Does Guard Audit modify my security scripts?

No, Guard Audit is designed to be non-destructive. It only reads the branch-guard.sh script and proposes changes to the .claude/branch-guard.json configuration file.

What types of false positives can this skill fix?

It commonly addresses issues like documentation being flagged for containing destructive commands, or configuration files being blocked on branches that should allow them.

When should I run a Guard Audit?

You should run it whenever you encounter a 'blocked' message for a legitimate operation, or when you want to refine how strictly different branches are protected.

Can I use this to allow force-pushes?

Yes, you can use Guard Audit to configure specific exceptions, such as allowing force-pushes on feature branches while maintaining strict blocks on the main branch.

Security & Testing

Optimizes Git branch protection rules by analyzing friction and proposing configuration changes to eliminate false positives.

Guard Audit is a specialized utility for managing repository safety without sacrificing developer velocity. It systematically scans your branch-guard.sh rules, identifies scenarios where legitimate operations are being incorrectly blocked—such as documentation containing Git commands—and runs a simulated test harness to validate potential fixes. The skill provides a non-destructive optimization path by proposing precise updates to the branch-guard.json configuration file rather than altering the underlying protection scripts, ensuring a secure yet smooth workflow.
