Script Refactorer

Modernizes legacy scripts into reliable, maintainable tools. Replaces deprecated patterns, adds error handling and input validation, converts callback spaghetti to async/await, and turns undocumented one-off hacks into proper CLI tools.

Activation Triggers

Use this skill when:

A bash/Node/Python script works but is fragile, undocumented, or hard to modify
Scripts use deprecated Node.js APIs (e.g., new Buffer(), url.parse(), fs.exists())
Callback-heavy Node.js code needs async/await conversion
Scripts lack error handling and fail silently or with cryptic messages
A script needs proper CLI argument parsing, help text, and exit codes
Legacy Python 2 patterns need updating to modern Python 3
Shell scripts lack set -euo pipefail and proper quoting

Do NOT use this skill for:

Rewriting scripts from scratch in a different language (use the appropriate language skill)
Building new CLI tools (use beautiful-cli-design)
Large application refactoring (use refactor-architect for planning, refactoring-surgeon for execution)
Performance optimization of scripts (use performance-profiling)

Core Capabilities

1. Bash Script Modernization

Before -- the kind of script that makes you wince:

#!/bin/bash
# deploy.sh - "works on my machine"

cd /opt/app
git pull
npm install
npm run build
pm2 restart app
echo "done"

After -- a script you can trust:

#!/usr/bin/env bash
set -euo pipefail

# deploy.sh — Deploy application with rollback safety
# Usage: deploy.sh [--branch <branch>] [--skip-build] [--dry-run]

readonly SCRIPT_DIR="$(cd "$(dirname "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}")" && pwd)"
readonly APP_DIR=
 LOG_FILE=


BRANCH=
SKIP_BUILD=
DRY_RUN=

Signal	Action
Script is < 100 lines and basically works	Refactor in place
Script works but has no error handling	Add error handling, keep logic
Script uses APIs deprecated 2+ major versions ago	Replace deprecated APIs
Script is > 300 lines with tangled control flow	Consider splitting into modules first
Script is in a dead language/runtime	Rewrite (but that's a different skill)
Script is a critical production tool	Refactor incrementally with tests

Language	Recommended	Why
Bash	Manual `case` loop or `getopts`	No dependencies, portable
Node.js	`parseArgs` (built-in since Node 18.3)	Zero dependencies
Python	`argparse` (stdlib)	Battle-tested, auto-generates help
Go	`flag` (stdlib) or `cobra`	Standard practice
