make-it-pretty

A code-cleanup command for making source code easier to read while keeping its behavior unchanged.

In plain words
What is it for?
Renaming code elements, simplifying logic, extracting functions, removing redundancy, and checking that functionality remains the same.
Why use it?
It addresses unclear names, complicated structure, repeated code, and other readability problems.

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

make-it-pretty 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 3d 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.

Make It Pretty

I'll improve code readability while preserving exact functionality.

Strategic Thinking Process

  1. Code Analysis

    • What makes this code "ugly" or hard to read?
    • Are there complex nested structures that need simplification?
    • Is the naming unclear or inconsistent?
    • Are there repeated patterns that could be abstracted?
  2. Safety Considerations

    • Which changes are purely cosmetic (safe)?
    • Which might affect behavior (risky)?
    • Are there implicit dependencies on current structure?
    • Could renaming break external references?
  3. Improvement Strategy

    • Priority 1: Clear naming (variables, functions, files)
    • Priority 2: Reduce complexity (extract functions, simplify logic)
    • Priority 3: Remove redundancy (DRY principle)
    • Priority 4: Improve type safety (if applicable)
  4. Validation Approach

    • How can I ensure functionality remains identical?
    • What tests exist to verify behavior?
    • Should I add temporary logging to verify flow?

Based on this analysis, I'll proceed safely:

Safety First:

  • Create git checkpoint before changes
  • Use Write tool to create backups
  • Track all modifications systematically

I'll identify files to beautify based on:

  • Files you specify, or if none specified, analyze the entire application
  • Recently modified code
  • Our conversation context

Improvements I'll Make:

  • Variable and function names for clarity
  • Code organization and structure
  • Remove unused code and clutter
  • Simplify complex expressions
  • Group related functionality
  • Fix loose or generic type declarations
  • Add missing type annotations where supported
  • Make types more specific based on usage

My Approach:

  1. Analyze current code patterns and type usage
  2. Apply consistent naming conventions
  3. Improve type safety where applicable
  4. Reorganize for better readability
  5. Remove redundancy without changing logic

Quality Assurance:

  • All functionality remains identical
  • Tests continue to pass (if available)
  • No behavior changes occur
  • Clear commit messages for changes

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.

make-it-pretty is a command published in the GitHub repository brennercruvinel/CCPlugins (2,780 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 513 tokens. 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 2026-08-30.
