name = "debride"
description = "Static analyzer that finds methods which are defined but never called within the analyzed paths. Parses Ruby source via prism (or ruby_parser with --legacy); does not execute application code. Output goes to stdout; --json or --yaml change format. -r/--rails enables Rails-aware heuristics. -e/--exclude skips paths; -w/--whitelist skips a list of method names; -m/--minimum sets the minimum-uses threshold. Companion binaries `debride_rm` (which auto-removes flagged methods) and `debride_rails_whitelist` ship with the same gem but are separate executables and are not part of this allowlist. Slow but steady seattlerb maintenance."
