- Validate database migration rollback scripts exist and have been tested
- Verify feature flag defaults and ensure kill-switch capability for new features
- Review load balancer and routing configuration for deployment compatibility
- Test rollback procedure end-to-end in a staging environment before release

## Red Flags When Performing Post-Implementation Audits

- **Missing test evidence**: Claims of correctness without test output, logs, or coverage data to back them up
- **Skipped security review**: Authorization, input validation, or data protection areas marked as not applicable without justification
- **No rollback plan**: Deployment proceeds without a documented and tested rollback procedure
- **Untested error paths**: Only happy-path scenarios are covered; exception handling and failure modes are unverified
- **Environment drift**: Test environment differs materially from production in configuration, data, or dependencies
- **Untracked technical debt**: Implementation shortcuts are taken without being documented for future remediation
- **Silent failures**: Error conditions are swallowed or logged at a low level without alerting or metric emission
- **Incomplete stakeholder communication**: Impacted teams, support, or customers are not informed of behavioral changes

## Output (TODO Only)

Write the full self-audit (readiness assessment, evidence log, and follow-ups) to `TODO_post-impl-audit.md` only. Do not create any other files.

## Output Format (Task-Based)

Every finding or recommendation must include a unique Task ID and be expressed as a trackable checklist item.

In `TODO_post-impl-audit.md`, include:

### Executive Summary
- Overall readiness assessment (Ready/Not Ready/Conditional)
- Most critical gaps identified
- Risk level distribution (Critical/High/Medium/Low)
- Immediate action items
- Go/No-Go recommendation

### Detailed Findings

Use checkboxes and stable IDs (e.g., `AUDIT-FIND-1.1`):

- [ ] **AUDIT-FIND-1.1 [Issue Title]**:
  - **Evidence**: Test output, logs, or code reference
  - **Impact**: User or system impact
  - **Severity**: Critical/High/Medium/Low
  - **Recommendation**: Specific next action
  - **Status**: Open/Blocked/Resolved/Mitigated
  - **Owner**: Responsible person or team
  - **Verification**: How to confirm resolution
  - **Timeline**: When resolution is expected

### Remediation Recommendations

Use checkboxes and stable IDs (e.g., `AUDIT-REM-1.1`):

- [ ] **AUDIT-REM-1.1 [Remediation Title]**:
  - **Category**: Immediate/Short-term/Long-term
  - **Description**: Specific remediation action
  - **Dependencies**: Prerequisites and coordination requirements
  - **Validation Steps**: Verification steps for the remediation
  - **Release Impact**: Whether this blocks the release

### Effort & Priority Assessment
- **Implementation Effort**: Development time estimation (hours/days/weeks)
- **Complexity Level**: Simple/Moderate/Complex based on technical requirements
- **Dependencies**: Prerequisites and coordination requirements
- **Priority Score**: Combined risk and effort matrix for prioritization
- **Release Impact**: Whether this blocks the release

### Proposed Code Changes
- Provide patch-style diffs (preferred) or clearly labeled file blocks.
- Include any required helpers as part of the proposal.

### Commands
- Exact commands to run locally and in CI (if applicable)

## Quality Assurance Task Checklist

Before finalizing, verify:

### Verification Discipline
- [ ] Test evidence is present and verifiable for every audited area
- [ ] Missing coverage is explicitly called out with risk assessment
- [ ] Minimal reproduction steps are included for critical issues
- [ ] Evidence quality is clear, convincing, and timestamped

### Actionable Recommendations
- [ ] All fixes are testable, realistic, and scoped appropriately
- [ ] Security and correctness issues are prioritized over cosmetic changes
- [ ] Staging or canary verification is required when applicable
- [ ] Fallback options are provided when primary fix carries risk

### Risk Contextualization
- [ ] Gaps that block deployment are highlighted as release blockers
- [ ] User-visible behavior impacts are prioritized
- [ ] On-call and support impact is documented
- [ ] Regression risk from the changes is assessed

## Additional Task Focus Areas

### Release Safety
- **Rollback Readiness**: Assess ability to rollback safely
- **Rollout Strategy**: Review rollout and monitoring plan
- **Feature Flags**: Evaluate feature flag usage for safe rollout
- **Phased Rollout**: Assess phased rollout capability
- **Monitoring Plan**: Verify monitoring is in place for release

### Post-Release Considerations
- **Monitoring Windows**: Define monitoring windows after release
- **Success Criteria**: Define success criteria for the release
- **Contingency Plans**: Document contingency plans if issues arise
- **Support Readiness**: Verify support team is prepared
- **Customer Impact**: Assess customer impact of issues

## Execution Reminders

Good post-implementation self-audits:
- Are evidence-based, not opinion-based; every claim is backed by test output, logs, or code references
- Cover all dimensions: correctness, security, performance, operability, and documentation
- Distinguish between release-blocking issues and advisory improvements
- Provide a clear Go/No-Go recommendation with explicit conditions
- Include remediation actions that are specific, testable, and prioritized by risk
- Maintain full traceability from requirements through implementation to verification evidence

Please begin the self-audit, focusing on evidence-backed verification and release readiness.
