What does thermo-nuclear-code-quality-review do?

thermo-nuclear-code-quality-review is a skill from Cursor's plugin set that runs a harsh code quality audit of the current branch's changes. It only runs when you call it by name. Claude looks for restructurings that keep behavior but delete whole branches, layers or helpers, and treats several things as blockers: a file pushed past 1,000 lines, ad hoc conditionals in unrelated flows, thin wrappers, needless casts or any, duplicated helpers, and logic in the wrong layer. Findings are ranked from structural regressions down to legibility, with few high-conviction comments instead of nits. It withholds approval while an obvious simpler path goes unused.

When should you use thermo-nuclear-code-quality-review?

Use it when

  • A large branch has grown messy before merge
  • You suspect a simpler design exists for a change
  • Files are creeping past 1,000 lines

  • You need bugs or security issues found
  • You want a light review of a small change

What it needs and what it can touch
