# Crucible Audit

> Forensic test-quality audit that detects test fraud — hollow assertions, coverage-omit gaming, mock proliferation, dead/gated tests, untested entry points, and README badge inflation that produce false green signals. Use when asked to "run a CRUCIBLE audit", "check/audit test quality", "find silent failures", "find hollow tests", "audit assertions/mocks/coverage config", "why do tests pass but nothing works", or before any release gate (pre-publish/pre-deploy) when a high test count or coverage % needs verifying against reality.
