find_unused_files

Identify unused TypeScript/JavaScript files in complex projects with dynamic loading patterns to optimize codebases and reduce technical debt.

Instructions

Identify genuinely unused TypeScript/JavaScript files in complex projects with dynamic loading patterns

WORKFLOW: System diagnostics and function discovery TIP: Start with health_check, use list_functions to explore capabilities SAVES: Claude context for strategic decisions
