refactor-code

To refactor code without changing observable behaviour, apply small, auditable diffs that address a single review issue at a time, then run tests and type checks to confirm no behavioural changes occurred.

The best way to fix blocking code review issues is applying targeted refactors that address one issue at a time, ensuring each change is validated by passing tests and type checks before moving to the next.

You need to enforce one-issue-at-a-time changes during a code refactor when applying review-derived fixes across modules, as this maintains clear commit history and traceability while preserving observable behaviour.

Test validation ensures behaviour preservation during code changes by requiring the test suite and type checks to pass after each targeted refactor, confirming that the original observable behaviour remains intact.

Yes, you can apply targeted refactors to a codebase undergoing review workflows by addressing identified warnings and style suggestions, validating each fix with tests to ensure no observable behaviour changes.

A limitation of refactoring code without changing behaviour is that changes are constrained to one issue at a time and must pass tests and type checks, which may slow down large-scale structural modifications.
