FAQPage Schema
How do I automate code refactoring using an improvement plan file?▼

Automating code refactoring involves parsing an improvement plan file to extract modification instructions, then executing file edits and new file creation automatically to apply the structured changes.

How are conflict resolution and priority handled when applying overlapping skill updates?▼

Conflict resolution for overlapping skill updates is handled by prioritizing critical fixes, intelligently merging changes from the improvement plan to ensure the most important modifications take precedence.

What is the best way to execute structured improvements from a quality review plan?▼

The best way to execute structured improvements is to use an automated skill improver that parses the plan file, manages file edits, creates new files, and generates a detailed update report.

Can I move large amounts of content to reference files for progressive disclosure during refactoring?▼

Yes, you can move content to reference files during refactoring to support progressive disclosure, ensuring the main skill files remain concise while detailed information is preserved in separate references.

Do I need an improvement plan file before I can start automating skill fixes?▼

Yes, you need an improvement plan file generated by a quality review process before starting automated skill fixes, as the automation relies on parsing the modification instructions contained within that plan.
