Hard Limits (Zero-Tolerance)

Hard Limits (Zero-Tolerance)

Metric Hard Limit Target Action When Exceeded
File length 400 lines 200 lines Split by responsibility
Function length 50 lines 20–30 lines Extract helpers
Class public methods 10 methods 5–7 methods Extract sub-classes or use composition
Nesting depth 4 levels 2 levels Extract guard clauses or sub-functions
Import count per file 20 imports 10–12 imports Sign of a God Object — split the file

Exception 1 — Legacy solver: Low-churn files with full test coverage may remain until a dedicated refactor WRK is approved. Document with # noqa: clean-code at the top of the file.

Exception 2 — Pure declarative data: Files whose content is ≥95% frozen dataclass/dict literals with zero logic (no conditionals, no I/O, no imports from sibling modules) are exempt from the 400L limit. The logic module that consumes them must still be ≤400L. Example: activity_definitions.py (1,419L) — 14 return Activity(...) builder functions. Test: if every function body is a single return SomeDataclass(...), it is a data file, not a God Object.
