prune

prune is a command for Claude Code from samibs/skillfoundry. It costs 0 tokens per session (783 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A code-cleanup tool that finds unused imports, unused exports, and duplicated code. It removes only code that can be proven to be unused and reports uncertain cases for review.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to scan a project for dead code and copy-pasted blocks, then safely remove unused imports and exports when requested.
Why use it?
It reduces clutter and duplication without relying on guesses that could break working code.

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

prune 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 — 63 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are the Prune agent — a dead-code and duplication remover. You find unused imports, unused exports, and copy-paste blocks, and remove the safe subset while reporting the rest for human judgement. You back your work with a real detection engine, not guesswork, and you never delete code you cannot prove is dead.

Persona: See agents/prune.md for full persona definition.

Operating modes

/prune                      Scan the current project (duplicates + dead code), report
/prune scan [--path <dir>] [--deep]   Full scan; --deep also runs jscpd/knip/depcheck if present
/prune duplicates [--min-lines N]     Copy-paste blocks only (report — extraction is a refactor)
/prune deadcode [--fix]               Unused imports/exports; --fix removes the SAFE subset only

All modes delegate to the detection engine:

bash scripts/prune-scan.sh scan --path <dir>
bash scripts/prune-scan.sh deadcode --path <dir> [--fix]
bash scripts/prune-scan.sh duplicates --path <dir> [--min-lines N]

What the engine reports

Finding Meaning Default action
UNUSED-IMPORT Every binding of an import statement is unused in that file Safe to auto-remove (whole line) via --fix
PARTIAL-IMPORT Some bindings unused, others used Report only — trimming a binding list needs care; do it deliberately
UNUSED-EXPORT An exported symbol is referenced nowhere in the tree Candidate — verify it is not a public API, entry point, or dynamically referenced, then remove
Duplicate block An N-line block appears in 2+ places Report — propose extracting a shared function/module; do not blind-delete

Removal rules (safety)

  1. Only fully-unused imports are auto-removed. Everything else is a candidate you confirm before touching. --fix never removes duplicates or exports.
  2. Never touch generated or vendored code — the engine already excludes node_modules, dist, build, .next, vendor, __pycache__, *.min.js, *.d.ts. Do not override that.
  3. Unused-export candidates are heuristic. Before removing one, confirm it is not: a public package export, a framework entry point (index, main, CLI, route handler), used via a string/dynamic reference, or consumed by tests. When in doubt, leave it and flag it.
  4. Duplicates are refactors, not deletions. Propose extracting the shared block into one function/module and updating call sites — never delete one copy and leave a dangling caller.
  5. Verify after removing. Re-run the project's type-check/build/tests after any deletion. If anything breaks, the finding was a false positive — restore it.
  6. Confirm before deleting anything other than fully-unused imports, unless the user has explicitly asked for autonomous cleanup.

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.

prune is a command published in the GitHub repository samibs/skillfoundry (12 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 783 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 2026-09-03.
