SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

For multi-file migrations, updates can leave intermediate states that break builds, tests, or downstream integrations. This skill ensures atomic, ordered changes so the repository always transitions from a proven baseline to the next.

Core Features & Use Cases

Build a dependency order to apply changes from Types → Producers → Consumers → Tests, guaranteeing correct sequencing.
Validate and enforce that 3+ file changes or shared contracts are applied atomically, preventing partial migrations.
Provide a batch execution workflow with verification and rollback readiness to minimize disruption during refactors.
Use across large-scale migrations where safety nets are required to maintain compatibility between producers and consumers.

Quick Start

Identify all target files, determine dependency order, and apply changes atomically in that sequence.

FAQPage Schema

How do I prevent broken builds during a multi-file refactor?▼

To prevent broken builds during a multi-file refactor, apply changes atomically in a strict dependency order, transitioning from Types to Producers to Consumers and Tests. This guarantees the repository always moves from a proven baseline to the next without intermediate breakage.

What is the correct dependency order for atomic code migrations?▼

The correct dependency order for atomic code migrations is Types, Producers, Consumers, and finally Tests. Enforcing this sequence ensures downstream compatibility and prevents partial migrations from breaking shared contracts.

How do I execute large-scale migrations with rollback readiness?▼

Large-scale migrations with rollback readiness require a batch execution workflow that applies ordered changes atomically. This approach validates downstream compatibility and provides safety nets to maintain producer and consumer compatibility during the refactor.

When do I need to enforce atomic commits for a multi-file refactor?▼

You need to enforce atomic commits for a multi-file refactor when updating three or more files or modifying shared contracts. This prevents partial migrations and ensures the repository transitions safely between baselines without breaking tests or integrations.

Does this approach work for batch executing changes across shared contracts?▼

Yes, this approach works for batch executing changes across shared contracts by validating and enforcing that updates are applied atomically. It sequences changes correctly and verifies downstream compatibility to minimize disruption during refactors.
