Action Items
- Create
scripts/deprecated/directory for archived scripts - Move redundant log scripts to deprecated directory
- Verify duplicate scripts and consolidate where appropriate
- Move demo scripts to
scripts/demos/directory - Review battery-calibrate.sh for relevance
- Update documentation to reflect script organization
- Create script index/README in scripts directory
- Git commit strategy:
- Commit 1: Create new directory structure
- Commit 2: Move deprecated scripts
- Commit 3: Move demo scripts
- Commit 4: Update documentation
Metrics
- Total Scripts: 80+
- Core Scripts: 18
- To Archive: 5
- To Verify: 7
- To Move: 1
- Vendor Scripts: 30+ (do not modify)
- Estimated Cleanup: ~6-8 scripts to be archived
- Estimated Consolidation: 3-4 duplicate pairs to merge
Risk Assessment
Low Risk Actions:
- Moving scripts to deprecated directory (they remain accessible)
- Creating demo directory and moving demo scripts
- Adding documentation
Medium Risk Actions:
- Removing duplicate scripts (requires verification first)
- Consolidating similar scripts (requires testing)
High Risk Actions:
- None identified - all changes are reversible with git
Conclusion
The MEV Bot project has a comprehensive script collection with some redundancy primarily in log management. The introduction of scripts/log-manager.sh as a production-grade log management system supersedes several legacy scripts. The recommended cleanup will:
- Improve maintainability by reducing script count
- Reduce confusion by removing duplicates
- Enhance organization with clear directory structure
- Preserve history by using git for moves/archiving
- Maintain safety by keeping deprecated scripts accessible
All cleanup actions are reversible and low-risk, making this an ideal time to improve project organization.
