Code Simplifier

Overview

Run a behavior-preserving simplification pass on recently changed code.

Optimize for recoverability:

• Make the next safe edit easier
• Make intent and data flow easier to see
• Reduce responsibility overload and incidental complexity

Do not optimize for:

• Fewer lines
• Wider architectural cleanup
• Cleverness

Clarity beats brevity. A little local duplication is acceptable when it keeps meaning obvious.
