Code Simplification

Owns: focused simplification of recently changed code. It does not select tickets, expand scope, review acceptance, produce QA/audit artifacts, commit, push, open PRs, or finalize workflow state.

Inputs

Require the changed diff, allowed paths, semantic invariants, project conventions, and checks that currently pass. If the candidate is not GREEN, return without editing.

Volatile intake bound

• max_volatile_bytes: 103232 normalized UTF-8 bytes per invocation. This is the observed 96,393-byte candidate-diff high-water mark plus the 2,380-byte ticket-body and 4,459-byte implementation-handoff maxima. The corpus is the run's TK-01/TK-02/TK-05/ TK-07/TK-08 normalized git diff --no-ext-diff --no-color observations, its nine ticket bodies, and compact leaf results.
• max_single_output_bytes: 32596, the observed TK-02 executable-code candidate diff.
