simplify

simplify is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from pankaj28843/docs-mcp-server. It costs 17 tokens per session (139 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A review and cleanup workflow for recently changed code. It looks for duplication, unnecessary complexity, unused code, and other quality problems, then runs formatting, linting, and unit tests.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after making code changes to simplify implementation, remove dead or repetitive code, and verify the result with automated checks.
Why use it?
It helps keep a change set smaller, clearer, and easier to maintain before it is considered finished.

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 3d 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

Steps

  1. Review recent changes (git diff or specified files)
  2. Check for:
    • Code duplication that could be consolidated
    • Unnecessary abstractions or indirection
    • Pass-through functions that add no value
    • Overly complex control flow
    • Unused imports or variables
  3. Apply simplifications
  4. Run validation: uv run ruff format . && uv run ruff check --fix . && timeout 120 uv run pytest -m unit --no-cov
  5. Report what was simplified and why

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.
