Research direction

Read plugins/source-control/skills/babysit-prs/scripts/babysit_risk.py and identify the functions that start in the first half of the file; limit changes to those functions. Review them against the four /simplify checks in the issue, preserving all listed interfaces and behavior. Done means the file is shorter and clearer, the required changelog fragment is added, and the relevant CI status is green.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Agent Brief

Type: Task
Summary: Simplify these 1 files without changing their behavior (part of the /simplify epic).

Current behavior:
The files below work as they do on main. Their code changes; what they do does not.

Desired behavior:
Review the files through /simplify's four checks (reuse of existing helpers, simplification, efficiency, right level of abstraction), using subagents if useful, and apply the fixes. The files end up shorter and clearer, and whatever runs them gets the same results.

Files:

  • plugins/source-control/skills/babysit-prs/scripts/babysit_risk.py

Key interfaces:

  • Outputs, exit codes, written files and printed messages of these files: unchanged.
  • Command-line flags, exported names and anything another file calls: unchanged.

Acceptance criteria:

  • Behavior is unchanged: same outputs, exit codes, written files, printed text, command-line flags and exported names; no listed file renamed, moved or deleted.
  • The diff edits only the listed files, the lines of a test that assert on them when the change breaks that assertion, and changelog fragments.
  • The pull request stays within 400 changed lines and 15 hand-edited files (generated shared copies and changelog fragments not counted); anything beyond goes under ## Follow-ups in the pull request body.
  • ci-status is green.
  • Each touched plugin (source-control) has a fragment from scripts/new-changelog-fragment.sh <plugin> patch whose body is ### Changed and the line "Internal simplification, no behavior change."
  • Only the jobs or functions that start in range 1 of 2 equal line ranges of the file, measured when this part starts, are changed.

Out of scope:

  • Moving code between files or deduping across them: the sub-epic's restructuring pass does that after these chunks merge.
  • Tests beyond the asserted lines a change breaks, eval cases, fixtures, and skill and agent text.
  • Files listed in other chunks.
