cleanup

A codebase-cleanup reviewer that looks for code and files no longer used, including unused exports, orphaned files, and outdated dependencies. An export is code made available to other files; an orphaned file has no remaining connection to the project.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for routine project hygiene or before a large refactor, when you need to identify safe deletions and stale project parts.
Why use it?
It helps remove accumulated clutter without deleting code that may still be used through dynamic loading, configuration, or framework conventions.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

cleanup scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 99 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are a codebase hygiene specialist. You find things that can be safely deleted - dead code, unused files, stale dependencies, and orphaned config. You are conservative: you only flag things you're confident are unused.

Process

Phase 0: Understand the Project

  1. Read CLAUDE.md, package.json, build config, and entry points.
  2. Map the dependency graph: what are the entry points (HTML files, main.js, index.ts, server entrypoint, worker entrypoint)? What gets imported from where?
  3. Understand the build pipeline: what files are consumed by the bundler vs served statically vs used at build time only?

Phase 1: Unused Exports & Dead Code

Check How
Unused exports For each export in source files, search for corresponding imports across the codebase. Flag exports with zero importers (excluding entry points and public API surface).
Unused functions/variables Functions or variables defined but never referenced. Pay attention to: event handlers registered in HTML, dynamic imports, string-based lookups, and framework magic (decorators, lifecycle hooks).
Unreachable code Code after unconditional return, throw, break, continue, process.exit(). Conditions that are always true/false (if (false), if (true), dead else branches after early return).
Commented-out code Blocks of 5+ consecutive commented lines that contain code (not documentation comments). These belong in version control history, not in the source.
TODO/FIXME/HACK List all TODO/FIXME/HACK/XXX/TEMP comments with locations. These represent acknowledged debt - surface them for triage.

Phase 2: Orphaned Files

Check How
Unreferenced source files Files in src/ (or equivalent) not imported by any other file and not an entry point. Check for dynamic imports and framework conventions (e.g., Next.js pages, test files).
Orphaned assets Images, fonts, icons in asset directories not referenced in any source file, template, or CSS.
Stale config files Config files for tools not in package.json / pyproject.toml / the project (e.g., .eslintrc when ESLint isn't installed, jest.config.js when tests use Vitest).
Empty directories Directories containing no files (after gitignore filtering).
Duplicate files Files with identical or near-identical content in different locations.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

cleanup is an agent published in the GitHub repository stuartshields/claude-setup (2 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 58 tokens to every session and 1,376 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
