deprecated-code-cleanup-skill

deprecated-code-cleanup-skill is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from darellchua2/opencode-config-template. It costs 54 tokens per session (958 once invoked), scanned C, original, Apache-2.0.

A cleanup workflow for finding and safely removing deprecated TypeScript and Next.js code. Deprecated code is code marked as no longer recommended or supported.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to classify unused deprecated files and exports, remove them in phases, and run type checks, linting, and builds during cleanup.
Why use it?
It prevents accidental breakage by tracing imports and re-exports, checking whether code is still reachable, and verifying the project after each removal stage.

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 C, and why

deprecated-code-cleanup-skill scanned grade C with 1 finding 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 1mo 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.

rm -rf with a variable or a broad path is one typo away from removing the wrong tree.

When protocol is enabled, this skill defaults to `Iterations: 10` (sufficient for typical single-pass workflows). Override with `Iterations: N` for specific tasks. Safety blocks: `.env`, `node_modules/`, `rm -rf`, `git p

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 66 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

What I do

Remove @deprecated code from TypeScript/Next.js codebases with dependency-traced, tier-based safety (proven: ~800+ lines removed across ~50 files, zero typecheck/lint errors). Discovery → dependency trace → tier classification → phased removal → verify after every phase.

When to use me

Removing deprecated functions/interfaces/modules; post-migration cleanup; barrel-file audit; pre-release debt removal. Ask when scope is unclear, protected modules exist, or a Tier-3 migration path is preferred.

Prereqs: tsc, npm run lint, npm run build available; clean git tree for rollback.

Phases (strict order; verify after each)

Phase 0 — Discovery & classification (analysis only): grep -rn '@deprecated' src/ --include='*.ts' --include='*.tsx'. For EACH item, trace consumers through ALL import forms — alias (from "@/path"), relative (from "./module" — the most-missed form), dynamic (import(), barrel re-exports (index.ts); JSDoc @see references are comment-only, ignore. Propagate through deprecated chains: if a deprecated item's only consumer is also deprecated, both are dead. Then classify into tiers and verify page.tsx reachability (no active App Router entry may transitively reach it):

Tier Definition Action
1 Zero non-deprecated consumers Delete
2 Consumers exist, all trivially migratable Migrate consumers, then delete
3 Migration-dependent (consumer rework non-trivial) Plan per-item; delete only after migration
4 Public API / externally consumed Keep + document (removal is a semver-major decision)

Phase 1 — Dead files (Tier 1, zero importers): delete file, check for orphaned tests/styles beside it. Phase 2 — Dead exports (from surviving files): remove the export + its local helpers if now unused; leave the file. Phase 3 — Migration-dependent (Tier 3): per item — migrate consumers first, delete in the same phase, never leave consumers importing a deleted symbol. Phase 4 — Barrel audit: index.ts re-exports of deleted symbols must go; a barrel whose exports are ALL dead is itself dead — delete it and fix importers to direct paths.

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.
