clean-code-ch06-objects-and-data-structures

To find Law of Demeter violations, this Skill analyzes your codebase to flag train wrecks and deep navigation chains where objects call methods beyond their allowed direct references. It surfaces these risk areas to guide targeted refactoring.

The object and data structure distinction centers on data abstraction: objects hide internal state behind behavior, while data structures expose data. This Skill identifies object/data anti-symmetry by flagging classes that improperly mix both patterns.

To identify hybrid classes and Active Record misuse during code review, this Skill flags Data Transfer Objects containing business logic and classes mixing procedural data exposure with object behavior. It then recommends architectural adjustments to resolve these anti-patterns.

To check for data abstraction violations, this Skill scans object-oriented code for getters and setters exposing internal fields and evaluates classes for overexposed data. It enforces clean object-data boundaries by highlighting these structural leaks.

Yes, you can automate refactoring guidance for DTOs with business logic in OO projects by running this Skill. It targets Data Transfer Objects containing business logic and generates recommendations for architectural adjustments to properly separate data from behavior.
