Action Items

  1. Create scripts/deprecated/ directory for archived scripts
  2. Move redundant log scripts to deprecated directory
  3. Verify duplicate scripts and consolidate where appropriate
  4. Move demo scripts to scripts/demos/ directory
  5. Review battery-calibrate.sh for relevance
  6. Update documentation to reflect script organization
  7. Create script index/README in scripts directory
  8. 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:

  1. Improve maintainability by reducing script count
  2. Reduce confusion by removing duplicates
  3. Enhance organization with clear directory structure
  4. Preserve history by using git for moves/archiving
  5. Maintain safety by keeping deprecated scripts accessible

All cleanup actions are reversible and low-risk, making this an ideal time to improve project organization.
