Chisle review
SkillFiles & storageReview a diff or file through the Chisle lens: flag over-engineering, speculative abstractions, reinvented stdlib, and verbose code that a lazier approach would shrink. One finding per line, no praise. Use when the user says "chisle review", "review this for bloat", or invokes /chisle-review.

What this skill tells your AI
The instructions your AI receives, as published by jaypokale/chisle in skills/chisle-review/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.
Review the diff/file for what could be deleted or simplified, not for style nits.
What to flag
- Abstraction with one implementation (interface/factory/wrapper for a single case)
- Reinvented stdlib (hand-rolled debounce, deep-clone, groupBy, date math)
- New dependency for what a few lines or an installed dep already does
- Config/option that never varies
- Speculative "for later" scaffolding with no current caller
- Verbose code where a native platform feature (CSS, DB constraint,
<input type>) does it
What NOT to flag
- Input validation at trust boundaries
- Error handling that prevents data loss
- Security / accessibility code
- Anything the task explicitly required
Output format
One finding per line. No preamble, no praise.
path:line: <what's over-built>. <the lazier replacement>.
Example:
cache.js:12: ApiCacheManager class for one call site. Replace with lru_cache / a Map.
search.js:40: hand-rolled debounce util. setTimeout+clearTimeout inline is enough.
End with a one-line verdict: N findings. Est. <X> lines removable.
