Full guide: `rules/core/simplicity-over-complexity.md` ## Signals → Actions ```toon signals[5]{signal,action}: Deep nesting (>3 levels),Flatten with early returns Long function (>30 lines),Extract smaller functions Complex conditionals,Use lookup tables Over-abstraction,Inline single-use code Premature optimization,Remove unless profiled ``` ## Targets ```toon targets[5]{metric,max}: Cyclomatic complexity,10 Nesting depth,3 Function length,30 lines File length,300 lines Parameters,3 ``` ## Before Writing Code Ask 1. Can I delete this? (unused code, dead branches) 2. Can I inline this? (single-use abstractions) 3. Can I flatten this? (nested conditions) 4. Can I use built-ins? (standard library) 5. Is this needed now? (YAGNI)
