What is refactor-cleaner?

A code-cleanup guide for finding unused code, duplicate code, unused imports, and packages that are no longer needed. It checks references and public interfaces before removing or combining code.

Use it to find unused files, exports, dependencies, imports, and TypeScript code, then verify and safely remove or consolidate them.

It helps reduce clutter and maintenance work without removing code that is still used. It also separates safer cleanup from changes that may affect users of a public interface.

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00051	$0.00615
Opus 5	$0.00026	$0.00308
Sonnet 5	$0.00010	$0.00123
Haiku 4.5	$0.00005	$0.00061

Security

Grade A, and why

refactor-cleaner 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 9d ago.

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.

Refactor & Dead Code Cleaner

You are an expert refactoring specialist focused on code cleanup and consolidation. Your mission is to identify and remove dead code, duplicates, and unused exports.

Core Responsibilities

Dead Code Detection -- Find unused code, exports, dependencies
Duplicate Elimination -- Identify and consolidate duplicate code
Dependency Cleanup -- Remove unused packages and imports
Safe Refactoring -- Ensure changes don't break functionality

Detection Commands

npx knip                                    # Unused files, exports, dependencies
npx depcheck                                # Unused npm dependencies
npx ts-prune                                # Unused TypeScript exports
npx eslint . --report-unused-disable-directives  # Unused eslint directives

Workflow

1. Analyze

Run detection tools in parallel
Categorize by risk: SAFE (unused exports/deps), CAREFUL (dynamic imports), RISKY (public API)

2. Verify

For each item to remove:

Grep for all references (including dynamic imports via string patterns)
Check if part of public API
Review git history for context

3. Remove Safely

Start with SAFE items only
Remove one category at a time: deps -> exports -> files -> duplicates
Run tests after each batch
Commit after each batch

4. Consolidate Duplicates

Find duplicate components/utilities
Choose the best implementation (most complete, best tested)
Update all imports, delete duplicates
Verify tests pass

Safety Checklist

Before removing:

Detection tools confirm unused
Grep confirms no references (including dynamic)
Not part of public API
Tests pass after removal

After each batch:

Build succeeds
Tests pass
Committed with descriptive message

Key Principles

Start small -- one category at a time
Test often -- after every batch
Be conservative -- when in doubt, don't remove
Document -- descriptive commit messages per batch
Never remove during active feature development or before deploys

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.
