decompose-conditional

decompose-conditional is a skill for Claude Code from msbaek/msbaek-claude-plugins. It costs 122 tokens per session (1,669 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A code-refactoring method that moves the conditions and branches of a complicated if/then/else statement into methods with meaningful names.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when a conditional has become difficult to understand or when its individual decisions need clearer names.
Why use it?
It makes the decision logic easier to read by replacing one dense block with smaller, named pieces.

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

decompose-conditional 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 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.

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.

Decompose Conditional

GOAL

복잡한 조건문(if/then/else)을 의미 있는 이름의 메서드로 분해하여:

  • 조건식의 의도를 명확한 메서드명으로 표현
  • 분기별 로직을 독립적 메서드로 분리
  • 가독성 및 재사용성 향상

Guard Clauses와 상호 보완:

  • Guard Clauses: 중첩 해결 (early return)
  • Decompose Conditional: 조건식 복잡성 해결 (의미 부여)

CONSTRAINTS

  • 계열: Tidy — 후보 보고 후 승인 없이 적용 (../../references/refactoring-procedure.md §0·§3-A)
  • 동작 변경 금지: 구조 개선만 수행 (기능 변경 없음)
  • 테스트 수정 금지: 구조 변경이 테스트를 실패시키면 되돌리기
  • 명시적 git add: git add -A 금지, 변경된 파일만 명시
  • Extract Method 포함: 단일 클래스 내 완결 시에만 적용

적용 패턴

Before: 복잡한 조건식

if (date.isBefore(SUMMER_START) || date.isAfter(SUMMER_END)) {
    charge = quantity * winterRate + winterServiceCharge;
} else {
    charge = quantity * summerRate;
}

After: 조건식과 분기 모두 추출

if (isWinter(date)) {
    charge = winterCharge(quantity);
} else {
    charge = summerCharge(quantity);
}

private boolean isWinter(LocalDate date) {
    return date.isBefore(SUMMER_START) || date.isAfter(SUMMER_END);
}

private double winterCharge(int quantity) {
    return quantity * winterRate + winterServiceCharge;
}

private double summerCharge(int quantity) {
    return quantity * summerRate;
}

추가 예시: 복합 조건

// Before
if (customer.isPremium() && order.getTotal() > 1000 || 
    customer.isVip() && order.getTotal() > 500) {
    applySpecialDiscount();
} else {
    applyStandardDiscount();
}

// After
if (eligibleForSpecialDiscount(customer, order)) {
    applySpecialDiscount();
} else {
    applyStandardDiscount();
}

private boolean eligibleForSpecialDiscount(Customer customer, Order order) {
    return customer.isPremium() && order.getTotal() > 1000 ||
           customer.isVip() && order.getTotal() > 500;
}

추가 예시: 중첩 조건 + Guard Clause 병행

// Before
if (isActive) {
    if (hasPermission) {
        if (isValidDate) {
            processRequest();
        }
    }
}

// After (Guard Clause + Decompose Conditional)
if (!isActive) return;
if (!hasPermission) return;
if (!isValidDate) return;
processRequest();

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.

decompose-conditional is a skill published in the GitHub repository msbaek/msbaek-claude-plugins (8 stars, last pushed 5d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 122 tokens to every session and 1,669 once invoked, about $0.0005 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings.
