SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Refactoring planning for large, cross-dependent codebases to reduce coupling, duplication, and complexity without destabilizing behavior.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Incremental decomposition: identify candidate modules and clean boundaries without destabilizing behavior.
  • Risk-aware option generation: present multiple refactor options with scope, effort, risk, and reversibility.
  • Invariant and rollout planning: capture stable inputs/outputs and define rollback strategies for safe delivery.

Quick Start

Provide an initial repo assessment by listing hotspots, boundaries, and dependencies; then generate two to three concrete, incremental refactor options with trade-offs and acceptance criteria.

FAQPage Schema
How do I safely modularize a large codebase without altering behavior?

Safe modularization involves identifying candidate modules, restoring architectural boundaries, and producing incremental, reversible change plans that maintain current behavior throughout the process.

What's the best way to plan incremental refactoring for cross-dependent code?

The best approach is generating two to three concrete, incremental refactor options with explicit trade-offs, allowing you to decompose cross-dependent code while managing risk and maintaining reversibility.

How does invariant capture work during architectural cleanup?

Invariant capture during architectural cleanup identifies and records stable inputs and outputs before refactoring, ensuring that incremental decomposition and boundary restoration do not alter the system's fundamental behavior.

Can I generate rollback strategies for code-splitting in high-risk areas?

Yes, you can generate rollback strategies for code-splitting by identifying coupling hotspots first, then producing reversible change plans that define explicit rollback steps for safe delivery in high-risk areas.

When do I need risk-aware refactor options for software decomposition?

You need risk-aware refactor options when decomposing large, cross-dependent codebases where reducing coupling and complexity requires understanding scope, effort, and reversibility trade-offs to avoid destabilizing behavior.
