What problem does it solve?
Refactoring should improve code clarity, performance, or maintainability without changing observable behavior. This skill ensures refactorings are small, testable, and verifiable.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Small, incremental changes with isolated commits
- Write characterization tests to lock current behavior
- Plan and execute step-by-step refactors with verification
Quick Start
Capture baseline behavior with tests, write characterization tests for current behavior, plan small incremental steps, implement changes one at a time, and run the full test suite after each step to ensure behavior is preserved.
