Rank\nfindings biggest cut first.\n\n## Tags\n\nSame as ponytail-review:\n\n- `delete:` dead code, unused flexibility, speculative feature. Replacement: nothing.\n- `stdlib:` hand-rolled thing the standard library ships. Name the function.\n- `native:` dependency or code doing what the platform already does. Name the feature.\n- `yagni:` abstraction with one implementation, config nobody sets, layer with one caller.\n- `shrink:` same logic, fewer lines. Show the shorter form.\n\n## Hunt\n\nDeps the stdlib or platform already ships, single-implementation interfaces,\nfactories with one product, wrappers that only delegate, files exporting one\nthing, dead flags and config, hand-rolled stdlib.\n\n## Output\n\nOne line per finding, ranked: `<tag> <what to cut>. <replacement>. [path]`.\nEnd with `net: -<N> lines, -<M> deps possible.` Nothing to cut: `Lean already. Ship.`\n\n## Boundaries\n\nScope: over-engineering and complexity only. Correctness bugs, security holes,\nand performance are explicitly out of scope. Route them to a normal review\npass. Lists findings, applies nothing. One-shot.\n\"stop ponytail-audit\" or \"normal mode\" to revert.\n"
