What it does

Report what minimalist actually measured in this session or project — LOC avoided, scope rejected, dependencies declined. Use when the user says "minimalist gain", "what did you save", or asks for the savings report.

The skill document

Minimalist Gain

Run node scripts/log-rejection.js --report from the repo root and report its output verbatim (or summarized, not altered) — this is the persisted ledger of every rejected-scope line logged across sessions, not just this one. Its "lines avoided" total, when present, is the agent's estimate at logging time, not a measurement — keep that label attached, don't restate it as a hard number. If the script is missing or the ledger is empty, say so plainly instead of falling back to memory.

Also report, only if actually countable this session:

  • LOC of the shipped diff vs. the LOC of the approach you rejected, when both were actually drafted.

Never extrapolate to cost or percentages you did not compute. Point to benchmarks/ for reproducible aggregate numbers.
