code-hygiene skillA

code-hygiene is agent-read markdown (skill) from jnpiyush/agentx: Three-pass quality sweep detecting over-engineering, stale comments, and generic UI patterns produced during AI-assisted coding sessions. Reports findings with severity and optional safe auto-fix..

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

# Code Hygiene Sweep

Three parallel analysis passes that detect and report common quality issues from AI-assisted coding -- over-engineering, stale or filler comments, and generic UI patterns that signal templated output.

## When to Use

- After completing a feature -- sweep before PR
- Before code review -- pre-clean changed files
- When code feels templated or over-abstracted
- Periodic codebase hygiene on a directory
- After a long AI-assisted session to audit quality

## Argument Parsing

Parse arguments for these tokens:

| Token | Example | Effect |
|-------|---------|--------|
| `fix` | Run with fix mode | Auto-apply safe fixes after reporting |
| `<path>` | `src/components/` | Scope to specific file or directory |
| (none) | Default | Analyze all files changed since the base branch |

## Execution Flow

### Stage 1: Determine Scope

**If a file or directory path is provided:**
Scope to that path. Use glob to list all code files under it.

**If no argument (default):**
Determine changed files since the base branch:

```bash
BASE=$(git merge-base HEAD origin/main 2>/dev/null || git merge-base HEAD origin/master 2>/dev/null || echo "HEAD~10")
git diff --name-only $BASE
```
…

Read the whole file at its exact version.

How to install

Latest version
mdr add jnpiyush/agentx/code-hygiene@git:20260416.f35825b
Exact content
mdr add jnpiyush/agentx/code-hygiene@sha256:bb623efe21f2d5c2

Pin 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.
