Dverity Simplify
Read references/simplification-rules.js. Review only the verified diff and
preserve its accepted behavior.
Use this order:
- Delete behavior that is unnecessary or speculative. YAGNI beats rewriting.
- Replace custom machinery with an existing native API or standard library.
- Repair confirmed structural risk: mixed responsibilities, excessive
branching or nesting, giant modules, hidden coupling, or poor test seams.
- Keep necessary code when none of those conditions is proven.
Tests must observe public behavior. Do not add private-method assertions,
internal collaborator mocks, or abstractions created only to satisfy a test.
The bundled decision reference is the executable behavioral contract; no
external Skill, plugin identity, version, or absolute path is required.
