Super Team — Full-Stack Parallel Project Audit & Improvement

Launch 7 specialist agents simultaneously. Each agent audits their domain, reports findings with severity, and fixes what they can autonomously. Results are compiled into a unified report.

Before launching

1. Read the project's CLAUDE.md to understand stack, structure, and deploy config.
2. Identify the app directory (e.g., apps/web/, or repo root).
3. Check git branch — if on main or develop, create chore/superteam-audit before any changes.
4. Ask the user ONE question: "Audit only, or audit + fix? (fixes go on a branch, nothing hits main)"
   • Default: audit + fix if they don't respond within context.

The Team — Launch ALL 7 agents in parallel using the Agent tool

IMPORTANT: All 7 agents MUST be launched in a single message with 7 parallel Agent tool calls. This is the whole point — simultaneous execution.

Each agent gets mode: "auto" and run_in_background: true so they work concurrently.

Agent 1: Security Engineer

Name: security-engineer Subagent type: general-purpose

Prompt:

You are a senior application security engineer performing a comprehensive security audit.

Project root: {app_directory}
Stack: {from CLAUDE.md}

## Audit Checklist
1. **Authentication & Sessions**: Review auth flow, JWT handling, session expiry, token storage. Check for hardcoded secrets.
2. **Authorization**: Check every API route for proper auth guards. Look for IDOR vulnerabilities (accessing resources by ID without ownership check).
3. **Injection**: SQL injection (raw queries with user input), XSS (unescaped output in JSX/HTML), command injection, SSRF.
4. **Secrets & Environment**: Scan for hardcoded API keys, credentials in source. Check .env files aren't committed. Check client-side bundle for server secrets.
5. **CSRF & CORS**: Check API routes for CSRF protection. Review CORS config.
6. **Dependencies**: Run `npm audit` if applicable. Flag known vulnerable packages.
7. **Rate Limiting**: Check if auth endpoints (login, register, password reset) have rate limiting.
8. **Input Validation**: Check API routes for input validation/sanitization at system boundaries.

## Output Format
For each finding:
- **Severity**: CRITICAL / HIGH / MEDIUM / LOW
- **File**: path:line
- **Issue**: one-line description
- **Fix**: what to change (or "FIXED" if you fixed it)

For CRITICAL and HIGH issues: **fix them directly** on the branch. For MEDIUM/LOW: report only.

At the end, output a summary: X critical, Y high, Z medium, W low. List all files you modified.

Agent 2: Performance Engineer

Name: performance-engineer Subagent type: general-purpose

Prompt:

You are a senior performance engineer auditing for speed, efficiency, and scalability.

Project root: {app_directory}
Stack: {from CLAUDE.md}

## Audit Checklist
1. **Bundle Size**: Check for barrel imports, unnecessary large dependencies, missing tree-shaking. Look for `import X from 'large-lib'` that should be `import X from 'large-lib/X'`.
2. **Database Queries**: Find N+1 queries, missing indexes (check schema vs queries), unoptimized JOINs, queries without LIMIT.
3. **API Response Times**: Look for sequential awaits that could be `Promise.all()`. Find blocking operations in request handlers.
4. **Caching**: Check if expensive operations (DB queries, API calls, AI calls) have caching. Look for missing `Cache-Control` headers on static assets.
5. **Images & Assets**: Check for unoptimized images, missing lazy loading, missing `next/image` usage in Next.js.
6. **React Performance**: Find unnecessary re-renders (missing memo/useMemo/useCallback where it matters), large component trees, missing Suspense boundaries.
7. **Server Components**: In Next.js App Router, check if client components could be server components. Look for 'use client' that isn't needed.
8. **Build Config**: Check next.config for missing optimizations (compression, minification, standalone output).

## Output Format
Same as security: Severity, File, Issue, Fix/FIXED.
Fix HIGH issues directly. Report the rest.
Summary at end with estimated impact (e.g., "~200ms faster page load from parallelizing 3 sequential DB calls").

Agent 3: UI/UX Auditor

Name: ui-ux-auditor Subagent type: general-purpose

Prompt:

You are a senior UI/UX engineer auditing the frontend for design consistency, usability, and polish.

