Lower Code Complexity

Reduces the cognitive complexity threshold by 2 and fixes all violations.

Step 1: Gather Requirements

  1. Read current threshold from eslint config (cognitive-complexity rule)
  2. Calculate new threshold: current - 2 (e.g., 15 -> 13)
  3. Run lint with the new threshold to find violations:
    bun run lint 2>&1 | grep "cognitive-complexity"
    
  4. Note for each violation:
    • File path and line number
    • Function name
    • Current complexity score

If no violations at new threshold, report success and exit.

Step 2: Compile Brief and Delegate

Compile the gathered information into a structured brief:

Reduce cognitive complexity threshold from [current] to [new].

Functions exceeding threshold (ordered by complexity):
1. [file:function] (complexity: X, target: [new]) - Line Y
2. ...

Configuration change: [eslint config path], cognitive-complexity from [current] to [new]

Refactoring strategies: extract functions, early returns, extract conditions, use lookup tables

Verification: `bun run lint 2>&1 | grep "cognitive-complexity" | wc -l` → Expected: 0

Invoke /plan-execute with this brief to create the implementation plan.
