/axiom:audit

Unified audit command with two modes: Smart mode analyzes your project and suggests audits; Direct mode runs a specific audit immediately.

Usage

# Smart mode — analyze project and suggest audits
/axiom:audit

# Direct mode — run specific audit
/axiom:audit [area]

Smart Mode

When run without arguments, analyzes your project and recommends relevant audits based on:

• Project type (SwiftUI vs UIKit)
• Data models (Core Data, SwiftData)
• Framework imports (CloudKit, Network.framework)
• Deployment target
• Code patterns (async/await, Timer usage)

Available Audit Areas

Grouped to mirror the sidebar exactly — same group names, same group order, same items in the same order within each group.

Build

Area	What It Checks
build	Build time optimization opportunities

Debugging

Area	What It Checks
codable	Manual JSON building, error swallowing, Sendable violations
core-data	Thread safety, schema migrations, N+1 queries
energy	Timer abuse, polling patterns, continuous location, animation leaks
memory	Retain cycles, Timer/observer leaks, closure captures
modernization	ObservableObject→@Observable, @StateObject→@State, deprecated APIs
swift-performance	ARC issues, allocation patterns, generic specialization

Testing

Area	What It Checks
testing	Flaky tests, slow tests, Swift Testing migration

Concurrency

Area	What It Checks
concurrency	Swift 6 data races, unsafe Task captures, actor isolation

UI & Design

Area	What It Checks
liquid-glass	iOS 26 adoption opportunities, toolbar improvements
swiftui-architecture	Logic in views, MVVM/TCA boundary violations
swiftui-layout	GeometryReader misuse, deprecated screen APIs, hardcoded breakpoints
swiftui-nav	NavigationStack issues, path management, deep linking
swiftui-performance	Expensive body, formatters, missing lazy containers
textkit	TextKit issues, text rendering problems
ux-flow	Dead-end views, dismiss traps, missing empty/loading/error states

Integration

Area	What It Checks
camera	Deprecated camera APIs, missing interruption handlers
foundation-models	Availability checks, main-thread blocking, guardrail handling
networking	Deprecated APIs (SCNetworkReachability), anti-patterns

Storage

Area	What It Checks
database-schema	Unsafe ALTER TABLE, DROP operations, FK integrity
icloud	iCloud entitlements, file coordination, CloudKit errors
storage	File protection, backup exclusions, storage strategies
swiftdata	@Model correctness, VersionedSchema, relationship defaults

Accessibility

Area	What It Checks
accessibility	VoiceOver, Dynamic Type, WCAG compliance

Games

Area	What It Checks
spritekit	Physics bitmask issues, draw call waste, action leaks

Shipping

Area	What It Checks
screenshots	Placeholder text, wrong dimensions, debug indicators
security	API keys in code, insecure storage, Privacy Manifests, ATS violations

Priority Levels

1. CRITICAL — core-data, swiftdata, database-schema, storage, icloud (data corruption/loss risk)
2. HIGH — concurrency, memory, energy, networking, security, testing (crashes, App Store rejection)
3. MEDIUM — swiftui-architecture, ux-flow, swiftui-performance, swiftui-layout, swift-performance, foundation-models (architecture, performance, UX)
4. LOW — accessibility, liquid-glass, codable, modernization, camera, screenshots (enhancement opportunities)
