lsp-dead-code

lsp-dead-code is a skill for Claude Code from OKHP3/skillz. It costs 43 tokens per session (2,172 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of lsp-dead-code, MIT.

A code audit that finds exported functions, types, and other public symbols with no references elsewhere in the workspace. Exported symbols are code made available for other files or packages to use.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps review unused exports in Go, TypeScript, Python, Java, C#, and Rust projects.
Why use it?
It helps reveal unused public code before cleanup or an API release, while leaving the final deletion decision to the developer.

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

lsp-dead-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 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 237 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Requires the agent-lsp MCP server.

lsp-dead-code

Audit an exported symbol list for zero-reference candidates. Calls list_symbols to enumerate symbols, then checks each exported symbol with find_references to find callers. Produces a classified report.

When to Use

Use this skill when you want to identify dead code in a file — exported symbols that are defined but never called anywhere in the workspace. Common use cases:

  • Cleaning up APIs before a release
  • Identifying legacy exports that can be safely removed
  • Auditing a package for unused public surface area

Important: This skill surfaces candidates. Always review results manually before deleting anything. See the Caveats section below.

What counts as "exported"

Language Exported means...
Go Identifier starts with an uppercase letter (e.g. MyFunc, MyType)
TypeScript Has export keyword; or is a public class member (no private)
Python Not prefixed with _; or explicitly listed in __all__
Java/C# Has public or protected visibility modifier
Rust Has pub keyword

Prerequisites

If LSP is not yet initialized, call mcp__lsp__start_lsp with the workspace root first:

mcp__lsp__start_lsp({ "root_dir": "/your/workspace" })

agent-lsp supports auto-inference from file paths, so explicit start is only required when switching workspaces or on a cold session.

Step 0 — Verify indexing is complete (mandatory)

Do not skip this step. An under-indexed workspace returns [] for symbols that ARE referenced, producing false dead-code candidates.

Pick one symbol you know is actively used (e.g. the primary constructor, a widely-called utility function). Call find_references on it:

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.
