simplify skillA

simplify is agent-read markdown (skill) from vanducng/skills: Reduce the complexity of existing code without changing behavior - deep nesting, long functions, dead code, unclear names, the wrong abstraction. Use after a feature works but reads heavier than it should, or to clean up code written under time pressure. Pass `--aggressive` to reshape a working feature into the form it should have had from day one (delete proven-dead compatibility paths). `--scan` lists aggressive candidates only. Triggers: 'simplify this', 'clean up this code', 'reduce complexi.

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.

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.
