What problem does it solve? Code reviews under deadline or line-count pressure often delete essential safety mechanisms by mistaking them for bloat. This Skill provides an independent complexity audit that distinguishes accidental complexity from essential safety complexity before a plan is accepted or a diff is merged. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Two-pass audit: Runs a deletion-pressure pass to find duplicate logic, unused fields, and speculative abstractions, then a safety-preservation rebuttal that challenges every proposed deletion against identity, consent, privacy, budget, and authority boundaries. - Snapshot-bound classification: Binds the review to an immutable commit, diff digest, or frozen plan, and classifies every proposal as keep, delete, defer, or remediate. - Remediation loop control: Treats remediated candidates as new candidates requiring re-review, never waving through unseen changes based on a passing test suite. - Use Case: A reviewer is asked to cut a 2,000-line diff down to 500 lines before release. The Skill audits each proposed deletion, rejects cuts that weaken trust-boundary controls, and emits a keep/delete/defer/remediate report tied to the exact snapshot reviewed. ## Quick Start Ask the AI to review this diff for overengineering and flag any proposed deletion that would weaken a safety or trust-boundary property.
