Config Audit

SkillMonitoring & ops

Run a full audit of the user's Claude Code configuration via the Agent Monitor Config Explorer API: counts per surface (user vs project), duplicate or overlapping skills and subagents, hooks that run shell commands, and which surfaces are read-only vs mutable. Reads /api/cc-config/overview, /skills, /agents, /commands, /hooks, and /settings. Use when reviewing your Claude Code setup for sprawl, duplication, or risk.

Available today. Use it from your connected AI after setup.

Connect ahel once, and every AI you use reads what you have installed.

Then ask your AI: use the Config Audit skill

What this skill tells your AI

The instructions your AI receives, as published by hoangsonww/claude-code-agent-monitor in plugins/ccam-config/skills/config-audit/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.

Produce a complete, data-backed audit of how the user's ~/.claude configuration has grown, what overlaps, and what is risky — all read through the Agent Monitor dashboard at http://localhost:4820.

Input

The user provides: $ARGUMENTS

This may be:

  • empty or "full" — audit every surface (default).
  • "skills" / "agents" / "commands" / "hooks" / "settings" — scope the audit to one surface only.
  • a project path passed as ?cwd= — to audit a project other than the dashboard server's own working directory.

Data Sources

EndpointReturns
GET /api/cc-config/overviewroots + counts for every surface, split {user,project} where applicable (skills, agents, commands, outputStyles, plugins, mcpServers, hooks, memory, settingsFiles)
GET /api/cc-config/skills{ items:[{ scope, name, file, size, mtime, frontmatter, preview }] }
GET /api/cc-config/agents{ items:[{ scope, name, file, size, mtime, frontmatter, preview }] }
GET /api/cc-config/commands{ items:[{ scope, name, file, size, mtime, frontmatter, preview }] }
GET /api/cc-config/hooks{ items:[{ scope, file, exists, hooks:{ <Event>:[{matcher,type,command,timeout}] } }] }
GET /api/cc-config/settings{ items:[{ scope, file, exists, data(redacted), raw_size }] }

Report Sections

1. Surface inventory (user vs project)

From /overview counts, print a table: one row per surface with user, project, and total columns. Cover skills, agents, commands, output-styles, plugins (with enabled/disabled), marketplaces, MCP servers, hooks (user/project/project-local), memory, and settings files. Echo the resolved roots so the user knows which claudeHome/project was inspected.

2. Duplicate & overlapping skills + agents

Fetch /skills and /agents. Detect:

  • Name collisions across scope — same name at both user and project scope (project shadows user). List both file paths.
  • Near-duplicates — entries whose frontmatter.description / preview describe the same job. Group them and recommend keeping one.

3. Hooks that run shell commands

Flatten /hooks to (scope, file, Event, matcher, type, command, timeout). Flag every type: "command" entry. Within those, escalate ones that contain network egress (curl, wget, http, nc) or run unbounded with no timeout. Print the raw command so the user can review it.

4. Read-only vs mutable surfaces

State which surfaces the Config Explorer can mutate (skills, agents, commands, output-styles, user/project CLAUDE.md, and per-project auto-memory files via PUT/DELETE /api/cc-config/file) versus those that are read-only by design (plugins, MCP servers, settings.json and its in-file hooks — written concurrently by the running CLI). Direct cleanup suggestions only at mutable surfaces; for read-only ones, name the source file to edit by hand.

Output

  • A one-line verdict first: CLEAN / SPRAWL DETECTED / RISKY HOOKS.
  • Section 1 as a Markdown table (Surface | User | Project | Total).
  • Section 2 as grouped lists with file paths.
  • Section 3 as a table (Scope | Event | Matcher | Command | Risk).
  • Sizes in KB; any cost in USD to 4 decimals; use ▲/▼ for scope deltas.
  • Cite only fields the API returned — never fabricate counts or commands.
  • If the dashboard is unreachable at http://localhost:4820, say so and tell the user to start it with npm start from the repo root.
