audit-noise
This skill contains shell command directives (!`command`) that may execute system commands. Review carefully before installing.
Pre-computed context
Current branch: !git branch --show-current 2>/dev/null || echo "unknown"
Uncommitted .md files: !git status --porcelain 2>/dev/null | grep '\.md$' | head -10 || echo "none"
Noise findings (sample): !bash "${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/detect.sh" 2>/dev/null | grep -E '^(Summary total:|Finding shape:)' | head -20 || echo "none"
Purpose
Tracked markdown — rules, skill bodies, instruction files (CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md), docs/, READMEs — accumulates five NOISE shapes distinct from FLAVOR (owned by the sibling /compress). Each shape carries a maintenance tax plus a reader-facing tax that compounds across the corpus. This skill is a read-only classifier: it surfaces candidates with treatment guidance; the author hand-applies every edit.
Existence pre-check (before in-page noise)
Before classifying in-page noise, ask the whole-page admission question first: could a reader with repository search derive this page's content from the code itself? A page failing admission is a deletion candidate — its finding recommends relocate-then-delete (salvage anything admissible first), never a line-level noise treatment, and never auto-delete (this skill stays read-only).
