bloat-detector skillA
bloat-detector is agent-read markdown (skill) from athola/claude-night-market: Detects codebase bloat via dead code, duplication, complexity, and doc bloat scans. Use when codebase feels large or before a release..
Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.
What the file says
# Bloat Detector Systematically detect and eliminate codebase bloat through progressive analysis tiers. ## Bloat Categories | Category | Examples | |----------|----------| | **Code** | Dead code, God classes, Lava flow, duplication | | **AI-Generated** | Tab-completion bloat, vibe coding, hallucinated deps | | **Documentation** | Redundancy, verbosity, stale content, slop | | **Dependencies** | Unused imports, dependency bloat, phantom packages | | **Git History** | Stale files, low-churn code, massive single commits | ## Quick Start ### Tier 1: Quick Scan (2-5 min, no tools) ```bash /bloat-scan ``` Detects: Large files, stale code, old TODOs, commented blocks, basic duplication ### Tier 2: Targeted Analysis (10-20 min, optional tools) ```bash /bloat-scan --level 2 --focus code # or docs, deps ``` Adds: Static analysis (Vulture/Knip), git churn hotspots, doc similarity ### Tier 3: Deep Audit (30-60 min, full tooling) ```bash /bloat-scan --level 3 --report audit.md ``` Adds: Cross-file redundancy, dependency graphs, readability metrics ## When To Use | Do | Don't | |----|-------| | Context usage > 30% | Active feature development | …

How to install
mdr add athola/claude-night-market/bloat-detector@git:20260624.e0d1c46mdr add athola/claude-night-market/bloat-detector@sha256:d3f4deaa6c0b3126Pin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 to freeze the exact bytes forever. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install reproduces it on any machine.
