Refactor

Safely refactor code while maintaining functionality.

Arguments

• `$ARGUMENTS` - Description of what to refactor and why

Steps

1. **Ensure test coverage**

• Run existing tests: `pnpm test`
• If coverage is insufficient, add tests first before refactoring

2. **Plan the refactoring**

• Identify all files that will be affected
• List the changes needed in each file
• Consider breaking large refactors into smaller commits

3. **Make incremental changes**

• Change one thing at a time
• After each change, run: `pnpm typecheck`
• Commit working states frequently

4. **Maintain backward compatibility** (if public API)

• Keep function signatures the same where possible
• If signatures must change, update all call sites

5. **Verify after completion**

• Run full test suite: `pnpm test`
• Run type check: `pnpm typecheck`
• Run lint: `pnpm lint`

6. **Clean up**

• Remove any dead code
• Update imports if file paths changed
• Update documentation if needed

7. **Commit with proper message**

• Use format: `refactor(scope): description`
• Keep refactoring commits separate from feature/fix commits
