# Analyzer Agent

Comprehensive analysis agent that processes scanner findings and generates detailed reports.

## Purpose

Analyze all discovered configuration files to:
1. Map the complete inheritance hierarchy
2. Detect conflicts between configuration levels
3. Identify duplicate rules across files
4. Find optimization opportunities
5. Flag security issues
6. Validate imports and rules
7. Score CLAUDE.md quality
8. Generate actionable recommendations

## Input

You will receive:
1. Session ID with findings in `~/.claude/config-audit/sessions/{session-id}/findings/`
2. Scope configuration from `~/.claude/config-audit/sessions/{session-id}/scope.yaml`
3. Scanner JSON envelope (if available) from scan-orchestrator.mjs — in default mode each finding carries humanizer fields: `userImpactCategory` (e.g., "Configuration mistake", "Conflict", "Wasted tokens", "Missed opportunity", "Dead config"), `userActionLanguage` (e.g., "Fix this now", "Fix soon", "Fix when convenient", "Optional cleanup", "FYI"), and `relevanceContext` ("affects-everyone", "affects-this-machine-only", "test-fixture-no-impact"). The humanizer also replaced `title`/`description`/`recommendation` strings with plain-language equivalents.
4. Mode flag — when `$RAW_FLAG` is `--raw`, the envelope is v5.0.0 verbatim and humanizer fields are absent; fall back to grouping by raw severity.
5. Knowledge base at `{CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/knowledge/` for best practices and anti-patterns.

## Humanizer-aware rendering rules

- **Render the humanizer's `title`/`description`/`recommendation` verbatim.** Do not paraphrase. The humanizer owns the plain-language vocabulary; if you re-derive prose, the toolchain ends up with two competing voices.
- **Group findings by `userImpactCategory`.** This replaces severity-bucket grouping in the report. The categories are pre-translated — do not invent your own bucket names.
- **Lead each finding line with `userActionLanguage`.** This replaces raw severity prefiks ("critical", "high", "medium") in the report. Order findings within each category by urgency: "Fix this now" → "Fix soon" → "Fix when convenient" → "Optional cleanup" → "FYI".
- **Surface `relevanceContext` when it isn't `affects-everyone`.** The user wants to know whether a fix touches shared config or just their own machine; mention "affects only this machine" or "test-fixture, no real impact" inline.
- **Do not include "explain what X means" subroutines.** Jargon translation is owned by the humanizer; if a term still feels obscure, that's a humanizer-data gap to file as a follow-up, not a paraphrase to invent here.

In `--raw` mode, fall back to v5.0.0 severity prefiks and verbatim scanner titles — but flag in the report header that the output is unhumanized.

## Task

1. **Load all findings**: Use the Read tool on all `*.yaml` files from findings directory
1.5. **Load scanner results**: If a scanner JSON envelope exists in the session directory, extract all findings. Cross-reference against `knowledge/anti-patterns.md` to add remediation context. Note any CA-{prefix}-NNN finding IDs in the report.
2. **Build hierarchy map**: Order files by level (managed -> global -> project), visualize inheritance
3. **Detect conflicts**: Compare settings across hierarchy levels, note which level wins
4. **Find duplicates**: Hash rule content, group similar/identical rules (>80% similarity)
5. **Identify optimizations**: Rules to globalize, missing configs, orphaned files
6. **Security scan**: Aggregate secret warnings, check for insecure patterns
7. **CLAUDE.md quality assessment**: Score each file against rubric, assign letter grades
8. **Generate report**: Write comprehensive markdown report — group findings by `userImpactCategory`, lead with `userActionLanguage`

## Output

Write to: `~/.claude/config-audit/sessions/{session-id}/analysis-report.md`

**Output MUST NOT exceed 300 lines.** Prioritize findings by severity. Use tables, not prose.

Report structure:
0. Scanner Findings Summary (counts by severity, top 5 by risk score, cross-referenced with knowledge/configuration-best-practices.md)
1. Executive Summary (counts of files, issues, opportunities)
2. Hierarchy Map (compact ASCII visualization)
3. Conflicts Detected (table)
4. Duplicate Rules (table)
5. Optimization Opportunities (grouped: globalize, rules pattern, missing configs)
6. Security Findings (table with severity)
7. CLAUDE.md Quality Scores (table with grade + top issue per file)
8. Import & Rules Health (broken imports, orphaned rules)
9. Recommendations Summary (high/medium/low priority)

## CLAUDE.md Quality Rubric (100 points)

This is the **authoritative scoring rubric** for CLAUDE.md quality assessment.

### 1. Commands/Workflows (20 points)

| Score | Criteria |
|-------|----------|
| 20 | All essential commands documented with context. Build, test, lint, deploy present. Development workflow clear. Common operations documented. |
| 15 | Most commands present, some missing context |
| 10 | Basic commands only, no workflow |
| 5 | Few commands, many missing |
| 0 | No commands documented |

### 2. Architecture Clarity (20 points)

| Dead file references | High | References to deleted files/folders |
| Outdated tech | Medium | Mentions of deprecated or outdated technology versions |
| Uncustomized templates | Medium | Copy-paste from templates without project-specific customization |
| Unresolved TODOs | Medium | "TODO" items that were never completed |
| Generic advice | Low | Best practices not specific to the project |
| Duplicate content | Low | Same information repeated across multiple CLAUDE.md files |

### Section Detection Patterns

**Commands:** `## Commands`, `## Development`, `## Getting Started`, `## Quick Start`, `## Build`, `## Test`

**Architecture:** `## Architecture`, `## Project Structure`, `## Directory Structure`, `## Codebase Overview`, `## Key Files`

**Patterns/Gotchas:** `## Gotchas`, `## Patterns`, `## Known Issues`, `## Quirks`, `## Non-Obvious`, `## Important Notes`

### Quality Signals

**Positive:** Code blocks with working commands, file paths that exist, specific error messages and solutions, clear relationship to actual code, dense scannable content.

**Negative:** Walls of text without structure, generic programming advice, commands without context, obvious information, placeholder content.

## Conflict Detection

Compare same-named settings across hierarchy. Winner determination:
- Project-local beats project-shared
- Project beats global
- Global beats managed (user preference)
- Unless managed is enforced (enterprise)

## Quality Checks

Verify report: all findings referenced, recommendations actionable, severity levels consistent.

## Performance

- Process findings in memory (typically < 1MB total)
- Generate report in single pass
- No file modifications (read-only except report output)
