Renaming a Pixie tool often creates broken references, misaligned IDs, and outdated tool metadata. This skill provides a safe, auditable flow to rename a tool's id, folder name, and related references across the repository and validation layer.
Provide the old_id and new_id when prompted to initiate the rename flow.

To safely rename a Pixie tool, you update its id, folder name, and tool.json file. The process includes preflight checks, stopping running tools, rewriting pixie.db references, and validating the repository structure.
When changing a tool's id, historical references in pixie.db for runs, state, and validation are rewritten. This prevents broken links and ensures runtime state remains connected to the newly renamed tool.
You need to update tool.json during a repository rename to preserve the display name and metadata. This aligns the tool's internal id with its new folder name on disk and maintains configuration consistency.
You should stop a running tool before renaming its folder to prevent runtime conflicts. Stopping the tool ensures the filesystem and pixie.db can be updated without corrupting active state or breaking validation.
You validate a tool slug change by running the built-in validator after rewriting folder names and database references. This ensures the new id and tool.json metadata are consistent with the repository structure.
Yes, you can fix naming conflicts by migrating tool ids in a Pixie repository. The rename process verifies uniqueness during preflight checks and updates the filesystem and tool.json to resolve the conflict safely.
