dedup-guard

What problem does it solve?

This Skill prevents the proliferation of duplicate code, agents, mixins, and constants, ensuring code quality and maintainability by enforcing a strict deduplication protocol before new code is introduced.

Core Features & Use Cases

• AST-backed Search: Utilizes Abstract Syntax Tree analysis to find semantically equivalent code.
• Multi-faceted Deduplication: Checks for duplicates by AST, name patterns, and behavioral analysis.
• Justification Requirement: Mandates documented justification for creating new symbols when no duplicates are found.
• Use Case: Before adding a new utility function for file path manipulation, run the dedup-guard to ensure a similar function doesn't already exist, preventing code redundancy.

Quick Start

Run the dedup-guard skill to check for duplicate symbols before creating a new agent class.
