Description

C and C++ source files can be analyzed to find unnecessary or missing includes using clang. It helps developers reduce build dependencies and keep include lists closer to what the code actually uses.

The tool suggests code changes but does not understand every project convention. Review diffs and run builds/tests before accepting include rewrites.
