clj-replace fixes brittle code edits by enabling format-agnostic replacement of Clojure or Babashka code when whitespace changes make str_replace fail.
Run a structural rename by telling your AI to invoke clj-replace as: bb /path/to/clj-replace.bb path/to/file.clj "old-string" "new-string".

To replace Clojure code after whitespace changes break str_replace, use structural replacement via S-expressions. This approach compares parsed code structure rather than literal text, ensuring formatting differences do not block matches while preserving original formatting.
Text-based code replacement breaks after running a Clojure formatter because tools like cljfmt or zprint change indentation and line breaks. Structural replacement matches S-expression nodes instead of literal strings, bypassing these whitespace inconsistencies.
To rename function parameters or local bindings in multi-line Clojure forms, apply structural edits using S-expression matching. Provide the filename, old-string, and new-string to parse and match code structure while preserving existing whitespace and style.
Yes, clj-replace works with Babashka scripts for structural refactoring. It parses and matches Clojure or Babashka code structure format-agnostically, requiring only the filename plus old-string and new-string parameters to execute reliable edits.
If your old-string pattern matches multiple S-expressions, the tool reports ambiguity with exact line and column locations. It fails safely and prompts you to provide a more specific old-string to ensure a precise structural replacement.
