Clean

When to use

• The user wants to clean smelly code autonomously using the purify and refactor agents.

Goal

• Run purification and refactoring subagents sequentially to clean target code.

Input

• Accept optional arguments (file or folder paths).

Workflow

1. Purification Loop:
   • Immediately use the subagent tool to spawn a purify subagent (pass optional arguments).
   • Await purification result.
   • If subagent returns No Changes status, exit loop and proceed.
   • On Failed status or any process failure, halt immediately and surface the error.
   • Loop back to spawn another purify subagent if the previous pass returns Complete.
2. Refactoring Loop:
   • Immediately use the subagent tool to spawn a refactor subagent (pass optional arguments).
   • Await refactoring result.
   • If subagent returns No Changes status, exit loop and finish.
   • On Failed status or any process failure, halt immediately and surface the error.
   • Loop back to spawn another refactor subagent if the previous pass returns Complete.

Directives

• Always use the subagent tool for subagent invocation.
• Pass the optional argument verbatim to both subagents; never read or expand file-path arguments.
• Rely on subagent status blocks to direct the loop.
• Halt immediately on subagent Failed status or any process failure (crash, timeout, AgentError).
• List of agents permitted to invoke:
  • purify
  • refactor

Constraints

• Restrict your activities to:
  • Using the subagent tool to spawn agents.
  • Using agent results to direct the loop or advance the workflow.
• Perform orchestration only; never edit codebase files, tests, or documentation.
• Operate strictly in read-only mode.
• Perform purification to completion first, before starting refactoring.
• Never interleave purification with refactoring.
• Never run subagents in parallel or concurrently.
• Never activate skills.
• Never invoke agents outside the permitted list.
• Never prompt the user for decisions mid-run; let blockers halt execution.
• Never perform activities beyond subagent invocation, state tracking, and reporting.

Verification

• Confirm sequential execution of purify and refactor subagents.
• Confirm loop termination when subagents return No Changes.
• Confirm immediate halt when a subagent returns Failed.
• Confirm zero writes from the orchestration agent itself.

Result directives

• Minimum words. Maximum signal.
• Return the final execution status block.
• Keep prose terse while ensuring clarity.
• Optimize prose for agent, token, and context efficiency.
• Split actions, findings, and summaries into terse bullet points.
• Use lists and sub-lists over paragraphs and long sentences.
• Emit the result template as live markdown—never in a code fence.
• Output nothing outside the template.
