What problem does it solve?

This Skill guides developers in writing simple, readable, and maintainable code by applying core Clean Code principles. It helps avoid over-engineering, unnecessary complexity, and code duplication, leading to more robust and understandable software.

Core Features & Use Cases

• KISS (Keep It Simple, Stupid): Encourages solutions that are as simple as possible, avoiding premature optimization and complex abstractions.
• YAGNI (You Aren't Gonna Need It): Promotes building only what is currently required by the business, preventing speculative features and unused code.
• DRY (Don't Repeat Yourself): Advocates for abstracting common logic after the "Rule of Three" to reduce duplication and improve maintainability.
• TDA (Tell, Don't Ask): Guides objects to command actions rather than querying state and then acting on it, improving encapsulation.
• Use Case: "Review this new feature implementation to ensure it adheres to the YAGNI principle, removing any speculative code that isn't part of the current requirements."

Quick Start

Refactor a function to simplify its logic, applying the KISS principle.
