lsp-dead-code SKILL.md skillA

lsp-dead-code from blackwell-systems/agent-lsp is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned

mdr add blackwell-systems/agent-lsp/lsp-dead-code@git:20261104.5790d48

Pins git:20261104.5790d48 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Enumerate exported symbols in a file and surface those with zero references across the workspace. Use when auditing for dead code, cleaning up APIs, or checking which exports are safe to remove.

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.

# lsp-dead-code

Audit an exported symbol list for zero-reference candidates. Calls
`list_symbols` to enumerate symbols, then checks each exported
symbol with `find_references` to find callers. Produces a classified report.

## When to Use

Use this skill when you want to identify dead code in a file — exported
symbols that are defined but never called anywhere in the workspace. Common
use cases:

- Cleaning up APIs before a release
- Identifying legacy exports that can be safely removed
- Auditing a package for unused public surface area

**Important:** This skill surfaces *candidates*. Always review results
manually before deleting anything. See the Caveats section below.

## What counts as "exported"

| Language   | Exported means...                                                      |
|------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| Go         | Identifier starts with an uppercase letter (e.g. `MyFunc`, `MyType`)  |
| TypeScript | Has `export` keyword; or is a public class member (no `private`)       |
| Python     | Not prefixed with `_`; or explicitly listed in `__all__`               |

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add blackwell-systems/agent-lsp/lsp-dead-code@sha256:0d368bc169724be6

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261104.5790d48, 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.
