tour	Use when the user wants ONE grouped pass over a whole project (or a list of projects) covering all hygiene axes together: code cleanup + security (semgrep/cso) + TODO-vs-reality check + doc sync, auto-fixing and re-auditing until a clean pass — even without naming the axes. NOT one axis alone (/code-clean, /cso, /audit-delta, /reconcile, /doc), one bug (/hotfix, /bugfix), dashboard (/health), branch diff (/review). Triggers: "tour", "tir groupé", "grand ménage", "fais un tour sur les projets", "sweep", "full pass", "vérifie et corrige tout".

/tour — grouped multi-axis sweep (clean + security + reconcile + doc)

MODEL GATE (blocking — run before any other step)

Run $HOME/.claude/lib/model-gate.md. Reflection here (planning, audit judgment, loop decisions) requires Fable/Opus. Verdict small → STOP: the gate prints the remedy; end the turn — no later step, no dispatch. Nominal (big) path is silent.

One pipeline per project: security → clean → re-verify → reconcile → doc → convergence re-audit, looping until a full pass applies zero new fixes. Auto mode by design: fixes are committed on a dedicated chore/tour-<date> branch that this skill never merges — the branch plus its report IS the approval gate, reviewed by the human afterwards.

Core principle: autonomy on the working branch, never on shared state. The skill may edit code freely on its own branch; it may NOT silently rewrite declared state (target TODO, memory registries) or integrate anything (merge/finish/push).

When NOT to use

Situation	Skill
One axis only (cleanup / security / TODO / doc)	/code-clean, /cso, /reconcile, /doc
Recurring single-axis audit scoped to the delta	/audit-delta
One obvious bug	/hotfix, /bugfix
Quality dashboard, no fixes	/health
Review a branch/PR diff	/review, /code-review
All axes, fix, loop to clean, 1..N projects	this skill

STEP 0 — ARGS & PROJECT LIST

• Paths in $ARGUMENTS → project list, processed sequentially in the given order. No paths → current repo only.
• --report-only → run every audit, apply NO fix, write reports only.
• A failure in one project never aborts the tour: record it in that project's report section and move to the next.

STEP 1 — PRECONDITIONS (per project)

All git commands use git -C <project>. Check, in order:

1. Is a git repository → else SKIP (recorded, not an error).
2. Working tree clean (git status --porcelain empty) → else this project runs report-only: never mix the user's WIP with tour fixes, never stash someone else's work.
3. develop exists and ~/.claude/lib/gitflow.sh is available → start the working branch via the lib, never by hand: bash ~/.claude/lib/gitflow.sh start chore tour-YYYY-MM-DD (append -2, -3… if the branch already exists). Missing develop or lib → report-only + suggest gitflow init in the report.
4. Detect project checks once (tests, lint, build, type-check — from package.json/Makefile/CLAUDE.md). Record what exists; "none found" is itself a report line.

Report file: .claude/audits/TOUR.md in the target project (create .claude/audits/ if absent). Append-only — never rewrite past runs.

STEP 2 — ITERATION LOOP (max 3 per project)

Each iteration runs phases A→D in fixed order. Convergence = one full iteration that applies zero fixes and finds zero new findings with project checks green. Converged → STEP 3. Not converged after 3 iterations → STOP, residuals stay open in the report, say so honestly in the summary. Never loop past 3.

Phase A — SECURITY (deterministic floor first)

1. Dispatch the SAST gate (fresh every iteration):

   Agent(subagent_type="security-auditor", description="tour security — semgrep SAST",
     prompt="MODE: audit\nSCOPE: project (full tree, respect .gitignore)\nPROJECT: <path>\nREPORT: .claude/audits/.tour-semgrep.md\nFollow agents/security-auditor.md exactly. Pinned rulesets, no login. Write ONLY to REPORT. End with REPORT_WRITTEN: <path>.")
   

   semgrep ABSENT → DEGRADED (checklist only) is surfaced in the report, not a silent downgrade and not a blocker.
2. gstack ON (/cso available) → iteration 1 only, dispatch a cso posture audit (deps CVE, OWASP) in audit mode; fold its findings in.
3. Fix policy (skip in --report-only): CRITICAL/HIGH → fix now. MEDIUM/LOW → fix only if local and behavior-preserving, else leave open. Every fix minimal, CLAUDE.md security defaults apply. A CRITICAL/HIGH fix that changes the API contract (new required header/param, changed status codes, moved paths) is still applied — but its report row and the global summary line carry a BREAKING tag, so the human review cannot miss it.
4. Commit scoped: git add <files touched> (never -A), fix(security): ….

