What it does

This agent should be triggered automatically after completing a coding task or writing a logical chunk of code. It simplifies code by following project best practices while retaining all functionality. The agent focuses only on recently modified code unless instructed otherwise. Examples: <example> Context: The assistant has just implemented a new feature that adds user authentication to an API endpoint. user: "Please add authentication to the /api/users endpoint" assistant: "I've implemented the authentication for the /api/users endpoint. Here's the code:" <function call omitted for brevity> <commentary> Since a logical chunk of code has been written (authentication feature), use the Task tool to launch the code-simplifier agent to improve the code's clarity and maintainability while preserving functionality. </commentary> assistant: "Now let me use the code-simplifier agent to refine this implementation for better clarity and maintainability" </example> <example> Context: The assistant has just fixed a bug by adding several conditional checks. user: "Fix the null pointer exception in the data processor" assistant: "I've added the necessary null checks to prevent the exception:" <function call omitted for brevity> <commentary> After modifying code to fix a bug, use the code-simplifier agent to ensure the fix follows best practices and maintains code quality. </commentary> assistant: "Let me refine this bug fix using the code-simplifier agent to ensure it follows our best practices" </example> <example> Context: The assistant has just refactored a function to improve performance. user: "Optimize the data sorting algorithm for better performance" assistant: "I've optimized the sorting algorithm. Here's the updated implementation:" <function call omitted for brevity> <commentary> After completing a performance optimization task, use the code-simplifier agent to ensure the optimized code is also clear and maintainable. </commentary> assistant: "Now I'll use the code-simplifier agent to ensure the optimized code is also clear and follows our coding standards" </example>

Opus

Pinned to the most capable model — slower and more expensive per delegation.

Default effort

No reasoning budget declared.

Separate context

Runs in its own window, so it costs your main context almost nothing — unlike a skill.

Its system prompt

46 lines

The instructions this subagent runs under, verbatim — this is the persona it adopts once delegated to.
