score: Count violations by severity, calculate compliance score (X/10)

• Write Report: Build full markdown report in memory per shared/templates/audit_worker_report_template.md , write to {output_dir}/ln-622--global.md in single Write call

• Trend Tracking: Append build_health metric to results_log per shared/references/results_log_pattern.md . Metric: build_health | 0-10 | penalty formula . Calculate delta and status (improving/stable/declining) vs previous run.

• Return Summary: Return minimal summary to coordinator (see Output Format)

Audit Rules (Priority: CRITICAL)

MANDATORY READ: Load shared/references/ci_tool_detection.md for build commands, linter commands, type checker commands, and test framework commands per ecosystem.

1. Compiler/Linter Errors

What: Syntax errors, compilation failures, linter rule violations

Detection: Use ci_tool_detection.md Command Registry (Build + Linters sections). Check exit code, parse stderr for errors. Use JSON output flags where available.

Linters: Use ci_tool_detection.md Linters table. Use --format json / --output-format json for structured output.

Severity:

• CRITICAL: Compilation fails, cannot build project

• HIGH: Linter errors (not warnings)

• MEDIUM: Linter warnings

• LOW: Stylistic linter warnings (formatting)

Recommendation: Fix errors before proceeding, configure linter rules, add pre-commit hooks

Effort: S-M (fix syntax error vs refactor code structure)

2. Unsupported API Warnings

What: Usage of unsupported APIs, libraries, or language features

Detection:

• Compiler warnings: UnsupportedApiWarning , @obsolete in stack trace

• Dependency warnings: npm outdated , pip list --outdated

• Static analysis: Grep for @obsolete annotations

Severity:

• CRITICAL: Unsupported API removed in next major version (imminent breakage)

• HIGH: Unsupported with migration path available

• MEDIUM: Unsupported but still supported for 1+ year

• LOW: Soft deprecation (no removal timeline)

Recommendation: Migrate to recommended API, update dependencies, refactor code

Effort: M-L (depends on API complexity and usage frequency)

3. Type Errors

What: Type mismatches, missing type annotations, type checker failures

Detection: Use ci_tool_detection.md Command Registry (Type Checkers section).

Severity:

• CRITICAL: Type error prevents compilation (tsc fails, cargo check fails)

• HIGH: Runtime type error likely (implicit any , missing type guards)

• MEDIUM: Missing type annotations (code works but untyped)

• LOW: Overly permissive types (any , unknown without narrowing)

Recommendation: Add type annotations, enable strict mode, use type guards

Effort: S-M (add types to single file vs refactor entire module)

4. Failed or Skipped Tests

What: Test suite failures, skipped tests, missing test coverage

Detection: Use ci_tool_detection.md Command Registry (Test Frameworks section). Use JSON output flags for structured parsing.

Severity:

• CRITICAL: Test failures in CI/production code

• HIGH: Skipped tests for critical features (payment, auth)

• MEDIUM: Skipped tests for non-critical features

• LOW: Skipped tests with "TODO" comment (acknowledged debt)

Recommendation: Fix failing tests, remove skip markers, add missing tests

Effort: S-M (update test assertion vs redesign test strategy)

5. Build Configuration Issues

What: Misconfigured build tools, missing scripts, incorrect paths

Detection:

• Missing build scripts in package.json , Makefile , build.gradle

• Incorrect paths in tsconfig.json , webpack.config.js , Cargo.toml

• Missing environment-specific configs (dev, staging, prod)

• Unused or conflicting build dependencies

Severity:

• CRITICAL: Build fails due to misconfiguration

• HIGH: Build succeeds but outputs incorrect artifacts (wrong target, missing assets)

• MEDIUM: Suboptimal config (no minification, missing source maps)

• LOW: Unused config options

Recommendation: Fix config paths, add missing build scripts, optimize build settings

Effort: S-M (update config file vs redesign build pipeline)

Scoring Algorithm

MANDATORY READ: Load shared/references/audit_worker_core_contract.md and shared/references/audit_scoring.md .

Output Format

MANDATORY READ: Load shared/references/audit_worker_core_contract.md and shared/templates/audit_worker_report_template.md .

Write JSON summary per shared/references/audit_summary_contract.md . In managed mode the caller passes both runId and summaryArtifactPath ; in standalone mode the worker generates its own run-scoped artifact path per shared contract.

Write report to {output_dir}/ln-622--global.md with category: "Build Health" and checks: compilation_errors, linter_warnings, type_errors, test_failures, build_config.

Return summary per shared/references/audit_summary_contract.md .

When summaryArtifactPath is absent, write the standalone runtime summary under .hex-skills/runtime-artifacts/runs/{run_id}/evaluation-worker/{worker}--{identifier}.json and optionally echo the same summary in structured output.

Report written: .hex-skills/runtime-artifacts/runs/{run_id}/audit-report/ln-622--global.md Score: X.X/10 | Issues: N (C:N H:N M:N L:N)

Critical Rules

MANDATORY READ: Load shared/references/audit_worker_core_contract.md .

• Do not auto-fix: Report violations only; coordinator creates task for user to fix

• Tech stack aware: Use contextStore to run appropriate build commands (npm vs cargo vs gradle)

• Exit code checking: Always check exit code (0 = success, non-zero = failure)

• Timeout handling: Set timeout for build/test commands (default 5 minutes)

• Environment aware: Run in CI mode if detected (no interactive prompts)

Monitor (2.1.98+): For build/lint/typecheck/test commands expected >30s, use Monitor . Fallback: Bash(run_in_background=true) .

Definition of Done

MANDATORY READ: Load shared/references/audit_worker_core_contract.md .

• contextStore parsed successfully (including output_dir)

• All 5 build checks completed (compiler, linter, type checker, tests, config)

• Findings collected with severity, location, effort, recommendation

• Score calculated using penalty algorithm

• Report written to {output_dir}/ln-622--global.md (atomic single Write call)

• build_health metric appended to results_log with trend status

• Summary written per contract
