thermo-nuclear-code-quality-review
Run an extremely strict maintainability review for abstraction quality, giant files, and spaghetti-condition growth.
What it does
- Do not stop at "this could be a bit cleaner."
- Look for opportunities to reframe the change so that whole branches, helpers, modes, conditionals, or layers disappear entirely.
- Prefer the solution that makes the code feel inevitable in hindsight.
- If you see a path to delete complexity rather than rearrange it, push hard for that path.
- Treat this as a strong code-quality smell by default.
- Prefer extracting helpers, subcomponents, modules, or local abstractions instead of letting a file sprawl past 1000 lines.
- If the diff crosses that threshold, explicitly ask whether the code should be decomposed first.
Requirements & configuration
- Is this orchestration more sequential or less atomic than it needs to be?
- why does this need a cast / optional here? can we make the boundary more explicit instead?

What does the thermo-nuclear-code-quality-review skill do?
Run an extremely strict maintainability review for abstraction quality, giant files, and spaghetti-condition growth. Use for a thermo-nuclear code quality review, thermonuclear review, deep code quality audit, or especially harsh maintainability review. Do not stop at "this could be a bit cleaner." Look for opportunities to reframe the change so that whole branches, helpers, modes, conditionals, or layers disappear entirely.
