Legacy codebases accumulate unused code that nobody dares to delete because it might be reached through dynamic entry points like reflection, routes, events, or feature flags. This Skill removes dead code safely by requiring formal proof of death before any deletion, and by distinguishing truly dead code from suspicious orphans that should be kept.
soul.md; code implementing a confirmed rule is never removed, even if it appears unused.CHG-NNN.diff files.Ask the agent to run /reversa-prune on a specific opportunity or target after the reversa-refactor context has been initialized.
High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.
Run the prune agent on a target or opportunity; it scans all usages, checks dynamic entry points like routes and reflection, and only removes code proven dead. Every removal requires your approval of a diff with per-snippet proof attached.
Code is dead only when it has zero static references in a complete usage scan and no known dynamic entry point such as events, reflection, meta-programming, string loading, config, cron, or feature flags. Anything uncertain is classified as a suspicious orphan and never removed.
Yes, every removal is recorded as a CHG-NNN.diff file in the transformation folder, making the change fully reversible. The agent also runs the test suite when available and reports the green output as confirmation.
No, it aborts with an instruction to run /reversa-refactor first if the _reversa_refactor directory does not exist. It depends on that context for control mode, opportunities, and the opportunity schema.
Code implementing a confirmed business rule from soul.md is never treated as dead, even without visible usage, because it may be a temporarily disconnected path. Such code is reported as a suspicious orphan with the rule it serves.
