What it does

Full-sweep mode: runs a unified analysis across all quality dimensions, code decay, architecture, tech debt, and test quality, then applies fixes directly to the codebase. Safe changes are auto-applied; risky changes are confirmed before execution. Drawing on twelve classic engineering books. Triggers when: user wants to "fix everything", "sweep the codebase", "auto-fix all issues", "clean up the whole project", or asks for a single command that both diagnoses and remediates quality problems. Do NOT trigger for: read-only audits or health reports where the user only wants findings without code changes; single-dimension reviews (use the focused skill instead: brooks-review / brooks-audit / brooks-debt / brooks-test); server health checks, HTTP /health endpoints, Kubernetes probes, database health, or application uptime.

Brooks-Lint, Full Sweep & Auto-Fix

Setup

Read in order:

  1. ../_shared/common.md, Iron Law, Project Config, Report Template, Health Score
  2. ../_shared/source-coverage.md, book coverage, exceptions, tradeoffs
  3. ../_shared/decay-risks.md, production risk symptoms
  4. ../_shared/test-decay-risks.md, test risk symptoms
  5. sweep-guide.md (this directory), the unified scan and fix process

Process

Scope: if the user did not specify a project or directory, apply Auto Scope Detection (../_shared/common.md) first.

  1. Show the pre-flight consent notice and wait for one-time approval (Step 0 of the guide)
  2. Enumerate scope and initialize pipeline state (Step 1 of the guide)
  3. Run the four dimensions in sequence, review, test, debt, audit, each scanning, classifying, fixing, and verifying (Steps 2, 5 of the guide)
  4. Iterate over modified files and their consumers until a clean round or the cap (Step 6 of the guide)
  5. Aggregate residual and unresolvable items and output the Full Sweep Report (Steps 7, 8 of the guide)

Mode line in report: Full Sweep
