I just tried this on some code that I wrote for a personal application today and it blew my mind. At first I was going through just doing a simplification and then I asked it to do orthogonal audit. And it just kept going, finding, and fixing things for almost 10 minutes. Incredible stuff
I made a Claude skill and put it up on GitHub: https://github.com/tennyson-mccalla/orthogonal-audit

Super, real glad it's helpful. Thanks for building this and for the careful citation. Personal and non-commercial use is explicitly encouraged — that's in the paper's header. For anyone building commercial tooling on top of the method (IDE plugins, SaaS audit products, enterprise dev tools), the approach is patent-pending as of April 5 — licensing is available, reach out at [email protected]. Genuinely glad to see it running on real code. Would love to hear what surfaces it found.
