Automating tech debt cleanup targets auto-fixable static analysis findings with high confidence. This skill verifies each fix against a safety checklist, applies changes bottom-up, runs lint and typecheck, and groups them into a single commit.

This code cleanup tool does not auto-fix low confidence findings. It strictly targets audit findings with a confidence score of 90% or higher to ensure safety and prevent unintended changes to business logic.

The best way to group low-risk code fixes into a single commit is using an audit-driven workflow. This skill applies verified auto-fixes bottom-up and generates a single structured commit with a clear summary.

To remove dead code and unused imports safely, this skill applies automated fixes only to high-confidence audit findings. It verifies changes against a safety checklist before committing to avoid touching business logic.

Yes, you need a codebase audit report before running automated tech debt cleanup. The skill integrates with audit outputs like docs/project/codebase_audit.md to identify eligible auto-fixable issues for safe removal.

A limitation of automating tech debt cleanup with a 90% confidence threshold is that it skips numerous valid lower-confidence findings. It also focuses exclusively on safe auto-fixes and will not refactor complex business logic.
