optimize-code

optimize-code is a command for Claude Code from TheLobbi/claude. It costs 0 tokens per session (348 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A code analysis and optimization command that looks for inefficient algorithms, memory use, database queries, network and file operations, and frontend rendering work.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review application code for slow algorithms, memory leaks, inefficient database access, unnecessary API calls, or avoidable frontend work.
Why use it?
It helps locate code that is slow, wasteful, or difficult to scale instead of relying only on guesswork. It also suggests changes such as caching, batching, lazy loading, and more efficient algorithms.

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

optimize-code 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

Performance Optimization

Analyze and optimize code for performance, efficiency, and scalability:

Performance Analysis

  1. Algorithm Complexity

    • Identify O(n²) or worse time complexity
    • Suggest more efficient algorithms
    • Review recursive vs iterative approaches
    • Optimize sorting and searching operations
  2. Memory Usage

    • Identify memory leaks
    • Check for unnecessary object creation
    • Review data structure choices
    • Optimize large data handling
  3. Database Optimization

    • Review query efficiency (N+1 queries)
    • Check for missing indexes
    • Optimize JOIN operations
    • Review connection pooling
  4. Network & I/O

    • Identify blocking operations
    • Review async/await usage
    • Check for unnecessary API calls
    • Optimize file I/O operations
  5. Rendering Performance (Frontend)

    • Review re-render triggers
    • Check for unnecessary component updates
    • Optimize list rendering (virtualization)
    • Review bundle size and code splitting

Optimization Strategies

  • Caching (memoization, HTTP caching, database caching)
  • Lazy loading and code splitting
  • Debouncing and throttling
  • Batch operations
  • Parallel processing where applicable
  • Resource pooling (connections, threads)

Output Format

For each optimization opportunity:

  1. Location: File and line number
  2. Current Issue: What's inefficient
  3. Impact: Performance cost (time/memory)
  4. Optimization: Specific improvement
  5. Expected Gain: Estimated performance improvement
  6. Trade-offs: Any complexity or maintainability costs

Prioritize optimizations by potential impact vs implementation effort.

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.

optimize-code is a command published in the GitHub repository TheLobbi/claude (21 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 348 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 2026-09-05.
