What is considered a 'safe tidying' in this skill?

A safe tidying is a small, independent code change that improves readability or structure without altering the functional behavior of the software, such as removing dead code or adding guard clauses.

How does the skill ensure suggestions are still relevant?

The skill performs a diff check between the original commit and the current HEAD to ensure the code in question hasn't been significantly modified or moved before suggesting a tidying.

Can I run this on specific branches other than the current one?

Yes, the skill accepts an optional branch argument, allowing you to suggest tidying opportunities for any specific development or feature branch.

Does Safe Code Tidyings automatically apply changes to my files?

No, it analyzes your commit history and generates a report of suggestions for you to review, ensuring you maintain full control over your codebase.

Herramientas para Desarrolladores

Analyzes recent git commits to identify behavior-preserving code improvements like guard clauses, dead code removal, and better variable naming.

Acerca de

Safe Code Tidyings is a specialized Claude Code skill designed to enhance codebase maintainability by suggesting small, non-functional refactoring opportunities. By scanning recent commit history and utilizing parallel sub-agents to analyze diffs, the skill identifies areas where readability can be improved without changing application logic. It specifically looks for patterns such as simplifying nested conditionals into guard clauses, removing redundant code, and introducing explanatory variables, making it an essential tool for developers during the final cleanup phase of a feature or before a pull request submission.

Características Principales

Support for targeted branch analysis to focus on specific feature sets.
Parallel processing of commit diffs using specialized sub-agents for speed.
Strict adherence to behavior-preserving 'safe' refactoring techniques.
State-verification to ensure suggested tidying regions haven't been modified by later changes.
20 GitHub stars
Automated analysis of recent non-tidying commits to find cleanup opportunities.

Casos de Uso

Preparing a feature branch for peer review by improving code readability.
Identifying and eliminating dead code or redundant logic in recent updates.
Refactoring complex nested blocks into clean guard clauses for better flow.