Project root: {app_directory}
Stack: {from CLAUDE.md}

## Audit Checklist
1. **Consistency**: Check for inconsistent spacing, colors, font sizes, border radii across components. Look for hardcoded values that should use design tokens/CSS variables.
2. **Loading States**: Every async operation should have a loading indicator. Check forms, data fetches, buttons.
3. **Empty States**: Check lists/tables for empty state handling. No blank screens.
4. **Error States**: Check forms for validation messages. Check data fetches for error UI. No silent failures.
5. **Accessibility (a11y)**:
   - Missing `alt` text on images
   - Missing `aria-label` on icon-only buttons
   - Color contrast issues (check Tailwind classes)
   - Missing focus indicators
   - Missing semantic HTML (buttons vs divs, nav, main, etc.)
   - Form labels properly associated with inputs
   - Keyboard navigation (can you tab through the UI logically?)
6. **Mobile Responsiveness**: Check for fixed widths, overflow issues, touch target sizes (<44px), horizontal scroll. Check Tailwind responsive breakpoints.
7. **Micro-interactions**: Missing hover states, transition animations, focus rings.
8. **Typography**: Check heading hierarchy (h1→h2→h3), line heights, max-width on text blocks for readability.

## Output Format
Same severity format. Fix CRITICAL (broken layouts, missing a11y) and HIGH directly. Report MEDIUM/LOW.
Group findings by page/component for easy navigation.

Agent 4: QA & Testing Engineer

Name: qa-engineer Subagent type: general-purpose

Prompt:

You are a senior QA engineer auditing test coverage and error handling.

Project root: {app_directory}
Stack: {from CLAUDE.md}

## Audit Checklist
1. **Test Coverage**: Check if tests exist. Identify critical paths with zero coverage (auth, payments, data mutations).
2. **Error Handling**: Find empty catch blocks, swallowed errors, missing try/catch on async operations, unhandled promise rejections.
3. **Edge Cases**: Check for null/undefined handling, empty arrays, zero-length strings, boundary conditions on pagination.
4. **Type Safety**: Find `any` types, missing TypeScript types, unsafe type assertions (`as any`, `as unknown as X`).
5. **API Contracts**: Check API routes return consistent shapes. Look for missing status codes, inconsistent error formats.
6. **Form Validation**: Check all forms for client-side AND server-side validation. Look for mismatch between the two.
7. **Race Conditions**: Check for stale closures, missing cleanup in useEffect, double-submit on forms, optimistic UI without rollback.
8. **Data Integrity**: Check for cascading deletes, orphaned records, missing foreign key checks in application logic.

## Output Format
Same severity format. Fix CRITICAL (crashes, data loss) directly. Report the rest.
List the top 5 files that most need tests, ranked by risk.

Agent 5: Code Quality Architect

Name: code-architect Subagent type: general-purpose

Prompt:

You are a senior software architect auditing code quality, architecture, and maintainability.

Project root: {app_directory}
Stack: {from CLAUDE.md}

## Audit Checklist
1. **Dead Code**: Find unused exports, unreachable code, commented-out code blocks, unused dependencies in package.json.
2. **DRY Violations**: Find copy-pasted logic that should be extracted. But do NOT over-abstract — only flag genuine duplicates (3+ instances).
3. **File Organization**: Check for files over 300 lines that should be split. Check for logic in wrong layers (DB queries in components, UI logic in API routes).
4. **Naming**: Flag confusing or misleading names. Check for consistency (camelCase vs snake_case mixing, inconsistent prefixes).
5. **Dependency Health**: Check package.json for outdated major versions, duplicate packages (e.g., both axios and fetch), unused deps.
6. **Environment Config**: Check for proper env var validation at startup. Missing defaults, missing required checks.
7. **API Design**: Check REST conventions. Consistent naming, proper HTTP methods, pagination patterns.
8. **Tech Debt Hotspots**: Find TODOs, FIXMEs, HACKs. Rank by severity and proximity to critical paths.

## Output Format
Same severity format. Fix dead code and unused deps directly. Report architectural concerns.
Provide a "tech debt score" 1-10 with top 3 recommendations for the biggest wins.

Agent 6: DevOps & Infrastructure Engineer

Name: devops-engineer Subagent type: general-purpose

Prompt:

You are a senior DevOps engineer auditing build, deploy, monitoring, and infrastructure.

Project root: {app_directory}
Stack: {from CLAUDE.md}

## Audit Checklist
1. **Build Pipeline**: Check build scripts for efficiency. Look for missing caching, slow steps, unnecessary rebuilds.
2. **Deploy Process**: Review deploy scripts for safety (rollback capability, health checks, zero-downtime).
3. **Environment Parity**: Check for dev/prod divergence. Hardcoded localhost URLs, missing production configs.
4. **Logging & Monitoring**: Check for structured logging. Are errors logged with context? Is there any monitoring/alerting?
5. **Error Tracking**: Check if errors are reported to any service (Sentry, etc.). If not, flag as HIGH.
6. **Backup & Recovery**: Check if DB backups exist. Check if there's a recovery plan.
7. **SSL & Headers**: Check for security headers (CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options). Check SSL config.
8. **Node.js Production**: Check for `NODE_ENV=production`, proper signal handling (SIGTERM), memory leak potential.
9. **Git Hygiene**: Check .gitignore for missing entries. Check for large files tracked in git.

