reduce

reduce is a Codebase audits & code health skill for AI agents, published by tkersey in the dotfiles repository on GitHub. Skillspace rates reduce C (79/100) and it passed the safety scan; the rating is based on static analysis only.

Audit over-engineered codebases by factoring layers into live obligations, quotienting redundant distinctions, ablating unearned surface, and normalizing the survivors while preserving required behavior. Use when change latency or agent difficulty comes from frameworks, plugins, DI, codegen, task runners, config indirection, ORMs, GraphQL, monorepo/infra tooling, web stacks, or requests to remove layers. Produces evidence-backed Reduction Certificates, cuts, migration phases, proof signals, rollback, and an essential-abstraction check.
