Full audit:

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

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

Verification: PASS (local)

go test and go vet pass. Consumer module tests would need separate verification. Fix is correct.
