What it does

Apply Martin Fowler-inspired refactoring rules when improving existing code structure while preserving observable behavior.

Refactoring Skill

Use this skill when a task involves behavior-preserving code improvement, code smells, small refactoring steps, test-backed cleanup, or separating refactoring from feature changes.

Before making design or code decisions, read and apply refactoring.mini.md. Use refactoring.md only as a deeper reference when the mini rules are not enough for the current refactoring tradeoff.
