ponytail-review

Invoke the review on a diff and it flags over-engineering with five tags: delete, stdlib, native, yagni, and shrink. Each finding is one line showing the location, what to cut, and what replaces it, ending with a net lines-removable score.

It finds dead code and unused flexibility, hand-rolled logic the standard library already ships, dependencies duplicating native platform features, abstractions with a single implementation, and logic that can be written in fewer lines.

No. Correctness bugs, security holes, and performance problems are explicitly out of scope and should be routed to a normal review pass. This review only hunts complexity and over-engineering.

No. It only lists findings with locations and replacements; it does not modify the code. You decide which suggestions to apply in a separate editing step.

Skip it when you need correctness, security, or performance feedback, since those are out of scope. It also never flags a single smoke test or assert-based self-check, which is considered the minimum, not bloat.
