Semantic Content Auditor (L3 Worker)

Specialized worker auditing semantic accuracy of project documentation.

Purpose & Scope

• Worker in ln-610 coordinator pipeline - invoked by ln-610-docs-auditor for each project document
• Verify document content matches stated SCOPE (document purpose)
• Check content aligns with project goals (value contribution)
• Validate facts against codebase (accuracy and freshness)
• Return structured findings to coordinator with severity, location, fix suggestions

Target Documents

Called ONLY for project documents (not reference/tasks):

Document	Verification Focus
CLAUDE.md	Instructions match project structure, paths valid
docs/README.md	Navigation accurate, descriptions match reality
docs/documentation_standards.md	Standards applicable to this project
docs/principles.md	Principles reflected in actual code patterns
docs/project/requirements.md	Requirements implemented or still valid
docs/project/architecture.md	Architecture matches actual code structure
docs/project/tech_stack.md	Versions/technologies match package files
docs/project/api_spec.md	Endpoints/contracts match controllers
docs/project/database_schema.md	Schema matches actual DB/migrations
docs/project/design_guidelines.md	Components/styles exist in codebase
docs/project/runbook.md	Commands work, paths valid

Excluded: docs/tasks/, docs/reference/, docs/presentation/, tests/

Inputs (from Coordinator)

MANDATORY READ: Load shared/references/task_delegation_pattern.md#audit-coordinator--worker-contract for contextStore structure.

Receives from coordinator per invocation:

Field	Description
doc_path	Path to document to audit (e.g., docs/project/architecture.md)
output_dir	Directory for report output (from contextStore)
project_root	Project root path
tech_stack	Detected technology stack

Workflow

Phase 1: SCOPE EXTRACTION

1. Read document first 20 lines
2. Parse <!-- SCOPE: ... --> comment
3. If no SCOPE tag, infer from document type (see Verification Rules)
4. Record stated purpose/boundaries

Phase 2: CONTENT-SCOPE ALIGNMENT

Analyze document sections against stated scope:

Check	Finding Type
Section not serving scope	OFF_TOPIC
Scope aspect not covered	MISSING_COVERAGE
Excessive detail beyond scope	SCOPE_CREEP
Content duplicated elsewhere	SSOT_VIOLATION

Scoring:

• 10/10: All content serves scope, scope fully covered
• 8-9/10: Minor off-topic content or small gaps
• 6-7/10: Some sections not aligned, partial coverage
• 4-5/10: Significant misalignment, major gaps
• 1-3/10: Document does not serve its stated purpose

Phase 3: FACT VERIFICATION

Per document type, verify claims against codebase:

Document	Verification Method
architecture.md	Check layers exist (Glob for folders), verify imports follow described pattern (Grep)
tech_stack.md	Compare versions with package.json, go.mod, requirements.txt
api_spec.md	Match endpoints with controller/route files (Grep for routes)
requirements.md	Search for feature implementations (Grep for keywords)
database_schema.md	Compare with migration files or Prisma/TypeORM schemas
runbook.md	Validate file paths exist (Glob), test command syntax
principles.md	Sample code files for principle adherence patterns
CLAUDE.md	Verify referenced paths/files exist

Finding Types:

• OUTDATED_PATH: File/folder path no longer exists
• WRONG_VERSION: Documented version differs from package file
• MISSING_ENDPOINT: Documented API endpoint not found in code
• BEHAVIOR_MISMATCH: Described behavior differs from implementation
• STALE_REFERENCE: Reference to removed/renamed entity

Scoring:

• 10/10: All facts verified against code
• 8-9/10: Minor inaccuracies (typos, formatting)
• 6-7/10: Some paths/names outdated, core info correct
• 4-5/10: Functional mismatches (wrong behavior described)
• 1-3/10: Critical mismatches (architecture wrong, APIs broken)

Phase 4: SCORING & REPORT

Calculate final scores and compile findings:

scope_alignment_score = weighted_average(coverage, relevance, focus)
fact_accuracy_score = (verified_facts / total_facts) * 10

overall_score = (scope_alignment * 0.4) + (fact_accuracy * 0.6)

Fact accuracy weighted higher because incorrect information is worse than scope drift.

Scoring Algorithm

MANDATORY READ: Load shared/references/audit_scoring.md for unified scoring formula.

Output Format

MANDATORY READ: Load shared/templates/audit_worker_report_template.md for file format.

Write report to {output_dir}/612-semantic-{doc-slug}.md where doc-slug is derived from document filename (e.g., architecture, tech_stack, claude_md).

With category: "Semantic Content" and checks: scope_alignment, fact_accuracy.

Return summary to coordinator:

Report written: docs/project/.audit/ln-610/{YYYY-MM-DD}/612-semantic-architecture.md
Score: X.X/10 | Issues: N (C:N H:N M:N L:N)

Verification Rules by Document Type

MANDATORY READ: Load references/verification_rules.md for per-document verification patterns.

Critical Rules

• Read before judge: Always read full document and relevant code before reporting issues
• Evidence required: Every finding must include evidence field with verification command/result
• Code is truth: When docs contradict code, document is wrong (unless code is a bug)
• Scope inference: If no SCOPE tag, use document filename to infer expected scope
• No false positives: Better to miss an issue than report incorrectly
• Location precision: Always include line number for findings
• Actionable fixes: Every finding must have concrete fix suggestion

Definition of Done

• Document read completely
• SCOPE extracted or inferred
• Content-scope alignment analyzed
• Facts verified against codebase (with evidence)
• Score calculated using penalty algorithm
• Report written to {output_dir}/612-semantic-{doc-slug}.md (atomic single Write call)
• Summary returned to coordinator
