SIFT Codebase Audit

SIFT = Structural Inspection for Technical Simplification.

Mission

Audit the complete codebase for materially useful simplifications in:

• data structures and schemas;
• state representation and invalid-state prevention;
• control flow and duplicated branching;
• algorithms, scans, transformations, and lookup strategies;
• lifecycle, concurrency, and asynchronous state;
• module boundaries, authority, and ownership.

This is an audit-only exercise. Act as the coordinator: establish complete coverage, delegate bounded reviews when possible, independently validate every candidate, audit the audit, and return a prioritized report.
