architecture-simplification SKILL.md skillA

architecture-simplification from yeaight7/agent-powerups is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add yeaight7/agent-powerups/architecture-simplification@git:20260606.d04ecb2

Pins git:20260606.d04ecb2 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Use when a codebase carries over-engineered abstractions, unnecessary layers, or redundant logic that should be collapsed without changing behavior.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

## Purpose

Over time, codebases accumulate "just in case" abstractions. This skill guides the safe removal of unnecessary complexity: remove the noise around the core logic without changing the core logic itself.

## When to Use

- An interface has only one implementation and no second one is planned
- A wrapper, factory, or layer only passes arguments straight through
- Two code paths do the same thing and should be consolidated

## Inputs

- The suspect abstraction(s) and their call sites
- A green test suite covering the affected area

## Workflow

1. **Identify the abstraction cost.** Does this interface have only one implementation? Does this wrapper class just pass arguments straight through? Measure before cutting:

   ```bash
   grep -rn "implements IUserRepository" src/    # count implementations
   grep -rn "IUserRepository" src/ | wc -l       # count references
   ```

2. **Run the tests first.** The affected area must be green before any removal — this is the behavioral baseline.

3. **Inline the logic.** Move the logic from the unnecessary abstraction directly into the caller.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add yeaight7/agent-powerups/architecture-simplification@sha256:6ee9efda8da5a97e

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260606.d04ecb2, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
