# Cladding check
Run `clad check` from the project root. Runs the 13 Iron Law stages — Type / Lint / Drift / Commit / Arch / Secret / Unit / Coverage / Smoke / Performance / Visual / Audit / UAT — and aggregates the worst exit code.
- `0` — every stage cleared or skipped clean.
- `1` — at least one stage actually failed (fix-required).
- `2` — every result is skip (no fail-required input on the project yet).
`--strict` promotes warn-severity drift findings to error, matching the CI / pre-publish gate. The Drift stage runs every active detector under `src/stages/detectors/` (24/24 as of v0.3.40 — `npm run build:plugin` Phase D recounts and writes the integer into `.claude-plugin/plugin.json`).
`--internal` shows stage codes (`stage_1.1`) instead of business names (`Type`). Default is the business-name surface; the audit log keeps internal ids regardless.
