I built a skill that audits the UI codebase for Design System consistency and I've been running it monthly — checking for hardcoded hex colors instead of our color tokens, raw elements where we have accessible components, patterns that drift from our guidelines. The first few rounds were genuinely useful. Nothing dramatic — but the kind of quiet drift that accumulates when nobody's watching. A hardcoded color here, a custom dropdown where we have a component for that. Each time the audit surfaces something, I fix it and then update our coding guidelines so the pattern doesn't come back. That second part surprised me — the guidelines are getting sharper each month because the audit keeps finding the gaps. (I VOLUNTARILY RUN DESIGN SYSTEM AUDITS MONTHLY. I KNOW.)
