FAQPage Schema

How do I identify refactoring opportunities to improve codebase architecture and testability?▼

To improve codebase architecture, this skill scans your project to identify areas where depth and testability can be increased, presenting these refactoring opportunities visually for discussion and implementation.

What is codebase deepening and how does it enhance software architecture?▼

Codebase deepening is a design technique that increases structural depth to enhance testability and AI navigation, isolating dependencies and simplifying complex modules for improved software architecture.

How do I generate visual reports for codebase refactoring?▼

You can generate visual reports for codebase refactoring by using this skill to output a comprehensive HTML report with before/after visuals, leveraging Tailwind and Mermaid to illustrate architectural changes.

Do I need a CONTEXT.md domain model file to scan for architectural improvements?▼

Yes, the architectural scanning process leverages the domain model defined in your CONTEXT.md file, alongside the design vocabulary from the codebase-design skill, to accurately identify and tailor deepening opportunities.

Can I iteratively select and refine architectural enhancements after a codebase scan?▼

Yes, you can engage in an iterative process to explore, select, and refine the best architectural enhancements. The tool facilitates discussions to help you implement the most suitable refactoring candidates.

What are the limitations of using automated visual reports for architectural refactoring?▼

While automated visual reports identify deepening opportunities using Tailwind and Mermaid, they serve as a facilitation tool for discussion; actual implementation requires manual refactoring guided by the generated before/after architectural visuals.
