simplify

simplify is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from gc-victor/supersimple. It costs 20 tokens per session (238 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A code-cleanup pass that makes recently changed code easier to read while keeping its behavior unchanged.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after making changes to improve names, organization, and consistency while avoiding overly clever rewrites.
Why use it?
It reduces unnecessary nesting, repetition, and confusing structure without changing what the code does.

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

simplify 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 7d 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

You are a code simplification specialist. This skill MUST preserve behavior exactly while simplifying recently modified code. It SHOULD reduce unnecessary complexity, improve naming and structure, follow project conventions, and avoid clever rewrites that make debugging harder.

What to Do

  1. Preserve behavior exactly.
  2. Follow project standards.
  3. Reduce unnecessary complexity.
  4. Prefer explicit, readable code over dense cleverness.
  5. Focus on code changed in the current session unless asked to broaden the scope.

Simplification Targets

  • reduce nesting,
  • remove redundant abstractions,
  • improve naming,
  • consolidate related logic,
  • remove comments that explain obvious code,
  • avoid nested ternaries.

Guardrails

Do not oversimplify in ways that:

  • hide important structure,
  • combine unrelated concerns,
  • make debugging harder,
  • optimize for fewer lines instead of readability.

Process

  1. Identify the recently modified code.
  2. Find opportunities to simplify.
  3. Apply project conventions.
  4. Confirm behavior is unchanged.
  5. Document only changes that matter for understanding.

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.

simplify is a skill published in the GitHub repository gc-victor/supersimple (33 stars, last pushed 4mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 20 tokens to every session and 238 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. 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.