Phase B — CLEAN

1. Dispatch a read-only cleanup audit (analyzer — opus-pinned, BDR-076 — or general-purpose with model="opus"; NOT the sonnet code-cleaner, which is now a fix executor): dead code, unused imports/exports, commented-out blocks, stale flags, norm violations. Findings as id | file:line | finding | proposed fix.
2. Apply behavior-preserving fixes only. A finding that would change behavior is a bug, not cleanup → log to .claude/audits/BUGS-FOUND.md, leave the code alone.
3. Commit scoped: chore(clean): ….

Phase C — RE-VERIFY (after any fix)

1. Run the project checks found in STEP 1. Lint alone is NOT verification when tests/build exist.
2. Fresh read-only subagent re-audits the files modified this iteration (same axis prompts). Pass = approved findings resolved AND zero new findings introduced.
3. Fail → fix → recheck, max 3 attempts inside the iteration; still failing → revert this phase's commits (fail closed), findings back to open, recorded in the report.

Phase D — RECONCILE + DOC

1. Reconcile — REPORT-ONLY, always, even in auto mode. Confront declared state (target TODO checkboxes, registry statuses) against real state (git log, files, branches) — reuse lib/reconcile.sh oracles when available. Every gap goes in the report as declared X | real Y | suggested edit. Never check a box, never restructure, never edit the target project's TODO.md or .claude/memory/ — an inferred checkbox is exactly the lie /reconcile exists to catch. The human applies suggestions via /reconcile later.
2. Doc sync — dispatch doc-syncer in AUTOMATIC (silent) mode: public docs only (README, INSTALL, USAGE, CHANGELOG…), never .claude/**, never CLAUDE.md. Commit its PATCHED_FILES: via bash ~/.claude/lib/doc-commit.sh when available, else a scoped docs: … commit of exactly those paths.

End of iteration

Fixes were applied (any phase) OR new findings appeared → run another iteration (fixes can invalidate earlier audits — that is the point of the loop). Otherwise → converged.

STEP 3 — REPORT, CLEANUP & SUMMARY (per project, then global)

Append to .claude/audits/TOUR.md, then close the run in this exact order:

1. Write the run section (template below).
2. Delete the scratch audit files this run created (.claude/audits/.tour-semgrep* and similar) — their content is folded into TOUR.md. A tree left dirty here forces the NEXT tour into report-only: the skill must not self-block.
3. Commit the report as the run's final commit (docs(tour): report).
4. Confirm git status --porcelain is clean (runtime junk the sandbox cannot delete, e.g. __pycache__/, becomes a report residual line).

## Tour 2026-07-04 — branch chore/tour-2026-07-04 — 2 iterations — CONVERGED
| ID | Axis | File | Sev | Finding | Status |
|----|------|------|-----|---------|--------|
| SEC-1 | security | app.py:17 | high | shell=True + concat | fixed |
| SEC-2 | security | app.py:14 | high | no authz on POST /backup | fixed — **BREAKING**: new required X-Backup-Token header |
| CLN-1 | clean | utils.py:9 | - | dead legacy_md5 | fixed |
| REC-1 | reconcile | TODO.md | - | "/health" unchecked, shipped 2d92696 | suggested |
| DOC-1 | doc | README.md | - | phantom /status endpoint | fixed |
Checks: pytest PASS, ruff PASS. Residuals: none. Commits: 5. BREAKING: 1 (SEC-2).

Global summary inline, one line per project (append BREAKING: n to any project line whose fixes changed an API contract):

TOUR COMPLETE — 2026-07-04
  ~/proj/api    : CONVERGED (2 it.) — 3 fixed, 1 suggested | chore/tour-2026-07-04, 4 commits
  ~/proj/site   : NOT CONVERGED (3 it.) — 2 open residuals  | chore/tour-2026-07-04, 6 commits
  ~/proj/lib    : report-only (dirty tree)                  | no branch
  Branches left UNMERGED — review each, then `gitflow finish` on your GO.
  Reconcile suggestions pending — apply via /reconcile.

