What problem does it solve?
Code review diffs often accumulate low-value tests that assert implementation details and prose filled with stock phrases, empty framing, and unsupported claims. This Skill systematically identifies and removes that slop from a branch diff before merge.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Behavioral Test Gating: Evaluates every changed test against whether it fails when real user-visible behavior breaks, deleting tests that only check constructor assignment, types, log text, or mock call counts.
- Prose Slop Detection: Scans comments, docstrings, docs, commit messages, and PR text for stock contrasts, bridge phrases, AI vocabulary, and unsupported claims using a pattern-scanning script.
- Design-Level Cleanup: Reviews new files, helpers, flags, and compatibility paths in the diff, removing code whose consumers disappeared.
- Use Case: Before merging a feature branch, run the review to delete a test that only asserts
isinstance on a config object and rewrite a PR description claiming unmeasured speedups.
