jscpd

jscpd

Use this skill before dry-refactoring when you need to identify copy/paste duplication in the codebase.

Workflow

1. Run jscpd on the requested path.
2. Start with strict defaults to reduce noise.
3. If output is too noisy, increase minimum token/line thresholds.
4. Summarize findings as prioritized clone groups.
5. Hand off highest-impact clone groups to dry-refactoring.

Recommended command patterns

npx jscpd@4.0.5 --reporters ai --min-lines 10 --min-tokens 80 <path>

For full-repo scan:

npx jscpd@4.0.5 -c jscpd.json .
