# Ponytail Audit > External import of **Ponytail** by Dietrich Gebert and contributors, adapted from upstream v4.9.0 under MIT. ## Goal Run the Ponytail over-engineering review across an entire repository. ## Input A repository tree and enough source/dependency context to inspect real usage. ## Output Rank findings by biggest useful cut: `<tag> <what to cut>. <replacement>. [path]` Use the same tags as `ponytail-review`: `delete`, `stdlib`, `native`, `yagni`, `shrink`. End with `net: -<N> lines, -<M> deps possible.` If nothing should be cut: `Lean already. Ship.` ## Workflow Hunt for dependencies the platform already replaces, single-implementation interfaces, factories with one product, wrappers that only delegate, dead flags/config, speculative layers, needless one-export files, and hand-rolled standard-library behavior. ## Rules - Repo-wide audit only; one-shot. - Scope is over-engineering and complexity. Correctness, security, and performance belong in normal review. - Report findings; do not mutate the repository unless the user separately asks.