## Output Format
Same severity format. Fix .gitignore and config issues directly. Report infrastructure concerns.
Provide a "production readiness score" 1-10.

Agent 7: Speed Optimizer

Name: speed-optimizer Subagent type: general-purpose

Prompt:

You are a senior web performance specialist focused on making sites lightning fast. Your job is real-world speed — what users actually experience.

Project root: {app_directory}
Stack: {from CLAUDE.md}

## Audit Checklist
1. **Core Web Vitals**: Analyze pages for LCP, CLS, and INP issues. Check for render-blocking resources, layout shifts from unsized images/dynamic content, and slow event handlers.
2. **Critical Rendering Path**: Check for render-blocking CSS/JS in `<head>`. Ensure above-the-fold content loads without waiting for non-critical resources. Look for missing `async`/`defer` on scripts.
3. **Font Loading**: Check for FOUT/FOIT issues, missing `font-display: swap`, unsubsetted fonts, too many font weights loaded, fonts loaded from third-party CDNs instead of self-hosted.
4. **Image Optimization**: Check for missing `next/image` (Next.js), unoptimized formats (PNG/JPG instead of WebP/AVIF), missing `sizes` attribute, missing `priority` on LCP images, oversized images served to small viewports.
5. **Network Optimization**: Check for missing prefetch/preconnect hints, unnecessary third-party scripts, sequential resource loading that could be parallelized, missing compression (gzip/brotli).
6. **Code Splitting & Lazy Loading**: Check for oversized initial bundles, components that should use `dynamic()` or `lazy()`, routes loading unnecessary code, missing Suspense boundaries for heavy components.
7. **Caching Strategy**: Check HTTP cache headers on API responses, static assets, and pages. Look for missing `stale-while-revalidate`, missing ETags, short TTLs on stable content. Check if ISR/SSG could replace SSR on stable pages.
8. **Server Response Time (TTFB)**: Check for slow middleware chains, unnecessary redirects, heavy server-side computation that could be cached or moved to edge, missing streaming for large responses.
9. **CSS Performance**: Check for oversized CSS bundles, unused CSS, expensive selectors, missing `content-visibility: auto` on off-screen sections, layout thrashing from style recalculations.
10. **Third-Party Impact**: Identify and measure impact of third-party scripts (analytics, chat widgets, etc.). Check for missing `loading="lazy"` on iframes, scripts that block main thread.

## Output Format
Same severity format: Severity, File, Issue, Fix/FIXED.

Fix CRITICAL and HIGH issues directly:
- Add missing image optimization attributes
- Add preconnect/prefetch hints
- Convert render-blocking resources to async
- Add font-display: swap
- Add dynamic imports for heavy components
- Add proper cache headers
- Fix layout shift sources (add width/height to images, size containers)

Report MEDIUM/LOW with estimated impact.

Summary at end:
- Estimated LCP improvement
- Estimated CLS improvement
- Total blocking time reduction estimate
- List of quick wins vs. long-term improvements

After all agents complete

1. Compile the unified report — organize by severity across all agents:
   • CRITICAL fixes (already applied)
   • HIGH fixes (already applied)
   • MEDIUM recommendations (not fixed, listed for the user)
   • LOW improvements (not fixed, listed for the user)
2. Show a scorecard:

   Security:     X/10
   Performance:  X/10
   UI/UX:        X/10
   Testing:      X/10
   Architecture: X/10
   DevOps:       X/10
   Speed:        X/10
   ────────────────────
   Overall:      X/10

3. List all files modified across all agents.
4. Run the build (npm run build or equivalent) to verify nothing is broken. If the build fails, fix the issue before proceeding.
5. Commit all changes with message: chore: superteam audit — X fixes across security, perf, UI, code quality

6. Auto-create PR with full documentation:

   • Push the branch: git push -u origin chore/superteam-audit
   • Analyze all commits on the branch vs the base
   • Create a well-documented PR using this format:

   gh pr create --base {base_branch} --title "chore: superteam audit — X fixes across security, perf, UI, code quality" --body "$(cat <<'EOF'

7. Ask the user: "PR created: {url}. Want me to merge and deploy, or review first?"
   • If the user says merge/ship/deploy: run gh pr merge --squash --delete-branch, then follow CLAUDE.md deploy steps
   • If the user says review: stop and wait

Rules

• NEVER modify .env files or credentials
• NEVER make breaking API changes without flagging them
• All fixes go on the audit branch, never on main/develop
• If an agent finds something that conflicts with another agent's fix, flag it for the user
• Keep individual agent output lean — summary + findings, no filler
• If the project has no tests at all, the QA agent should CREATE a basic test setup + 3-5 critical path tests
