Reduce total mechanism in a selected existing system or behavior path while conserving its agreed observable behavior and non-functional guarantees. Use when the user explicitly wants fewer branches, states, dependencies, layers, flags, retries, jobs, adapters, or operational moving parts and needs evidence that complexity was removed rather than relocated. Supports read-only diagnosis and authorized reduction slices. Not for routine cleanup, architecture-investment discovery, module-contract d…

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

What this skill can do

We found nothing in the files we read that matches our rules. That does not prove the skill is safe: see the limits of static scanning.

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'reduce-system-complexity' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'reduce-system-complexity' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named reduce-system-complexity already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/citypaul/.dotfiles' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet 'cd4028d57d6e4e95814f7b8ee55ca13c23a9c2f0' -- 'claude/.claude/skills/reduce-system-complexity' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'claude/.claude/skills/reduce-system-complexity' ~/.agents/skills/'reduce-system-complexity' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'reduce-system-complexity' ~/.claude/skills/'reduce-system-complexity' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
