Code Optimizer
Package manager:
bunandbunxonly. Nevernpm,npx,yarn, orpnpm— the sole exception is thetalos npm:*commands, which publish to the npm registry.
CLI first. A
talos/buncommand is faster and cheaper than doing the same work by hand:talos <artifact>:createover hand-writing a file,talos project:check --strict --logs/talos fmt/talos lint/talos testover running each tool yourself,talos <domain>:<verb>over scripting the steps, and a singlerg/git/lsinvocation over file-by-file reads.talos helpandtalos <command> --helplist what exists — check there before writing a manual procedure, and only fall back to manual work when no command covers it.
Bring one module in line with project conventions — clean code, no duplication, only meaningful tests — without changing behavior. Refactor and tidy the module you are given, then report.
- Do not add features, fix bugs, resolve issues, create issue YAML, or run generator/
taloscommands — those belong to other skills. - Never edit an existing migration file. If a schema change would help, run
talos migration:createfor a new migration instead of touching one that already exists. - Respect the module's existing file and folder structure. Don't invent a layout — confirm it against the matching structure skill in
.claude/skills/(talos-module,talos-spa,talos-design,talos-storybook,talos-swagger,talos-scaffold/talos-architecture) before creating, moving, or renaming anything. - Design system first — always pick UI elements from the design system module. Every button, input, select, checkbox, dialog, drawer, card, badge, tooltip, table shell, icon, and layout primitive must come from the design module (
@module/<design>/...) — never a raw styled<button>/<input>/<div>, a third-party UI kit, or a hand-rolled copy of something the system already exposes. When optimizing a UI module, replace ad-hoc styled elements with the system's equivalents; list what exists (ls modules/<design>/src/components,ls modules/<design>/src/icons,cat modules/<design>/src/index.ts) and pick from it; only when nothing fits do you add the missing primitive to the design module and consume it from there — never style a one-off locally. Every color, spacing, radius, shadow, and type size resolves to the design module's tokens. - Prefer the design system's defaults — never restate them at the call site. Pass a prop only when its value differs from the component's own default:
<ButtonCancel type="button" size="md" onClick={onCancel}>is wrong whenmdis the default size — write<ButtonCancel type="button" onClick={onCancel}>. Read the component'scvadefaultVariants(and its default parameter values) before passingsize,variant,color,tone,radius,align, and friends, and drop anyclassNamethat re-applies what the default already gives you. Redundant props hide the one prop that actually matters and pin the call site to a value the design system may re-tune later. - Always use the design module's intent-named action button. It ships one component per common action, each wrapping
Buttonwith the right variant, leading icon, and default label — pick by intent: cancel/dismiss/abort →ButtonCancel; back/previous step →ButtonBack; next/continue →ButtonNext; save/create/submit →ButtonSave; edit/rename/modify →ButtonEdit; delete/remove/destroy →ButtonDelete; overflow "…" menu trigger →ButtonMore. Never a plainButtoncarrying that label, avariant-tweaked button, a raw<button>, or a text link. Pass children only to override the wording (a translated string, "Discard", "Publish", "Remove"), and never restate the variant or re-add the icon it already renders. If the design module lacks the one you need, add it there and consume it from there. - Use an existing
@talosjstype instead of re-creating it. Before keeping or adding a local type/interface, check@talosjs/typesand the relevant domain package (seetalos-packages) for one that already covers the shape; replace a local duplicate with the import. - Run every command from the monorepo root, never from inside a package.
- Module location:
<module>resolves tomodules/<module>/orpackages/<module>/(e.g. once extracted into a shared package). Check both roots before assuming a path is missing.
Input
You're given one module (e.g. modules/billing/), and possibly a sub-scope. If the scope resolves to no such module, say so and stop. Before touching anything, confirm the module starts clean and its tests pass:
git status --porcelain
talos workspace:run --commands=test --modules=<module> --logs
If there are pre-existing uncommitted changes or already-failing tests, report that and proceed only on the files in your scope — never claim a fix you didn't make. Refactor only: never alter behavior or a public API without first checking its callers across the repo.
1. Map the module
Read the module's source and build a picture before editing — inventory each type, interface, class, and standalone function with its path, and note:
- Naming violations — type not ending
Type; interface not startingI; a non-arrow standalone function (class methods stay methods); a method/property missing explicit visibility; a non-null assertion (!); an optional entity property missingnull/nullable. - Duplication — repeated logic, types, or utilities, with paths.
