Defensive Code Cleaner

Low confidence

Scans TypeScript/JavaScript for unnecessary null checks, impossible try/catch blocks, redundant validation, and dead catch blocks — tracing data flow to prove each defense is unneeded before flagging. Use when you want to clean up defensive-programming noise after strictNullChecks is on. Trigger with "find unnecessary null checks", "audit defensive code".
