SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps users create a structured and safe plan for refactoring code across multiple files, ensuring dependencies are managed and rollback strategies are in place.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Codebase Understanding: Assists in searching and understanding the current state of the codebase.
  • Dependency Mapping: Identifies affected files and their interdependencies.
  • Phased Execution: Outlines a step-by-step execution plan, often prioritizing changes like types and interfaces before implementations.
  • Verification & Rollback: Includes steps for verifying changes and a clear plan for rolling back if issues arise.
  • Use Case: A developer needs to update a core data model and its related services. This Skill can help them map out the safest order to make these changes, ensuring that dependent services are updated correctly and that they can revert if a critical issue is discovered.

Quick Start

Use the refactor-plan skill to plan a refactor for updating the user authentication module.

Frequently Asked Questions about refactor-plan

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I plan a multi-file refactoring without breaking dependencies?▼

Multi-file refactoring requires mapping interdependencies and sequencing changes in phases, prioritizing types and interfaces before implementations. This approach generates a structured plan with current state analysis, target state definition, and safe execution steps to prevent breaking dependent code.

What is the safest way to sequence code modernization across multiple files?▼

Code modernization sequencing prioritizes structural changes like types and interfaces before implementation updates. A safe sequence identifies affected files, outlines step-by-step execution, and includes verification checkpoints to ensure each phase succeeds before proceeding.

How do I create a rollback strategy for a complex codebase refactor?▼

A rollback strategy for codebase refactoring defines clear reversion steps if critical issues are discovered during execution. It is generated alongside phased execution plans, ensuring that each modification step has a corresponding recovery action to revert the codebase safely.

Can I use a structured refactoring plan for updating core data models and related services?▼

A structured refactoring plan is ideal for updating core data models and related services. It maps the safest order for modifications, ensuring dependent services are updated correctly with managed dependencies, verification steps, and a rollback plan.

What should be included in a multi-file code modification execution plan?▼

A multi-file code modification execution plan should include current state analysis, target state definition, affected file identification with dependency mapping, phased execution steps with verification, and a rollback strategy to ensure safe and structured code changes.
