refactor-projectSafety 78Repository

Executes automated project-wide refactoring with a focus on cross-file optimization. This skill should be used when the user asks for project-wide refactoring, cross-file simplification, consistency standardization across the codebase, duplication reduction, or invokes "/refactor-project".

Refactor Project Command

Execute automated project-wide refactoring using refactor:code-simplifier agent with cross-file optimization focus.

Pre-operation Checks

Goal: Ensure project-wide execution is explicit and reproducible.

Actions:

  1. Run git rev-parse --is-inside-work-tree; if false, inform user that project-wide mode requires a git workspace
  2. Record current revision with git rev-parse --short HEAD and include it in final summary for rollback context
  3. Ignore command arguments and proceed with full-project discovery

Phase 1: Analyze Project Scope

Goal: Discover all code files and display scope summary.

Actions:

  1. Find all code files using Glob patterns for common extensions
  2. Filter out node_modules/, .git/, dist/, build/, vendor/, .venv/
  3. Group files by language/extension and identify primary source directories
  4. Display scope summary (file count, languages, directories) then proceed automatically

See references/scope-analysis.md for exclusion patterns and edge cases.

Phase 2: Launch Refactoring Agent

Goal: Execute refactor:code-simplifier agent with project-wide scope and cross-file focus.

Actions:

  1. Launch refactor:code-simplifier agent with all discovered code files
  2. Pass cross-file optimization emphasis: duplication reduction, consistent patterns
  3. Pass aggressive mode flag for legacy code removal
  4. Agent auto-loads refactor:best-practices skill and applies language-specific patterns

See references/agent-configuration.md for detailed Task parameters.

Phase 3: Summary

Goal: Report comprehensive summary of project-wide changes.

Actions:

  1. Report total files refactored (count and percentage of project)
  2. List changes categorized by improvement type and cross-file improvements made
  3. List best practices applied and legacy code removed
  4. Suggest test suite to run and recommend reviewing changes in logical groups
  5. Provide safer rollback command tied to recorded baseline (for example: git restore --worktree --staged .)

See references/output-requirements.md for detailed summary format.

Requirements

  • Execute immediately after displaying scope (no confirmation needed)
  • Refactor entire project across all discovered code files
  • Prioritize cross-file duplication reduction and consistent patterns
  • Preserve behavior and public interfaces unless user explicitly requests a behavior change

AI Quality Score

72/100Analyzed 3/22/2026

Well-structured refactoring skill with clear phases and good actionability. Has clear 'when to use' triggers and structured steps. Minor issues: tags don't match skill purpose (ci-cd/testing vs refactoring), references external files that may not exist, and deeply nested path suggests potential internal-only usage. The skill provides comprehensive project-wide refactoring workflow with safety measures like git revision recording.
