Full audit:

Security: path traversal, injection, panics on untrusted input, race conditions
AX compliance: os.Getenv → core.Env, filepath.* → core.Path*, fmt.Sprintf → core.Sprintf, strings.* → core.*, errors.New/fmt.Errorf → core.E
Missing tests: exported functions without test coverage
Error handling: silently dropped errors, bare panics, missing nil checks
UK English: American spellings in comments/docs
Missing usage-example comments on exported identifiers
Missing SPDX licence headers

Report all findings with severity and file:line. Do NOT fix.

Spark Audit Findings

HIGH (1)

TLS verification disabled in embed-bench HTTP client — MITM risk (cmd/embed-bench/main.go:223)

MEDIUM — Security (5)

API path injection via unsanitized target strings (cmd/security/cmd_security.go:138, cmd_alerts.go:301)
Malformed securityTarget parsing (cmd_jobs.go:70)
Registry path from CLI unsandboxed (cmd_security.go:109)
Metrics reads unsynchronized with writes — race (ai/metrics.go:51, :88)

MEDIUM — AX Compliance (4)

fmt.Sprintf in 4+ files
filepath.* in ai/metrics.go
os.Getenv in tests
strings.* in security commands

MEDIUM — Missing Tests (5)

QueryRAGForTask, AddRAGSubcommands, AddMetricsCommand, AddLabCommands untested
Entire cmd/security package has no tests

MEDIUM — Error Handling (3)

ai.Record errors discarded (cmd_scan.go:117, :208)
JSON encode/decode failures ignored in benchmark
srv.Shutdown return ignored

Verification: FAIL (blocked)

Build fails outside go.work — dappco.re vanity imports use relative replace directives (go.mod:61). go test fails because ../go doesn't exist in isolated checkout. This is a go.work ecosystem issue, not a fix issue.
