This Skill automates the execution of large refactoring tasks by breaking them down into sequential, verifiable commits on a dedicated branch, ensuring continuous integration and minimizing disruption.
BT-123) needs to be applied to the codebase, this skill will branch off main, implement each sub-task as a commit, verify CI, and update a single PR until the entire epic is complete.Use the do-refactor skill to execute the refactoring epic BT-123.

To automate a refactoring epic, this Skill branches off main and implements child issues sequentially as individual commits. It handles dependency ordering and updates a single Pull Request incrementally until the entire epic is complete.
Continuous integration verification runs automatically after each child issue commit to ensure code stability. If CI checks fail, the Skill provides graceful failure recovery to prevent disrupting the overall refactoring epic execution.
Yes, you can execute a refactoring epic on a single dedicated Git branch. This approach minimizes disruption to other development work by isolating all sequential child issue implementations and CI verifications on one branch.
The best way to handle dependency ordering is using automated prerequisite validation. The Skill evaluates child issue dependencies before execution, ensuring sequential implementation maintains behavioral preservation and correct commit ordering.
Using a single Pull Request for a refactoring epic minimizes disruption and ensures behavioral preservation. The Skill creates and incrementally updates one PR, providing a unified view of all sequential commits and CI verification results.
If CI verification fails during sequential refactoring, the Skill initiates graceful failure recovery. This prevents incomplete commits from breaking the dedicated branch while preserving the already verified child issue implementations.
