specops-refactor-plan

Plan a codebase refactor by analyzing a defined source-folder and explicit refactor goal to generate a structured SpecOps strategy. This process captures source, tests, docs, schemas, and operational signals within the target boundary to preserve behavior while outlining the path to change.

A comprehensive refactor plan should include purpose, interfaces, data models, behavioral contracts, state management, dependencies, side effects, error handling, integration, edge cases, refactor objectives, strategy, risk, compatibility, and validation sections to fully preserve system behavior.

Create a SpecOps strategy for module extraction by defining the target folder and refactor goal, collecting evidence, and setting boundaries. The resulting plan routes incremental refactors using risk-aware decisions to align architecture safely.

Yes, you can scope architecture refactoring to a single target folder. The plan captures all source, tests, configs, and operational signals within that specific folder boundary to ensure comprehensive requirements coverage.

The best way to document refactor risks and validation steps is through a structured sectioned plan. This plan explicitly outlines risk assessment, compatibility constraints, and validation criteria alongside behavioral contracts and edge cases.

Your refactor plan misses edge cases and integration points because it lacks a comprehensive SpecOps structure. Capturing source, tests, operational signals, and behavioral contracts within the target folder boundary ensures these constraints are satisfied.
