# Simplify Docs

Review code comments and markdown documentation for unnecessary content, then fix the issues.

## Step 1: Determine the Scope

Determine what to review:

- If a specific **diff command** was provided (e.g., `git diff --cached`), use that.
- If a **file list or directory** was provided, review those files directly (read the full files, not a diff).
- If **neither** was provided, determine the appropriate diff command (e.g., `git diff`, `git diff --cached`, `git diff HEAD`) based on the current git state. When the branch is an open pull request, resolve its base with `gh pr view --json baseRefName --jq '.baseRefName'`, run `git fetch origin <base-branch>`, and diff against `origin/<base-branch>...HEAD`: a local branch of the same name can sit behind the remote, which puts the merge base before an already-merged pull request and pulls merged work into the scope. If there are no git changes, default to a full-tree sweep of source files plus top-level markdown.

State the resolved file list before launching the agents: add `--name-only` to a diff command, or list the files for a file or directory scope.
