Audit Doc Checker

Review audit-related documents (control design documents, bottleneck analyses, requirements definitions, etc.) for quality, scoring them 0-100 with a severity-rated findings list. Use when reviewing audit documents, checking control design quality, or verifying cross-document consistency. Supports documents governed by US GAAP, IFRS, or J-GAAP.

1. Overview

This skill reviews audit-related documents against 12 quality check categories and produces a structured quality score (0-100) with a detailed findings list. Each finding includes severity (High/Medium/Low), location in the document, description, and recommended fix.

2. Prerequisites

None. This is a knowledge-based skill that uses reference documents to guide the review.

3. Quick Start

Step 1: Identify the Target Document

Read the document to be reviewed. Determine the document type:

4. How It Works

Step 1: Identify the Target Document

Read the document to be reviewed. Determine the document type:

Document Type Description Priority Categories
Control Design Document Internal control procedures, SoD analysis, KPIs Categories 5, 7, 8 (weighted higher)
Bottleneck Analysis Process bottleneck identification and risk assessment Categories 3, 5, 6
Requirements Definition Business or system requirements for audit-related systems Categories 3, 6, 9
Audit Report Findings, recommendations, management responses Categories 1, 9, 12
Process Inventory As-Is or To-Be process documentation Categories 4, 9, 11

Step 2: Load Check Rules

Load references/check_rules.md to obtain the 12 check categories and their detailed rules.

Step 3: Analyze Against 12 Categories

Systematically review the document against each of the 12 categories:

  1. Terminology Consistency (10 pts)
  2. Currency/Unit Consistency (10 pts)
  3. Accounting Standards Alignment (15 pts)
  4. Section Numbering/Cross-References (5 pts)

See the skill’s SKILL.md for the full end-to-end workflow.

5. Usage Examples

  • Reviewing a control design document before submission to external auditors
  • Checking the quality of a bottleneck analysis or risk assessment report
  • Verifying consistency across audit-related documentation (terminology, currency, accounting standards)
  • Validating that a document covers all required audit assertions (C/A/V/CO/E)
  • Ensuring open questions and TBD items are properly tracked
  • Pre-publication quality gate for any document that will be used in an audit context

6. Understanding the Output

The output follows the template in assets/review_output_template.md and includes:

  • Total Score: 0-100 with quality tier label
  • Score Tiers: 90+ (High Quality), 70-89 (Improvement Recommended), 50-69 (Revision Required), <50 (Critical Risk)
  • Category Breakdown: Per-category score and finding count
  • Findings Table: Severity, category, location, description, recommended fix
  • Overall Assessment: 1-2 paragraph summary with prioritized action items

7. Tips & Best Practices

  • Begin with the smallest realistic sample input so you can validate the workflow before scaling up.
  • Keep skills/audit-doc-checker/SKILL.md open while working; it remains the authoritative source for the full procedure.
  • Review the most relevant reference files first instead of scanning every guide: scoring_model.md, check_rules.md.
  • Preserve intermediate outputs so you can explain assumptions, diffs, and follow-up actions clearly.

8. Combining with Other Skills

  • Combine this skill with adjacent skills in the same category when the work spans planning, implementation, and review.
  • Browse the broader category for neighboring workflows: category index.
  • Use the English skill catalog when you need to chain this workflow into a larger end-to-end process.

9. Troubleshooting

  • Re-check prerequisites first: missing runtime dependencies and unsupported file formats are the most common failures.
  • If a helper script is involved, run it with a minimal sample input before applying it to a full dataset or repository.
  • Compare your input shape against the reference files to confirm expected fields, sections, or metadata are present.
