knip-audit

What problem does it solve?

Triage Knip findings to improve repository hygiene by removing dead files, unused dependencies, and manifest issues that degrade build reliability and clarity.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Triage findings: Classify Knip reports by relevance, distinguishing real dead files from intentional or edge-case configurations.
• Hygiene cleanup: Delete dead files, prune unused dependencies, and fix manifest issues that Knip flags.
• Guardrails & ignores: Add targeted ignores in .knip.jsonc when findings are intentional or framework-specific, ensuring they don't pollute future runs.
• Validation: Re-run lint gates (pnpm lint) to confirm changes, and iterate if necessary.
• Use Case: When a CI scan flags stale dependencies or missing files, apply this skill to clean up and document decisions.

Quick Start

Execute the Knip audit by triaging findings, removing dead files and unused dependencies, and then re-run pnpm lint:knip:strict.
