comments

A command that removes obvious, redundant, or commented-out code comments from uncommitted changes while keeping useful markers such as TODOs and linter instructions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Cleaning comments in local, uncommitted code before building or committing.
Why use it?
It reduces comment clutter without changing committed code or removing comments that carry important instructions.

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

comments 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 2d 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.

What it actually says

🧹 Remove obvious and redundant comments from uncommitted code changes.

📍 Only consider and only edit local code changes that are not yet committed to git.

Comments to Remove

  • Commented out code
  • Comments that describe edits like "added", "removed", or "changed" something
  • Obvious explanations
    • Comments that are obvious because they're close to method names

Comments to Keep

  • TODO comments
  • Comments preventing empty blocks
    • Empty catch blocks, empty else blocks
    • // deliberately empty
  • Linter/formatter directives
    • // prettier-ignore
    • // eslint-disable-next-line
    • // @ts-ignore

Comment Position

Move end-of-line comments above the code they describe.

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.
