Is documentation required for the audit to work?

While architecture diagrams and docs are helpful, the skill is designed to map the system by inventorying components and tracing request paths directly from the code.

Can this skill help with scaling a web application?

Yes, it specifically identifies scalability limits such as database pressure, memory leaks, and heavy I/O patterns to help you prepare for growth.

How does it handle security auditing?

It checks for common vulnerabilities like poor input validation, weak authentication/authorization patterns, and improper handling of secrets or sensitive data.

Does it provide actionable fixes or just a list of problems?

Every finding includes a clear impact statement, concrete evidence from the code, and a prioritized fix direction categorized by severity.

What specifically does the CTO Audit skill evaluate?

It assesses architecture modularity, code quality, performance efficiency, security posture, and operational readiness including DevOps and monitoring.
