SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Safely planning and executing code refactors (rename, extract, move, split, or restructure) across a codebase to minimize breakages and drift.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Guided refactor workflows: step-by-step plans for common refactor tasks.
  • Impact analysis across dependencies: map dependents and effects before changes.
  • Context queries and planning: inspect code relationships and plan safe edits.
  • Auditable change plan: generate repeatable instructions and checks for reviews.

Quick Start

Provide a safe, end-to-end refactor plan for a target symbol or module using GitNexus.

FAQPage Schema
How do I safely rename a module across a codebase with multi-file dependencies?

To safely rename a module across a codebase with multi-file dependencies, you need impact analysis and context queries to map dependents before applying changes. This generates an auditable, step-by-step change plan to minimize breakages.

What is impact analysis in code refactoring and when do I need it?

Impact analysis in code refactoring maps dependents and effects across a codebase before changes. You need it when performing renames, extractions, splits, or moves in multi-file projects to reduce the risk of breakages.

How to extract and move code safely in a project with complex dependency graphs?

To extract and move code safely in a project with complex dependency graphs, inspect code relationships through context queries and generate a repeatable change plan. This guided workflow ensures sequential planning and accurate context lookup for reliable refactors.

Can I generate an auditable change plan for code restructuring tasks?

Yes, you can generate an auditable change plan for code restructuring tasks like renames, extractions, splits, and moves. The plan provides repeatable instructions and checks for reviews to ensure a safe, end-to-end refactor workflow.

What's the best way to plan code splits and moves without breaking dependents?

The best way to plan code splits and moves without breaking dependents is to use dependency graph queries for impact mapping before editing. This creates an auditable, step-by-step process that ensures accurate context lookup and safe execution.
