Reference for how the built-in /simplify command integrates with blueprint-dev workflows — when it runs, what it checks, and how it complements review agents.

How the built-in /simplify command fits into blueprint-dev workflows.
/simplify is a built-in Claude Code command that runs 3 specialized agents on your code:
| Agent | Focus | Examples |
|---|---|---|
| Reuse | Finds existing utilities you could use instead of new code | Project already has formatDate() but you wrote a new one |
| Quality | Spots hacky patterns, redundant state, copy-paste code | Duplicated validation logic, unnecessary wrapper functions |
| Efficiency | Identifies unnecessary work, missed concurrency, hot-path bloat | Sequential awaits that could be parallel, unused computations |
After analysis, /simplify auto-fixes the issues it finds. It modifies your code directly.
/bp:build — Step 5.5 runs /simplify after implementation, before presenting results. This catches reuse opportunities and quality issues while the code is fresh.
/bp:go — Step 7 suggests running /simplify after implementation completes.
/bp:review — Step 5 offers /simplify as a next step for auto-fixing P2/P3 quality and efficiency findings.
/bp:lfg — Phase 5 (Build) runs /simplify after implementation. Phase 6 (Review) suggests it for remaining findings.
/simplify and blueprint-dev's review agents serve different purposes:
| Aspect | /simplify | /bp:review agents |
|---|---|---|
| Action | Auto-fixes code | Reports findings |
| Scope | Reuse, quality, efficiency | Quality, tests, TBD, patterns |
| Output | Modified source files | P1/P2/P3 review report |
| When | During/after build | After build, before ship |
| Overlap | DRY violations, redundant code | Same issues + architecture, conventions |
They are complementary, not redundant:
/simplify handles the mechanical fixes (DRY, efficiency, reuse)/simplify first reduces noise in the review report — fewer P2/P3 findings for reviewers to wade through/bp:build
