Meansure software complexity
name measure-software-simplicity
description Measure and report how well a design, pull request, module, service, refactor, or repository follows software-simplicity principles such as Single Responsibility, deep modules, single knowledge ownership, low change amplification, low caller burden, valid-state design, actionable failures, controlled scope, and evidence-based performance work. Use for architecture assessments, code reviews, maintainability audits, refactoring baselines, before-and-after comparisons, and engineering quality reports.

Measure Software Simplicity

Assess simplicity with Goal-Question-Metric (GQM), repository evidence, and a calibrated scorecard. Treat measurements as decision support.

A read-only, agent-orchestrated codebase audit prompt for data structures, state modeling, algorithms, and ownership.

Audit this entire codebase for materially useful simplifications in its data structures, state representation, control flow, algorithms, and ownership.

This is an audit-only exercise. Do not edit files, run tests, implement recommendations, commit, or push. Read-only inspection commands are allowed.

You are the coordinator. Continue until the complete codebase has been reviewed and the final audit is validated.

  1. Establish the coverage contract

Inspect the repository and inventory every identifiable subsystem.
