The code looks, at a glance, as bad as you expect.
Can you give an example? Looks fairly decent to me
1. Randomly peeking at process.argv and process.env all around. Other weird layering violations, too.
2. Tons of repeat code, eg. multiple ad-hoc implementations of hash functions / PRNGs.
3. Almost no high-level comments about structure - I assume all that lives in some CLAUDE.md instead.
