Does this skill automatically change my code?

By default, it applies fixes for high-severity findings. However, you can use the --dry-run argument to generate a report without modifying any files.

Which programming languages does it support?

The skill is optimized for modern development stacks including TypeScript, JavaScript, Python, Go, Rust, Vue, and Svelte.

What is Tech Debt Sweep?

Tech Debt Sweep is a Claude Code skill designed to perform rapid, mechanical audits of codebases to find duplicates, unused dependencies, and naming inconsistencies.

How does it handle large repositories?

For repositories with over 200 files, the skill intelligently limits its scope to files changed in the last 30 commits to ensure the scan remains fast and relevant.

Productivity & Workflow

Conducts a fast, pragmatic scan of your codebase to identify and fix mechanical technical debt like dead code and unused dependencies.

Tech Debt Sweep is a specialized utility designed for quick, end-of-session repository maintenance. Instead of performing slow, deep architectural audits, it uses parallel sub-agents to hunt for 'low-hanging fruit' that accumulates during development, such as duplicated code blocks, unimported exports, unused package dependencies, and stale TODOs. It provides a terse, actionable report with direct file-and-line references and can optionally automate the fixing of high-severity issues to keep your codebase lean and maintainable.

Key Features

01Parallel codebase scanning using three specialized sub-agents for speed.

02Automated flagging of stale TODOs and inconsistent naming conventions.

03Detection of dead exports and unused npm/package dependencies.

040 GitHub stars

05One-click fix application for high-priority maintenance tasks.

06Identification of duplicated code blocks and bloated source files over 300 lines.

Use Cases

01Standardizing naming conventions and file structures across a multi-language codebase.

02Auditing large repositories for unused libraries and dead code after a major refactor.

03Performing a quick cleanup sweep at the end of a coding session before pushing to Git.
