When the user says 'refactor this', 'rename class', or 'move method'. Safely refactors code in any language — finds all callers, updates downstream dependencies, verifies via quality tools.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

# refactorer
## When to use
Use this skill when renaming, moving, extracting, or restructuring code — any change that
may have downstream effects on callers, interfaces, tests, documentation, or API contracts.
Do NOT use when:
- New feature development (use `feature-planning` skill)
- Bug fixes that don't involve restructuring (use `bug-analyzer` skill)
## Before refactoring
1. **Read the agent docs** — check `agents/reference/docs/` and `agents/settings/contexts/` for the area you're refactoring.
For modules, also read the project's module-docs directory (path varies by stack — Laravel: `app/Modules/{Module}/agents/`; Nx: `apps/{app}/docs/`; mono-repo: per-package `docs/`). See the `project-docs` skill for the mapping.
2. **Understand the scope** — what exactly needs to change and why?
3. **Find ALL references** — use `code-graph ask` and `view` with `search_query_regex` to find every
caller, implementation, test, and configuration that references the code being changed.
**If the change is to a closed set** — an enum, union, literal type, state
machine, role or permission set — identifier search is not enough: the

How to install
mdr add event4u-app/agent-config/code-refactoring@sha256:534988a64e1313a5The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261028.cf494b8, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
