Analyzes a codebase to identify technical debt and plan incremental, safe refactors that preserve behavior and reduce risk.
Inspect your project with the skill to generate a concrete refactor plan.
High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.
To plan a safe code refactor, you must analyze the blast radius and ensure baselined tests pass. This skill generates an incremental refactoring plan with before-and-after snapshots and a documented rollback strategy to preserve behavior.
Common signals that indicate a need to refactor technical debt include code duplication, high complexity, dead code, and tight coupling. Detecting these triggers helps target specific improvements to reduce structural risk in your codebase.
Yes, you can use this on a mid-to-large codebase across multiple languages. It requires a mapped list of affected files and baselined tests to accurately assess impact and guide targeted improvements.
You generate a task file for an incremental refactoring plan by inspecting your project to identify debt signals. The skill produces a concrete, taskable plan complete with impact analysis and rollback steps.
To assess the blast radius of a code change, you need a map of affected files and baselined tests. This allows the impact analysis to evaluate test coverage and calculate the risk of targeted improvements.
