SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Analyze code and suggest refactoring improvements with agent-driven analysis. Runs in the current working tree by default — set worktree.enabled: true in .claude/configuration.yml to isolate work in a git worktree.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Agent orchestration: coordinates specialized sub-agents to explore context, analyze code, and propose safe refactorings.
  • Context-aware analysis: detects SRP violations, dependency inversion opportunities, and duplication across languages.
  • Non-destructive recommendations: prioritizes changes with low risk and preserves existing behavior.

Quick Start

Analyze the target project to surface high-impact refactoring opportunities while preserving functionality.

Frequently Asked Questions about refactor

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I find refactoring opportunities in a multi-language codebase?▼

This Skill analyzes your codebase using agent-driven analysis to identify refactoring opportunities across multi-language projects. It detects SRP violations, dependency inversion opportunities, and duplication while preserving existing behavior.

What is the best way to detect code smells without breaking existing functionality?▼

The best way to detect code smells without breaking functionality is using non-destructive refactoring recommendations. This Skill prioritizes low-risk changes and requires validated test coverage before applying any fixes to preserve behavior.

How does agent-driven static analysis identify dependency inversion opportunities?▼

Agent-driven static analysis identifies dependency inversion opportunities by orchestrating specialized sub-agents to explore context and analyze code structure across files. It surfaces architectural improvements through structured, non-destructive recommendations.

Can I analyze code for refactoring safely in an isolated git worktree?▼

Yes, you can safely isolate refactoring analysis in a git worktree by setting `worktree.enabled: true` in `.claude/configuration.yml`. This isolates proposed changes from your current working tree during analysis.

Does code refactoring require validated test coverage before applying changes?▼

Yes, this refactoring process requires validated test coverage before applying any fixes. It mandates non-destructive changes and validated tests to guarantee existing behavior is fully preserved during modifications.
