# Audit a codebase or process for what to delete
Read [shared.md](shared.md) first. Save a report with kind `optimization`.
The only writes are report/task artifacts. Never edit, delete, reconfigure or
execute a proposed change in the audited target. Read-only shell checks are
permitted; do not run target scripts with unknown side effects.
Three principles: start with deletion as the hypothesis; inspect the actual
thing; make each recommendation concrete. The burden is on keeping components,
but absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.
## Inventory
Scope the target and classify code versus non-code. For code, read actual files,
search consumers and writers, and inspect history if available. For a process,
read the supplied procedure and actual observations. If observations are missing,
ask for steps, frequency, participants, outputs, last use, dependencies and what
would break if removed. Do not invent a meeting cadence or usage history.
Build a numbered map: component, purpose, last observed use, consumers, owner
or writer, size or time cost, evidence and uncertainty. Say when measurements
cover only the inspected scope.
## Load-bearing test
For every component, ask these questions in order and record the evidence:
1. Does deleting it break current behavior? Keep until that dependency is resolved.
2. When was it actually used? Inactivity is a signal to investigate, not a deadline
after which a seasonal or recovery component becomes unnecessary.
3. Does the
