refactor-validation

name	refactor-validation
description	This skill should be used when the user asks to verify a refactor is done correctly — e.g. 'did I break anything', 'is this refactor complete', 'validate this change meets modern standards' — as the final gate.

Refactor Validation

Validation layers for modernization: behavioral parity, modern quality, structural.

Layers

• Behavioral: contracts, tests, ./build.sh check, check-parity pass.
• Modern: apply patterns from modern-patterns, no legacy smells.
• Structural: boundaries clean, no god files, explicit over implicit.

Additional Resources

• references/validation-checklist.md

Run the validation skill + modern-refactorer agent review as final step.
