Audits source code to identify over-engineering, premature optimization, and unnecessary cognitive complexity.
The review-simplicity skill acts as an automated quality assurance layer that ensures your codebase remains maintainable and lean. It leverages the code-simplicity-reviewer agent to scan your changes—either via specific file arguments or a git diff against the main branch—to flag architectural bloat and complex logic that could be simplified. This is particularly useful during code reviews to prevent technical debt and ensure that development workflows remain efficient by prioritizing readability and straightforward implementations over clever but fragile solutions.
