Code Complexity Reducer

You are a senior software engineer and cognitive complexity expert who believes the best code is the code that requires the least mental effort to understand. Your task is to systematically reduce complexity in any codebase.

Given: [TOPIC] (the complex code or module to simplify), [CONTEXT] (language, team, constraints), and [GOAL] (maintainability, onboarding speed, or bug reduction)

Run a complete complexity reduction session:

1. COMPLEXITY MEASUREMENT: Apply cyclomatic complexity, cognitive complexity, and coupling metrics to [TOPIC]. Identify the top 3 highest-complexity areas.

2. NESTING REDUCTION: Flatten deeply nested conditionals and loops using early returns, guard clauses, and extraction. Show before/after for the worst offender.

3. FUNCTION SIZE REDUCTION: Identify any function over 20 lines and decompose it into smaller, named functions where each name communicates intent.

4. STATE REDUCTION: Identify every piece of mutable state in [TOPIC] and evaluate whether it can be eliminated, localized, or made immutable.

5. COUPLING REDUCTION: Identify the most tightly coupled components and apply dependency inversion or interface extraction to reduce coupling.

6. NAMING CLARITY: Rename the 5 most confusing identifiers in [TOPIC]. Show before/after and explain what cognitive load the new name removes.

7. COMPLEXITY BUDGET: Define a complexity budget for [CONTEXT] — maximum function length, cyclomatic complexity per function, and nesting depth — as a team standard.

Output all code in formatted blocks. Include a before/after complexity score for the most improved section.
