# Project Health Auditor
**MCP Server Plugin for Claude Code**
Analyze local repositories for code health, complexity, test coverage gaps, and git churn patterns. Get multi-dimensional insights into your codebase health combining complexity metrics, change frequency, and test coverage.
---
## Features
### 4 Powerful MCP Tools
**1. `list_repo_files`** - File Discovery
- List all files in a repository with glob pattern matching
- Exclude patterns (node_modules, .git, dist, build)
- Returns file count and full file list
**2. `file_metrics`** - Code Health Analysis
- Cyclomatic complexity calculation
- Function/method counting
- Comment ratio analysis
- File size and line count
- Health score (0-100) based on multiple factors
**3. `git_churn`** - Change Frequency Analysis
- Identify files that change frequently
- Track authors per file
- Find hot spots in your codebase
- Analyze commit patterns over time
**4. `map_tests`** - Test Coverage Mapping
- Map source files to test files
- Identify files missing tests
- Calculate test coverage ratio
- Get actionable recommendations

## Installation
```bash
# Install the plugin
/plugin install project-health-auditor@claude-code-plugins-plus
# The MCP server will be automatically available
```
---
## Usage
### Quick Analysis
```
Analyze the health of /path/to/my-project
```
Claude will use the MCP tools to:
1. List all source files
2. Analyze complexity of key files
3. Check git churn patterns
4. Map test coverage
### Individual Tool Usage
**List Repository Files:**
```
Use list_repo_files on /path/to/repo with globs ["src/**/*.ts", "lib/**/*.js"]
```
**Analyze File Metrics:**
```
What's the complexity of src/services/auth.ts?
```
**Check Git Churn:**
```
Show me the most frequently changed files in the last 6 months
```
**Map Tests:**
```
Which files are missing tests in this project?
```

## ️ MCP Tools Reference
### list_repo_files
**Purpose:** Discover files in a repository
**Input:**
```typescript
{
repoPath: string; // Absolute path to repository
globs?: string[]; // Patterns to match (default: ["**/*"])
exclude?: string[]; // Patterns to exclude
}
```
**Output:**
```json
{
"repoPath": "/path/to/repo",
"totalFiles": 245,
"files": ["src/index.ts", "src/utils/helper.ts", ...],
"patterns": ["**/*"],
"excluded": ["node_modules/**", ".git/**"]
}
```
---
### file_metrics
**Purpose:** Analyze a single file's health
**Input:**
```typescript
{
filePath: string; // Absolute path to file
}
```
**Output:**
```json
{
"file": "src/services/auth.ts",
"size": 12543,
"lines": 342,
"extension": ".ts",
"complexity": {
"cyclomatic": 28,
"functions": 12,
"averagePerFunction": 2
},
"comments": {
"lines": 45,
"ratio": 13.16
},
"healthScore": 75
}
```
**Health Score Factors:**
- **High complexity** (>10 per function): -30 points
- **Medium complexity** (5-10): -15 points
- **Low comments** (<5%): -10 points
- **Good comments** (>20%): +10 points
- **Very long files** (>500 lines): -20 points
- **Long files** (>300 lines): -10 points
---
### git_churn
**Purpose:** Find frequently changing files (hot spots)
**Input:**
```typescript
{
repoPath: string; // Absolute path to git repository
since?: string; // Time period (default: "6 months ago")
}
```
**Output:**
```json
{
"repoPath": "/path/to/repo",
"since": "6 months ago",
"totalCommits": 342,
"filesChanged": 156,
"topChurnFiles": [
{
"file": "src/api/handler.ts",
"commits": 45,
"authors": ["Alice", "Bob"],
"authorCount": 2
}
],
"summary": {
"highChurn": 12, // >10 commits
"mediumChurn": 34, // 5-10 commits
"lowChurn": 110 // <5 commits
}
}
```
**High churn files are candidates for refactoring or stabilization.**

### map_tests
**Purpose:** Identify test coverage gaps
**Input:**
```typescript
{
repoPath: string; // Absolute path to repository
}
```
**Output:**
```json
{
"repoPath": "/path/to/repo",
"summary": {
"totalSourceFiles": 156,
"totalTestFiles": 98,
"testedFiles": 102,
"coverageRatio": 65.38
},
"coverage": {
"src/services/auth.ts": ["src/services/auth.test.ts"],
"src/utils/helper.ts": ["src/utils/helper.spec.ts"]
},
"missingTests": [
"src/api/legacy.ts",
"src/utils/old-helper.ts"
],
"recommendations": [
"️ Test coverage is below 80%. Consider adding tests for remaining files.",
" High priority: Add tests for 23 files in critical directories"
]
}
```

## Use Cases
### 1. Pre-Refactoring Analysis
Before refactoring, identify:
- High complexity files (complexity > 10)
- High churn files (commits > 10)
- Files missing tests
**Strategy:** Refactor high-complexity, high-churn files first.
### 2. Code Review Preparation
Analyze changed files:
```
What's the complexity of the files I changed in the last commit?
```
### 3. Test Coverage Improvement
Find critical files without tests:
```
Which files in src/services/ are missing tests?
```
### 4. Technical Debt Identification
Combine metrics to find problematic files:
- High complexity + High churn + Missing tests = **Technical debt hot spot**
### 5. Onboarding New Developers
Show new team members:
- Most frequently changed files
- Core files with good health scores
- Areas needing test coverage

## Health Score Interpretation
| Score | Health | Action |
|-------|--------|--------|
| 90-100 | Excellent | Maintain current quality |
| 70-89 | Good | Minor improvements recommended |
| 50-69 | Fair | Consider refactoring |
| 30-49 | Poor | Refactoring needed |
| 0-29 | Critical | Immediate attention required |

## Metrics Explained
### Cyclomatic Complexity
Measures the number of independent paths through code:
- **1-10:** Simple, low risk
- **11-20:** Moderate complexity
- **21-50:** High complexity, hard to test
- **50+:** Very high risk, needs refactoring
**Calculation:** Count of control flow keywords (if, for, while, switch, &&, ||, ?) + 1
### Git Churn
Frequency of file changes:
- **High churn** (>10 commits): Hot spot, may need stabilization
- **Medium churn** (5-10): Normal development activity
- **Low churn** (<5): Stable or new file
**Why it matters:** High churn + High complexity = Technical debt
### Test Coverage Ratio
Percentage of source files with corresponding tests:
- **80-100%:** Excellent
- **60-79%:** Good
- **40-59%:** Fair
- **<40%:** Poor
