# Coverage Gaps Auditor (L3 Worker)
**Type:** L3 Worker
Specialized worker identifying missing tests for critical business logic.
## Purpose & Scope
- Audit **Coverage Gaps** (Category 4: High Priority)
- Identify untested critical paths
- Classify by category (Money, Security, Data, Core Flows)
- Calculate compliance score (X/10)
## Inputs
**MANDATORY READ:** Load `shared/references/audit_worker_core_contract.md`.
**MANDATORY READ:** Load `shared/references/mcp_tool_preferences.md` and `shared/references/mcp_integration_patterns.md`
Receives `contextStore` with: `tech_stack`, `testFilesMetadata`, `codebase_root`, `output_dir`.
**Domain-aware:** Supports `domain_mode` + `current_domain` (see `audit_output_schema.md#domain-aware-worker-output`).
Use `hex-graph` first when hotspots materially improve coverage-gap discovery. Use `hex-line` first for local code and test reads when available. If MCP is unavailable, unsupported, or not indexed, continue with built-in `Read/Grep/Glob/Bash` and state the fallback in the report.
## Workflow
**MANDATORY READ:** Load `shared/references/two_layer_detection.md` for detection methodology.
1) **Parse context** -- extract fields, determine `scan_path` (domain-aware if specified)
ELSE:
scan_path = codebase_root
domain_name = null
```
2) **Identify critical paths in scan_path** (not entire codebase)
- Scan production code in `scan_path` for money/security/data keywords
- All Grep/Glob patterns use `scan_path` (not codebase_root)
- Example: `Grep(pattern="payment|refund|discount", path=scan_path)`
3) **Check test coverage for each critical path (Layer 1)**
- Search ALL test files for coverage (tests may be in different location than production code)
- Match by function name, module name, or test description
3b) **Context Analysis (Layer 2 -- MANDATORY):** For each gap candidate, ask:
- Is this function already covered by E2E/integration test? -> **downgrade to LOW**
- Is this a helper function with <10 lines called from tested code? -> **skip**
- Is keyword match a false positive (e.g., `paymentIcon()` is UI, not payment logic)? -> **skip**
4) **Collect missing tests**
- Tag each finding with `domain: domain_name` (if domain-aware)
5) **Calculate Score:** Count violations by severity, calculate compliance score (X/10)
6) **Write Report:** Build full markdown report in memory per `shared/templates/audit_worker_report_template.md`, write to `{output_dir}/ln-634--{identifier}.md` (or `{output_dir}/ln-634--{identifier}.md` if domain-aware) in single Write call
7) **Return Summary:** Return minimal summary to coordinator (see Output Format)
## Critical Paths Classification
### 1. Money Flows (Priority 20+)
**What:** Any code handling financial transactions
**Examples:**
- Payment processing (`/payment`, `processPayment()`)
- Discounts/promotions (`calculateDiscount()`, `applyPromoCode()`)
- Tax calculations (`calculateTax()`, `getTaxRate()`)
- Refunds (`processRefund()`, `/refund`)
- Invoices/billing (`generateInvoice()`, `createBill()`)
- Currency conversion (`convertCurrency()`)
**Min Priority:** 20
**Why Critical:** Money loss, fraud, legal compliance
### 2. Security Flows (Priority 20+)
**What:** Authentication, authorization, encryption
**Examples:**
- Login/logout (`/login`, `authenticate()`)
- Token refresh (`/refresh-token`, `refreshAccessToken()`)
- Password reset (`/forgot-password`, `resetPassword()`)
- Permissions/RBAC (`checkPermission()`, `hasRole()`)
- Encryption/hashing (custom crypto logic, NOT bcrypt/argon2)
- API key validation (`validateApiKey()`)
**Min Priority:** 20
**Why Critical:** Security breach, data leak, unauthorized access
### 3. Data Integrity (Priority 15+)
**What:** CRUD operations, transactions, validation
**Examples:**
- Critical CRUD (`createUser()`, `deleteOrder()`, `updateProduct()`)