- Dead code — unused imports, unreachable branches, unused vars, empty files.
2. Apply the fixes
Work through the module and apply every fix yourself:
- Conventions — rename types/interfaces and update all references; convert standalone functions to arrow functions; add explicit visibility; make optional entity columns
nullable; replace!with real types/guards. Keep DI class suffixes (Service,Repository,Middleware,Cron,Queue,Controller) and their@decorator.*()intact. - Constraints — every assertion belongs in
src/constraints/: move validation helpers out ofsrc/utils/(*Validation.ts,*RouteAsserts.ts) and rules inlined in controllers/services, keeping the accepted values identical and updating every import; replace a module-local rule with the equivalent@talosjs/validation/constraints/Assert*where one exists (seetalos-module→ Constraints,optimize-conventions). - Generated values — route every generated identifier through
random.id()and every human-facing short code throughrandom.code()(@talosjs/utils/random), replacingcrypto.randomUUID(),Math.random(),Date.now()-based and hand-rolled generators; keeprandom.nanoid()/random.stringInt()only where an external contract fixes the length. Changing an existing persisted generator changes stored data — flag it instead of swapping it silently. - Duplication & dead code — extract shared logic into helper arrows or base classes; consolidate near-duplicate types and utilities; delete dead code.
- Performance — apply the project's performance rules (
optimize-conventions): avoid needless allocations and repeated work, prefer the right data structure, keep hot paths lean — without changing observable behavior. - Tests — follow the testing conventions (
optimize-testing): prune trivial getters/setters and placeholder/"not implemented" assertions, keep and improve meaningful tests, consolidate redundant ones. Don't weaken assertions to make a suite pass. - React (spa/design only) — if the module is
spaordesign, adopt the UI craft and React patterns fromoptimize-ui: always re-ground any visual work in the design module'ssrc/inspirations/library first (<category>/<slug>.yml+ matching.webp, ~1,820 real product screens —rgthe ones matching the screen's categories, read the 2–4 that fit, open their screenshots, and close the gap wherever the existing UI is thinner in structure, density, or state coverage, without ever copying their palette, radii, shadows, spacing, or copy; seeoptimize-ui'sreferences/inspirations.md, and never import, bundle, or edit anything undersrc/inspirations/); custom hooks for reusable stateful logic, compound components over prop-heavy monoliths, small Zustand stores with selectors, TanStack Query/Virtual/Pacer/Hotkeys where they fit, and the interaction/motion/typography/color/surface rules for anything visual. Every table or data grid must run on TanStack Table (@tanstack/react-table, latest version) — port any hand-rolled sorting/filtering/pagination state over a raw<table>, any leftover react-table v7, or any pre-built grid onto it (headless, so keep the existing design-system markup and tokens); seeoptimize-ui'sreferences/data-and-performance.md. Every chart, graph, plot, or data visualization must run on TanStack Charts (@tanstack/charts, latest version) — port any other charting library (Recharts, Chart.js, ECharts, Nivo, Victory, …) or hand-rolled SVG/canvas plotting onto adefineChartcomposition rendered through@tanstack/charts/react, and hoist definitions and their data out of the render. Every bounded region that can overflow (listing, menu, long text, sidebar, dialog/drawer body, code block, log output) must scroll through the design module'sScrollArea(@module/<design>/components/scroll-area) — port ad-hocoverflow-auto/overflow-y-scrollcontainers onto it, cap the height on the viewport (viewportClassName), and give the rootmin-h-0 flex-1inside a flex column; leave the page's document scroll native. Also check existing UI againstoptimize-ui'sreferences/ai-slop.mdand strip any generic gradient-as-brand-color, glassmorphism-as-decoration, or stock template layout you find.
Preserve every public contract. If a clean-up would change a public API or observable behavior, leave it and flag it in your report rather than breaking callers.
3. Verify
talos project:check --strict --logs
Tests must pass after just as they did before. Fix every failure you introduced before finishing; if a failure is pre-existing and not yours, say so.
Report
Return a concise summary scoped to the one module: conventions fixed, duplication/dead code removed, performance changes, tests pruned or improved, any React patterns adopted, and the fmt/lint/test result. List anything you deliberately left alone because it would change behavior or a public API, so the caller can decide. Don't touch files outside the module's scope.
