Andrew Gleave publishes skills that help an AI agent simplify and clean up code for readability and handoff, challenge requirements and cut unnecessary work before building features or migrations, and review reasoning using critical rationalist methods. His catalogue also covers the wording of text inside products and interfaces, such as UX copy, error messages and CLI output, and includes a skill that diagnoses a codebase from its git history for churn hotspots and bus factor risks. What stands out is the focus on reducing complexity, both in code and in the decisions that precede it.
