# Code Stats
Analyzes the current workspace to provide development metrics.
Usage
```bash node skills/code-stats/index.js [path] ```
Defaults to current working directory if path is omitted.
Output
- JSON object with:
- `files`: Total file count.
- `lines`: Total line count (approximate).
- `byExt`: Breakdown by file extension.
Use Cases
- Generate development metrics for the current workspace including line counts and file stats
- Analyze codebase size and composition by language and directory
- Track codebase growth over time by running periodic stat snapshots
- Compare project sizes across repositories for resource planning
- Identify disproportionately large files or directories that may need refactoring
Pros & Cons
Pros
- +Simple Node.js script that runs with a single command and no configuration
- +Defaults to current working directory for zero-friction usage
- +Provides quantitative metrics useful for planning and reporting
Cons
- -Only counts basic metrics — no complexity analysis or quality scoring
- -Only available on claude-code and openclaw platforms
- -Node.js runtime required even for analyzing non-JavaScript projects
