+CODE SIMPLIFICATION REVIEW
+
+Start by examining the uncommitted changes in the current codebase.
+
+ANALYSIS STEPS:
+
+1. Identify what files have been modified or added
+2. Review the actual code changes
+3. Apply simplification principles below
+4. Refactor directly, then show what you changed
+
+SIMPLIFICATION PRINCIPLES:
+
+Complexity Reduction:
+
+- Remove abstraction layers that don't provide clear value
+- Replace complex patterns with straightforward implementations
+- Use language idioms over custom abstractions
+- If a simple function/lambda works, use it—don't create classes
+
+Test Proportionality:
+
+- Keep only tests for critical functionality and real edge cases
+- Delete tests for trivial operations, framework behavior, or hypothetical scenarios
+- For small projects: aim for \<10 meaningful tests per feature
+- Test code should be shorter than implementation
+
+Idiomatic Code:
+
+- Use conventional patterns for the language
+- Prioritize readability and maintainability
+- Apply the principle of least surprise
+
+Ask yourself: "What's the simplest version that actually works reliably?"
+
+Make the refactoring changes, then summarize what you simplified and why. Always finish by running `just ci-check` and ensuring that all checks and tests remain green.

+# Cargo.toml Standards for Stringy
+
+## Package Configuration
+
+- Use **Rust 2024 Edition** (MSRV: 1.91+) as specified in the package
+- Single crate structure (not a workspace)
+- Enforce lint policy via `[lints.rust]` configuration
+  - Forbid unsafe code globally
+  - Deny all warnings to preserve code quality
+
+Example `Cargo.toml` structure:
+
+```toml
+[package]
+name = "stringy"
+version = "0.1.0"
+edition = "2024"
+authors = ["UncleSp1d3r <unclesp1d3r@evilbitlabs.io>"]
+description = "A smarter alternative to the strings command that leverages format-specific knowledge"
+license = "Apache-2.0"
+repository = "https://github.com/EvilBit-Labs/StringyMcStringFace"
+homepage = "http://evilbitlabs.io/StringyMcStringFace/"
+keywords = ["binary", "strings", "analysis", "reverse-engineering", "malware"]
+categories = ["command-line-utilities", "development-tools"]
+
+[lib]
+name = "stringy"
+path = "src/lib.rs"

+warnings = "deny"

+
+## Dependencies
+
+- **Core dependencies**:
+
+  - `clap = { version = "4.5", features = ["derive"] }` - CLI argument parsing
+  - `goblin = "0.10"` - Binary format parsing (ELF, PE, Mach-O)
+  - `serde = { version = "1.0", features = ["derive"] }` - Serialization
+  - `serde_json = "1.0"` - JSON output
+  - `thiserror = "2.0"` - Structured error types
+
+- **Dev dependencies**:
+
+  - `criterion = "0.7"` - Benchmarking
+  - `insta = "1.0"` - Snapshot testing
+  - `tempfile = "3.8"` - Temporary file handling in tests
+
+## Build Profiles
+
+- Use `[profile.dist]` for distribution builds with LTO:
+
+```toml
+[profile.dist]
+inherits = "release"
+lto = "thin"
+```
+
+## Benchmarks
+
+- Define benchmarks in `[[bench]]` sections:
+
+```toml
+[[bench]]
+name = "elf"
+harness = false
+```
+
+## Package Metadata
+
+- Include proper license (Apache-2.0)
+- Provide clear description for binary analysis tool
+- Include relevant keywords for discoverability

+# Configuration Management Standards for Stringy
+
+## Configuration Architecture
+
+Stringy uses **CLI arguments only** for configuration via `clap`:
+
+- **Command-line flags** (only source of configuration)
+- **No configuration files** - all options specified via CLI
+- **No environment variables** - use CLI flags instead
+- **No hierarchical configuration** - simple argument parsing
+
+## CLI Configuration
+
+Define CLI arguments using `clap` with derive macros:
+
+```rust
+use clap::Parser;
+use std::path::PathBuf;
+
+#[derive(Parser)]
+#[command(name = "stringy")]
+#[command(about = "Extract meaningful strings from binary files")]
+struct Cli {
+    /// Input binary file to analyze
+    #[arg(value_name = "FILE")]
+    input: PathBuf,
+
+    /// Minimum string length
+    #[arg(short, long, default_value_t = 4)]
+    min_len: usize,
+
+    /// Output format (json, text, yara)
+    #[arg(short, long, default_value = "text")]
+    format: String,
+
+    /// Only extract strings matching specific tags
+    #[arg(long)]
+    only: Option<Vec<String>>,
+}
+```
+
+## Configuration Validation
+
+Validate CLI arguments:
+
+```rust
+impl Cli {
+    pub fn validate(&self) -> Result<(), StringyError> {
+        if self.min_len < 1 {
+            return Err(StringyError::ConfigError(
+                "Minimum string length must be at least 1".to_string(),
+            ));
+        }
+
+        let valid_formats = ["json", "text", "yara"];
+        if !valid_formats.contains(&self.format.as_str()) {
+            return Err(StringyError::ConfigError(format!(
+                "Invalid output format: {}. Must be one of: {:?}",
+                self.format, valid_formats
+            )));
+        }
+
+        Ok(())
+    }
+}
+```
+
+## No File-Based Configuration
+
+Stringy intentionally does not support configuration files to keep it simple and portable:
+
+- All configuration comes from CLI arguments
+- No need to manage config file locations
+- Works the same way across all environments
+- Easier to use in scripts and pipelines
