High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.
Invoke the review on a diff and it returns one line per finding: location, a tag (delete, stdlib, native, yagni, shrink), what to cut, and what replaces it. It ends with a net line-reduction estimate for the change.
It finds hand-rolled utilities the standard library already ships, dependencies duplicating native platform features, abstractions with a single implementation, dead code, and verbose logic that has a shorter equivalent form.
No. It is scoped exclusively to complexity. Correctness bugs, security holes, and performance problems belong to a normal review pass, which this Skill explicitly complements rather than replaces.
No. It only lists findings with locations and replacements; it does not modify the code. You apply the cuts yourself or hand the findings to a separate editing step.
Skip it when the diff is still exploratory or when you need correctness, security, or performance feedback, since those are out of scope. It is most useful on near-final diffs where simplification is the goal.
nearaiAnalyze GitHub pull requests or local diffs for bugs, security issues, and missing tests.
Base-AnaliticaAudits an entire codebase for over-engineering and ranks deletable or simplifiable code.
RightNow-AIAnalyze source code for bugs, security vulnerabilities, and performance regressions.
mklozAnalyze JavaScript and TypeScript codebases for dead code, duplication, complexity, and security candidates.