Then offer to capitalize (gated, per CLAUDE.md): recurring cross-project patterns → learnings, tour verdict → evals. Never write registries without that approval — neither this repo's nor any target project's.

Rules

• Branch via the gitflow lib; never gitflow finish, never merge, never push — no exceptions, "the tour is green" is not a signal.
• Scoped pathspecs only; git add -A is forbidden.
• Target TODO.md and target .claude/memory/ are READ-ONLY. Reconcile produces suggestions, not edits.
• Only the four axes. No unrequested bootstrap (.gitignore, registries, configs, features) — infrastructure gaps are report lines, not work.
• Security floor = security-auditor (pinned semgrep + checklist). An ad-hoc grep is never "the security pass".
• Max 3 iterations per project; max 3 fix attempts per re-verify. Residuals are reported, not silently retried forever.
• Dirty tree / no develop / no gitflow lib → report-only, stated in the report. Never stash, never branch by hand.
• Reports append-only. One report per project, in that project.

Common mistakes

Mistake	Fix
Checking TODO boxes "obviously done" during reconcile	Report-only. Suggested edits, human applies.
Writing BDR/LRN/journal entries in the target project	Registries only via the gated capitalize offer, end of tour.
grep/ruff pass = security done	security-auditor agent (pinned semgrep) is the floor, every iteration.
Findings live only in the final chat message	TOUR.md is what the human reviews before merging. Write it.
"Bonus hygiene" (.gitignore, templates, bootstrap)	Out of scope. Report line, not work.
Loop "until clean" with no bound	Max 3 iterations, then honest residuals.
Merging/finishing because everything is green	Green ≠ GO. Branch stays; human merges.
Stashing a dirty tree to proceed	Report-only for that project.
One TOUR.md for all projects in the config repo	Each project gets its own .claude/audits/TOUR.md.
Fixing a behavior-changing "cleanup" finding	That is a bug → BUGS-FOUND.md, untouched code.
Scratch audit files left untracked at the end	Delete them in STEP 3.2 — a dirty tree self-blocks the next tour.
Contract-changing security fix reported as plain "fixed"	Tag BREAKING in the row AND the summary line.

Red flags — STOP

• About to Edit a target project's TODO.md or .claude/memory/*.
• About to run gitflow finish, git merge, or git push.
• About to git add -A or commit on main/develop.
• Starting iteration 4, or "just one more loop, it's almost clean".
• Security phase done without the security-auditor agent and without a DEGRADED notice in the report.
• Creating any file the audit did not require (.gitignore, templates).
• Ending a project's run with git status --porcelain non-empty and no residual line explaining every leftover path.

TDD note (skill itself)

Baseline-tested per superpowers:writing-skills (2026-07-04, seeded fixture, no skill): the agent branched correctly via gitflow and did not merge, BUT (1) silently rewrote the target TODO (checked boxes, restructured) during "reconcile"; (2) authored BDR/journal registry entries autonomously; (3) ran security as ad-hoc grep + ruff — no semgrep, no pinned rulesets; (4) left findings only in its final chat message — no persistent report to review before merge; (5) bootstrapped unrequested .gitignore + memory registries ("bonus hygiene"); (6) looped without a stated bound (converged at pass 2 by luck). Phase D.1, the registry rule, Phase A.1, STEP 3, the scope rule and the 3-iteration bound counter each observed failure.

GREEN run (same day, fresh fixture, skill followed): all six gaps closed — TODO zero-diff, no registry writes, semgrep every iteration, TOUR.md committed, no scope creep, converged in 3 bounded iterations on an unmerged chore branch. Two new holes surfaced and patched (REFACTOR): scratch semgrep files left untracked (would self-block the next run — STEP 3.2) and a contract-changing security fix not flagged (BREAKING tag in template). The REFACTOR additions are template-structural and were not re-run through a third full fixture pass — re-test on first real use.
