SKILL.md

Clever code impresses no one. Simple code ships faster, breaks less, and others can maintain it.

If you're proud of how clever your code is, simplify it:

| Clever one-liners | Unreadable, hard to debug | | Nested ternaries | Logic becomes opaque | | Over-abstraction | Indirection hides intent | | Premature optimization | Complexity without measured benefit | | Design pattern overuse | Patterns for patterns' sake |

Use when tempted to write clever code. Use when solution feels complex. Use when showing off skills instead of solving problems. Source: yanko-belov/code-craft.
