Use when asked to find, audit or remove dead, unused or unreachable code in a Swift package or Xcode app, repository-wide or in one module ("dead code cleanup", "удалить неиспользуемый код", unused declarations, imports, target dependencies, resources, assets or files), or when judging whether such a cleanup is complete before its PR. Needs the swift-dead-code CLI.
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
# Removing dead code with swift-dead-code The CLI finds candidates deterministically; you decide what the tool cannot: whether a finding is a seam, a contract or AMBIGUOUS, and whether a deletion leaves anything behind. A scanner's list is a set of leads, never the verdict and never the complete set. A cleanup is finished when the completeness sweep (§5) finds nothing new, not when a list is empty or the build passes. If `swift-dead-code` is missing, install it with `brew install ivan-magda/tap/swift-dead-code`; `scan` also needs Periphery 3.8.0 ([install](https://github.com/ivan-magda/swift-dead-code#install)). Run every command from the project root. `.deadcode.yml` there holds the project's settings: schemes, test support, allowlist, baseline path, contract documents. Without one, run `swift-dead-code init > .deadcode.yml` and fill it in: an Xcode project's schemes and `builds`, test support targets, `module_names` for a product whose modules have other names (an umbrella product such as `SwiftToolsSupport-auto`), and `periphery.arguments: [--retain-public]` for a library. Commit it in a cleanup; in an audit, leave it uncommitted. …

How to install
mdr add ivan-magda/swift-claw/removing-dead-code@sha256:3e7f340319644247The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261103.cd59070, 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.
