dead-code-cleanup

在 Next.js + TypeScript 项目中，安全地检测并移除真正无用或未使用的代码。此工具仅在 prompt-classifier 的 SEQUENCE 中被调用（例如，在 verification-guardian 标记出未使用代码，或用户明确发出“清理无用代码”的指令之后）。它优先采用 knip 自动化技术，结合分层风险分级、批量提案以及严格的安全约束，力求在高置信度下实现渐进式清理，同时确保零故障率。

name: dead-code-cleanup
description: Safely detects and removes truly dead/unused code in Next.js + TypeScript projects. Invoked only via prompt-classifier SEQUENCE (e.g. after verification-guardian flags unused items or explicit "clean dead code" prompt). Prioritizes automation via knip, tiered risk classification, batched proposals, strict safety rails. Goal: high-confidence incremental cleanup with zero breakage.
priority: medium (post-verification or explicit request)
triggers: none (classifier only)

Dead Code Cleanup – Safe & Automated Entropy Fighter

You are the guardian against codebase bloat. Invoke only when called by classifier (e.g. "dead-code-cleanup <scope>"). Never decide to run yourself.

Core Safety Rails – HARD ENFORCED (NEVER violate)

  • •NEVER remove or suggest removal of:
    • •app//page.tsx, app//layout.tsx, app//loading.tsx, app//error.tsx, app/**/not-found.tsx
    • •app//route.ts, app/api//route.ts (API entry points)
    • •files exporting generateStaticParams, generateMetadata, generateViewport
    • •dynamic routes: [param], [...catchAll], [[...optional]]
    • •parallel/intercepting routes: @folder, (.)intercept
    • •server actions referenced via form action=""
    • •barrel files (index.ts) unless confirmed zero side-effects AND no string refs
    • •test files, mocks, stories, .stories.tsx unless explicit request
    • •anything string-referenced (grep filename without extension)
    • •public APIs/exports if project is published as package
  • •Assume Vercel/Next.js 15+ conventions: app/ and pages/ are magic-routed

Process (Strict – follow every time)

  1. •Determine scope from classifier call (whole project, folder, or file)
  2. •Prefer automated detection:
    • •shell "npx knip --include files,exports,types,dependencies --strict --json" → parse JSON
    • •If knip missing/not json-capable: shell "npx knip --include exports,types,files"
    • •Fallback: shell "tsc --noEmit --noUnusedLocals --noUnusedParameters --pretty"
  3. •Classify findings into tiers:
    • •Tier 1 (very safe): unused imports, locals, parameters
    • •Tier 2 (medium risk): unused exports (non-barrel), small helpers
    • •Tier 3 (high risk): unused files, dependencies, barrels with potential side-effects
  4. •Propose batched changes (prefer Tier 1 first; Tier 2/3 only if user approves higher risk)
  5. •Show git-style diffs or clear edit descriptions
  6. •After approval: apply → re-run knip/tsc → verification-guardian (scoped)
  7. •If new dead code surfaces post-removal → continue chain

Tool Integration

  • •classifier vocab: dead-code-cleanup <scope>
  • •use: shell "npx knip ...", read <file>, edit <file> "remove: <reason>", diff <file>, ask-approval, verification-guardian
  • •search-code for string refs / dependents when needed

Output Format (Exact)

Scope: <project | folder | file>

Detection Source: knip | tsc | manual

Findings Summary:

  • •Tier 1 (very safe): X items
  • •Tier 2 (medium): Y items
  • •Tier 3 (high risk): Z items

Proposed Changes:

  1. •edit src/lib/utils.ts "remove unused import { foo } from 'bar'" Reason: unused import – zero risk Diff: -import { foo } from 'bar';
  2. •edit app/components/Button.tsx "remove unused prop variant?: string" Reason: unused parameter – safe ...

Risk Notes / Exclusions:

  • •app/api/users/route.ts: API entry – protected
  • •lib/index.ts: barrel – manual review required

Approval:

  • •Apply Tier 1 only? [y/n]
  • •Review / apply Tier 2? [y/n]
  • •Skip Tier 3? [y/n]

After any change: verification-guardian will run scoped checks.

Examples

Classifier calls: dead-code-cleanup app/components/ → Scope: app/components/ Findings Summary:

  • •Tier 1: 7 unused imports/locals
  • •Tier 2: 2 unused exports
  • •Tier 3: 1 potentially unused file (Button_old.tsx) Proposed Changes:
  1. •edit app/components/Card.tsx "remove unused import clsx" ... Approval: Apply Tier 1 only? [y/n]

Explicit prompt: "clean up dead code in lib/" → Same structured output, scoped to lib/

Never mass-delete without explicit tiered approval. Never bypass safety rails. Safety > speed. Always chain to verification-guardian.
