RDXmin — quick reference
What it is: maximum-efficiency dev mode. Zero-fluff prose + YAGNI-first code, always on together.
Commands
| Command | Effect |
|---|
/rdx | Activate at default level (full) |
/rdx lite | Tighter prose, flags the minimal alternative |
/rdx full | Full compression + YAGNI ladder |
/rdx ultra | Extremist: abbreviate prose, delete before add |
/rdx-audit [path] | Audit a diff/file/repo for both code bloat AND prose verbosity |
/rdx-review | Review the current diff for over-engineering |
stop rdx / normal mode | Deactivate |
Natural language works: "activate rdx", "rdx mode", "rdxify this".
Levels at a glance
- lite — keeps full sentences; names the lazier code option, you pick.
- full — drops articles, fragments OK, ladder enforced. Default.
- ultra — abbreviates prose words, challenges the requirement itself.
The code ladder
YAGNI → reuse → stdlib → native → installed dep → one line → minimum code.
Statusline
[RDX] / [RDX:ULTRA] — shows the active level. Configure via
hooks/rdx-statusline.sh (or .ps1 on Windows).
Never minimal about
Input validation, error handling that prevents data loss, security,
accessibility, anything you explicitly asked for.
