It's like one sentence.
Claude runs this every day.
It'll look for dead code across all the code bases using static and dynamic analysis.
We didn't prompt that.
It just kind of figured it out.
And it'll put up a request every day to delete the dead code.
Another example is shipping experiments that should go out.
So the experiment's already out to 100%.
It'll delete it from the code base and it'll just ship it.
Another one is writing tests for areas of the code base that need test coverage.
Another one is deleting tests that don't need to be there because they were kind of useless tests added by older models or added by people at some point.
One that I really love is this,
I forget what we called it.
I think we called it abstraction police.
And the idea is there are often in a big code base, there's kind of the same abstraction and it appears multiple times.
And if you kind of squint, it actually maybe should just be the same abstraction, but kind of over time, for whatever reason, you rebuilt it multiple ways in different parts of the code base.
So Quad kind of goes out every day across all our code bases.
It finds these nearly duplicated abstractions and it unifies them.
And so now we have every day, maybe 20 or 30 of these routines.
It's running across all of our code bases and
