thoughtbox:refactor

thoughtbox:refactor is a Refactoring & code quality skill for AI agents, published by Kastalien-Research in the thoughtbox repository on GitHub. Skillspace rates thoughtbox:refactor D (62/100) and it passed the safety scan; the rating is based on static analysis only.

Friction-gated refactoring using the Theseus protocol. Prevents scope creep and refactoring fugue state by enforcing file scope boundaries, visa-based expansion, checkpoint audits, and a brittleness counter. Use when refactoring code, restructuring modules, renaming across files, or any task where "structure changes but behavior must stay the same". Triggers on "refactor", "restructure", "rename across", "extract module", "move code", or when a change touches 3+ files without adding features.
