safe-refactoring
safe-refactoring is a Refactoring & code quality skill for AI agents, published by UnpaidAttention in the fable5-methodology repository on GitHub. Skillspace rates safe-refactoring D (65/100) and it passed the safety scan; the rating is based on static analysis only.
Execute behavior-preserving code restructuring — establish a test safety net first, apply the smallest mechanical transformations in sequence, verify after each, and refuse refactors that lack the coverage to be done safely. Trigger this when the user asks to "refactor", "clean up", "simplify", "restructure", "extract", or "rename" existing working code, or when you initiate a structural improvement yourself. Do NOT trigger for changes meant to alter behavior (that's a feature/fix — use task-planning), or for diagnosing why code is broken (use debugging-methodology) — a refactor by definition starts from green.
