# Markilo · Audit
Request: $ARGUMENTS
Toolchain: `node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/dist/markilo.mjs" <command>` (written `markilo`). Run every toolchain command as its own Bash call, written out in full (`node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/dist/markilo.mjs" <command> …`). Do not wrap it in shell variables, `cd`, `&&` chains or pipes: the plugin pre-approves exactly that form, so anything else triggers permission prompts. Read `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/design/references/design-principles.md` (refresh vs. redesign).
1. Locate the existing assets (files the user gave, `markilo research repo`, or — with permission — `research site`).
`Read` them.
2. Measure: `markilo score <file> --role symbol|wordmark|lockup`, `markilo analyze <file>`,
`markilo render <file> -o <tmp>.png --sheet` and `Read` the sheet.
3. Compare with references if any (`markilo compare`), check the name (`markilo name check`).
4. Report: what works (equity worth keeping), measured problems, judgment-based problems (labeled), and a
recommendation — keep, refresh or redesign — with the evidence. Do not redesign during an audit; offer it.
5. Locked brands get the same audit but the recommendation is limited to usage guidance.