- Database transactions (`withTransaction()`)
- Data validation (custom validators, NOT framework defaults)
- Data migrations (`runMigration()`)
- Unique constraints (`checkDuplicateEmail()`)
**Min Priority:** 15
**Why Critical:** Data corruption, lost data, inconsistent state
### 4. Core User Journeys (Priority 15+)
**What:** Multi-step flows critical to business
**Examples:**
- Registration -> Email verification -> Onboarding
- Search -> Product details -> Add to cart -> Checkout
- Upload file -> Process -> Download result
- Submit form -> Approval workflow -> Notification
**Min Priority:** 15
**Why Critical:** Broken user flow = lost customers
## Audit Rules
### 1. Identify Critical Paths
**Process:**
- Scan codebase for money-related keywords: `payment`, `refund`, `discount`, `tax`, `price`, `currency`
- Scan for security keywords: `auth`, `login`, `password`, `token`, `permission`, `encrypt`
- Scan for data keywords: `transaction`, `validation`, `migration`, `constraint`
- Scan for user journeys: multi-step flows in routes/controllers
### 2. Check Test Coverage
**For each critical path:**
- Search test files for matching test name/description
- If NO test found -> add to missing tests list
- If test found but inadequate (only positive, no edge cases) -> add to gaps list
### 3. Categorize Gaps
**Severity by Priority:**
- **CRITICAL:** Priority 20+ (Money, Security)
- **HIGH:** Priority 15-19 (Data, Core Flows)
- **MEDIUM:** Priority 10-14 (Important but not critical)
- **Downgrade when:** Function already covered by E2E test -> LOW. Helper with <10 lines called from tested code -> skip
### 4. Provide Justification
**For each missing test:**
- Explain WHY it's critical (money loss, security breach, etc.)
- Suggest test type (E2E, Integration, Unit)
- Estimate effort (S/M/L)
## Scoring Algorithm
**MANDATORY READ:** Load `shared/references/audit_worker_core_contract.md` and `shared/references/audit_scoring.md`.
**Severity mapping by Priority:**
- Priority 20+ (Money, Security) missing test -> CRITICAL
- Priority 15-19 (Data Integrity, Core Flows) missing test -> HIGH
- Priority 10-14 (Important) missing test -> MEDIUM
- Priority <10 (Nice-to-have) -> LOW
## Output Format
**MANDATORY READ:** Load `shared/references/audit_worker_core_contract.md` and `shared/templates/audit_worker_report_template.md`.
Write JSON summary per `shared/references/audit_summary_contract.md`. In managed mode the caller passes both `runId` and `summaryArtifactPath`; in standalone mode the worker generates its own run-scoped artifact path per shared contract.
Write report to `{output_dir}/ln-634--{identifier}.md` (global) or `{output_dir}/ln-634--{identifier}.md` (domain-aware) with `category: "Coverage Gaps"` and checks: money_flow_coverage, security_flow_coverage, data_integrity_coverage, core_journey_coverage.
Return summary per `shared/references/audit_summary_contract.md`.
When `summaryArtifactPath` is absent, write the standalone runtime summary under `.hex-skills/runtime-artifacts/runs/{run_id}/evaluation-worker/{worker}--{identifier}.json` and optionally echo the same summary in structured output.
```
Report written: .hex-skills/runtime-artifacts/runs/{run_id}/audit-report/ln-634--{identifier}.md
Score: X.X/10 | Issues: N (C:N H:N M:N L:N)
```
## Critical Rules
**MANDATORY READ:** Load `shared/references/audit_worker_core_contract.md`.
- **Domain-aware scanning:** If `domain_mode="domain-aware"`, scan ONLY `scan_path` production code (not entire codebase)
- **Tag findings:** Include `domain` field in each finding when domain-aware
- **Test search scope:** Search ALL test files for coverage (tests may be in different location than production code)
- **Match by name:** Use function name, module name, or test description to match tests to production code
