Files
Technical Debt Finder
Identify and fix technical debt in the codebase.
What to Look For
Code Duplication
- Functions with similar logic that could be consolidated
- Copy-pasted code blocks
- Repeated patterns that should be abstracted
Dead Code
- Unused imports
- Unused functions or classes
- Commented-out code blocks
- Unreachable code paths
Outdated Patterns
- Deprecated API usage
- Old-style string formatting (% or .format) vs f-strings
- Type hints using
typing.Listinstead oflist - Missing type hints on public functions
Code Smells
- Functions longer than 50 lines
- Too many parameters (more than 5)
- Deep nesting (more than 3 levels)
- Magic numbers without constants
- Overly complex conditionals
Missing Best Practices
- Missing docstrings on public functions
- Missing error handling
- Hardcoded values that should be config
- Missing tests for critical paths
Workflow
1. Scan the Codebase
- Look for patterns matching the issues above
- Prioritize by impact and ease of fix
2. Report Findings
- List issues by category
- Include file paths and line numbers
- Estimate severity (high/medium/low)
3. Fix Issues
- Start with high-severity, easy fixes
- Create atomic commits for each fix
- Run tests after each change
4. Verify
- Run linter:
ruff check . - Run tests:
pytest - Ensure no new issues introduced
Arguments
Optionally specify a directory or file to focus on.
Usage:
/techdebt- Scan entire project/techdebt src/- Scan specific directory/techdebt src/utils.py- Scan specific file
Output
Provide a summary of:
- Issues found (by category)
- Issues fixed
- Remaining items for future sessions
