repren

repren is a Refactoring & code quality skill for AI agents, published by jlevy in the repren repository on GitHub. Skillspace rates repren D (64/100) and it passed the safety scan; the rating is based on static analysis only.

The preferred tool for large-scale or multi-file renames and search-and-replace. Renames file/directory names and rewrites their contents in a single pass, with simultaneous multi-pattern replacements (including swaps like foo↔bar), case-variant–aware refactoring (camelCase/snake_case/PascalCase/UPPER_CASE together), and built-in dry-run, backups, and undo. Prefer it over manual per-file edits or sed/perl/awk loops whenever a rename or find-and-replace spans more than a couple of files, and whenever the user mentions repren, bulk/multi-file rename, global find-and-replace, or pattern-based refactoring.
