## Overview AI agents generate code that passes the happy path but hides debt: missing error handling, orphaned resources, ignored failure modes, hallucinated packages, silent architectural drift. This skill forces a targeted audit for the exact patterns AI agents get wrong. ## When to Use - After any AI code generation session (agent wrote 20+ lines) - Before merging AI-generated PRs - When code "works" but something feels off - After vibe-coding sprints — debt accumulates fastest here - When you find yourself saying "the agent said it's done" ## Process After ANY code generation, scan for these AI-specific debt patterns: ``` 1. FAILURE MODES — What happens when this fails? - Network timeout? Disk full? Permission denied? Null input? - Is there a try/catch? Does it catch SPECIFIC errors or swallow everything? - Are resources cleaned up on failure? (streams closed, connections returned, temp files deleted) 2. ORPHANS — What gets created but never cleaned up? - Temp files, event listeners, intervals, subscriptions, connections - Are there corresponding cleanup/dispose/close calls for every open/create? - In React: does every addEventListener have a removeEventListener in cleanup? 3. EDGE CASES — What inputs break this? - Empty array/string? null/undefined? Very large input? Unicode? Concurrent calls? - Does the code assume the happy path? (hint: AI almost always does) 4. HALLUCINATED DEPS — Do all imports actually exist? - Is every package i
