Code-Health-Check-Prompt is a codebase health audit prompt for people who want a clear view of a project’s condition. It helps you review code quality, spot risk areas, and check for signs of technical debt.
Use it when you want to:
- Review a codebase before changes
- Check code quality in a simple way
- Look for security and maintenance issues
- Prepare for refactoring
- Save time during manual code review
This tool is made for Windows users and works best with:
- Windows 10 or Windows 11
- A web browser
- Access to the internet
- A text editor if you want to copy the prompt into notes
- A prompt tool or AI assistant if you plan to use the audit prompt with one
No programming knowledge is needed. You only need to download the release files and open the prompt in the tool you use.

On that page, look for the latest release and download the file that fits your setup. If there is a .zip file, download that file and extract it first. If there is a ready-to-use text file, download it and open it in your editor or prompt tool.
- Open the download page in your browser.
- Find the latest release.
- Download the file from that release.
- If the file is compressed, right-click it and choose Extract All.
- Open the extracted folder.
- Find the prompt file or instructions file.
- Open the file in Notepad, WordPad, or your preferred editor.
- Copy the prompt into the AI tool or workflow you use for code review.
- Open the prompt file.
- Paste it into your AI assistant or review tool.
- Add the codebase, folder list, or notes you want checked.
- Ask for a health audit of the project.
- Review the results and use them to plan fixes.
You can use it for:
- Small apps
- Large codebases
- Old projects with build issues
- Projects with unclear structure
- Teams that want a faster review process
This prompt is built for broad codebase review. It can help you look at:
- Code quality
- File structure
- Repeated code
- Security concerns
- Error handling
- Test coverage
- Naming and clarity
- Signs of technical debt
- Refactoring needs
- Maintainability
It also fits common developer topics like:
- Static analysis
- Code review
- Code analytics
- Software engineering checks
- Prompt engineering for audits
- Developer productivity
If the release includes a prompt file and notes, keep them in a simple folder like this:
Code-Health-Check-PromptPromptREADMEExamples
This makes it easier to find the file when you need it again.
For best results:
- Use the latest release
- Keep the prompt text in one place
- Save a copy before editing it
- Use the same prompt for each audit
- Add short notes about the project before running the review
If you want a cleaner process, create a small text file with:
- Project name
- Main goal
- Known problems
- Areas you want checked first
You can use Code-Health-Check-Prompt when:
- A project feels messy and hard to read
- You want to review a repository before handing it off
- You need a quick view of weak spots
- You want to plan cleanup work
- You want a simple check before a release
Example request you can give the tool:
- Review this codebase for code quality issues, security risks, and technical debt.
- Focus on structure, repeated logic, error handling, and missing tests.
- List the most important issues first.
- Suggest practical fixes for each issue.
This prompt can help surface common security risks such as:
- Hardcoded secrets
- Weak input checks
- Missing validation
- Unsafe file handling
- Poor access control
- Old dependencies
- Risky code paths
It does not replace a full security review, but it gives you a strong first pass.
Use the prompt when you need help with:
- Breaking large files into smaller parts
- Removing duplicate logic
- Improving naming
- Cleaning up old code paths
- Making the project easier to maintain
This is useful when a codebase works but feels hard to change.
To get a better audit:
- Use clear project notes
- Share the main folder structure
- Include known bugs
- Mention the parts that matter most
- Ask for ranked findings
The more context you give, the more useful the review will be.
No extra install is needed for the prompt itself. You only need the release file and a tool that can use the prompt.
