dead-code-eliminator
From the author
Identify and analyze unused or redundant code including unused functions/methods, unused variables/imports, unreachable code, and redundant conditions. Use when cleaning up codebases, improving maintainability, reducing technical debt, or conducting code quality audits. Analyzes Python code using AST analysis and produces markdown reports listing dead code locations with line numbers, severity ratings, and recommendations. Triggers when users ask to find dead code, remove unused code, identify unused imports, find unreachable code, or clean up redundant logic.
