Refactoring Planner Skill

Purpose

Plan refactoring without accidental behavior change.

When to use

Use before broad cleanup, architecture alignment, package restructuring, or modernization.

Inputs to inspect first

• CLAUDE.md
• docs/AI_CONTEXT.md
• docs/PROJECT_GLOSSARY.md
• docs/FEATURE_INVENTORY.md
• relevant source paths

Rules

• Inspect source evidence before answering.
• Distinguish facts, assumptions, recommendations, unknowns, blockers, and validation status.
• Do not modify source code unless the user explicitly asks.
• Do not claim tests/builds/deployments ran unless they actually ran.

Output

Produce:

1. direct answer
2. evidence paths
3. confidence
4. unknowns
5. next action
