Find Dead Code

Find Dead Code

Scans the index for code with no references -- candidates to delete. Reach for it before a cleanup pass or before removing something you suspect is unused.

Running it from the CLI

drag-lint find-deadcode [--kind method|function|...] [--include-private] [--db PATH]

--kind filters by symbol kind (for example method or function); --include-private also considers private members.

Reaching it in the IDE

drag-lint > Code Quality > Find Dead Code...

What it needs

The --db flag is optional -- drag-lint auto-resolves the project's index when omitted. An index must still exist.

Example

Illustrative only:

drag-lint find-deadcode --kind method --db C:\Projects\MyApp\_D-RAG\MyApp.sqlite

This would list methods in MyApp's index with no resolved references.
