Function: codeShape()

codeShape(code): string

Defined in: src/core/codeRunnerTool.ts:198

A program reduced to its CALL SHAPE: which operations, in what order.

Strings, numbers, comments and identifier names are what make two runs of the same computation look different, and they are also the half that quotes the data — so removing them is both what makes the hash group correctly and what makes it safe to emit. groupBy(rows, 'wwn') and groupBy(items, 'serial') reduce to one shape; a totals-then-threshold written eleven times this month hashes to one value eleven times, which is the signal worth having.

The callee names are KEPT, and that is the point. The operation IS the signal. The first version of this erased them too, which made groupBy and sortBy one shape and collapsed the whole backlog into a single meaningless bucket — caught by a clean-room probe on the published package, and missed by a test whose two examples happened to differ elsewhere as well. A function name is code, not data; the data lives in the literals and the variable names, and those are what go.

Deliberately crude — a lexical reduction, not a parse. It has to work on whatever language the runner was configured for, and a wrong parse would be a worse answer than a coarse one.
