bencium/vanity-engineering-review
Reviews codebases, architectures, PRs, and technical plans for vanity engineering — code and systems built for the developer's ego, resume, or intellectual pleasure rather than delivering user or business value. Triggers on: "review this code", "is this over-engineered", "code review", "architecture review", "complexity audit", "vanity check", "is this necessary", "simplify this", "tech debt review", or any request to evaluate whether code or architecture is justified by actual requirements. Also trigger when the user shares a codebase and asks for feedback, when discussing framework/library choices, when reviewing PRs, or when someone is debating whether to refactor or rebuild. Nudge activation when you detect patterns of unnecessary abstraction, premature optimization, or resume-driven technology choices in code the user shares — even if they haven't asked for a vanity review.
