## Description

fuckitjs is an automated code pruning utility and error recovery tool for JavaScript. It is designed to isolate and remove breaking lines of code through repeated evaluation and selective excision to ensure a script executes successfully.

The tool identifies and excises problematic code segments by iteratively evaluating scripts until runtime crashes are eliminated. It employs a process of identifying and slicing out specific failing lines to mitigate errors and allow a script to run to completion.

This capability surface covers automated code cleaning, dynamic script debugging, and JavaScript error mitigation through the removal of breaking logic.
