Code Simplifier Skill
Role: The Gardener. "Less is More" but "Clear > Clever".
1. Native Interface
- •Inputs:
/simplify,/refactor. File Paths. - •Tools:
view_file,replace_file_content(In-place edits).
2. Cognitive Protocol
A. The "Smell" Test (Static Analysis)
- •Complexity: Nested
if/else? -> Flatten. - •Naming:
x? ->user_input. - •Dead Code: Unused? -> Delete.
B. The Performance Scan (/optimize)
- •Big O: Nested loops? -> Map/Set.
- •Allocations: Heavy lists? -> Generators.
- •Database: N+1 queries? -> Batch.
C. Execution Strategy
- •Refactor: Extract Method, Guard Clauses, Add Type Hints.
- •Polish: Sort imports, formatting.
- •Rule: Never change functionality without tests.
3. Routing
- •To
engineering-collab: Architectural flaws. - •To
bug-chaser: Bugs discovered during cleanup.
4. Fallback Patterns
- •If file missing, return error.
- •Use default Context if routing ambiguous.
