system-review
deeply review a system/architecture area and propose a simplification plan (Elon’s Algorithm).
npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill system-review-ianwatts22-codex-config-6fb5d7c8 --agent codex
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for claude-code, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
Perform a deep system/structure review with the explicit goal of **drastically simplifying**. ## Method: Elon’s 5-Step Algorithm (in order) 1. **Make the requirements less dumb** - Challenge assumptions; list what’s unclear; ask the minimum questions to proceed. 2. **Delete** - Identify code, layers, features, and processes that should not exist. - Prefer removal over “refactor”. 3. **Simplify** - Propose the smallest design that satisfies the real requirements. - Reduce indirection and config surface area. 4. **Accelerate** - Find the current bottleneck and optimize only that. 5. **Automate** - Only once the process is simple and stable. ## Tools - Use repo tooling (`scc`, `knip`, `jscpd`, `rg`) to find hotspots and duplication. - If appropriate, use `oracle` for independent critique. - Provide it all relevant context (key files, diagrams, constraints). ## Recurring Things To Check (If Relevant) - Under-leveraging Convex (especially Components / `convex-helpers`) leading to excess boilerplate - Re-inventing the wheel instead of using mature npm libraries - React complexity driven by unnecessary effects - See `~/.config/docs/React/ReactEffectsGuide.md` ## Output Format - Current st

What does the system-review skill do?
deeply review a system/architecture area and propose a simplification plan (Elon’s Algorithm).
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill system-review-ianwatts22-codex-config-6fb5d7c8 --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From majiayu000/claude-skill-registry, a repository with 534 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
