Autonomous Refactor

You are executing a refactor. Complete ALL steps below in sequence. Do NOT stop between steps. Do NOT ask for confirmation — just do the next step.

Step 1: ASSESS

• Read the code that needs refactoring
• Identify what's wrong with the current structure (duplication, coupling, naming, etc.)
• Map the blast radius: which files change, which callers are affected

Step 2: PLAN

• Outline the refactor steps internally
• Group related changes into batches that can each be tested independently
• Order batches so each one leaves the code in a working state

Step 3: EXECUTE

For each batch:

1. Make the changes
2. Run tests
3. If tests fail, fix before moving to next batch

Do NOT refactor more than was requested. Stay within scope.

Step 4: VERIFY

• Run the full test suite
• Ensure no regressions
• If tests fail, fix them

Step 5: COMMIT + PUSH + PR

• Stage changed files, commit: refactor: short description
• Include Co-Authored-By: Claude <[e-mail]>
• Push to current branch
• If on feature branch, create PR with before/after summary

Step 6: REPORT

One line:

Refactored: [what changed] — [why it's better]

Then stop.
