Your agent reads the rules. This checks whether it followed them. A ratchet turns one way. Complexity in your codebase goes down or stays flat, unless someone deliberately turns it the other way and writes down why.

- /ratchet-review
Reviews a diff or a whole repository for over-engineering only, and returns a delete list rather than prose. Finds reinvented standard library calls, dependencies the platform already covers, abstractions with one implementation, wrappers that only forward, configuration nothing
Open skill - /ratchet
Enforces a measured complexity budget on coding work. Reaches for the standard library, native platform features and code that already exists in the repository before writing anything new, and treats every added dependency, file and line as a cost that has to be justified. A
