SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps teams reduce code smells and technical debt by applying safe, incremental refactorings that preserve external behavior.

Core Features & Use Cases

Extract Method: Break down large methods into smaller, focused functions to improve readability.
Inline Method: Simplify code by removing unnecessary abstractions when a method is trivially delegating.
Replace Temp with Query: Improve readability by extracting computed values into descriptive methods.
Refactoring Workflow: Plan, implement, and test changes incrementally to maintain backwards compatibility.

Quick Start

Start with a small, well-tested module. Identify a long method, extract a named helper, then run the test suite to ensure behavior remains unchanged.
