refactor
Use when splitting an oversized module or test suite, deduplicating implementations across packages or runtimes, deleting dead code or unused dependencies, removing completed compatibility layers, reducing scattered edits for one supported change, or restructuring a codebase while preserving its observable behavior. Use challenge for architecture-only advice without implementation. Use deliver-and-verify when the outcome adds features or changes product behavior.

Topics in the source
- Refactor
Preserve the supported behavior while removing the named structural debt. Read health.md for deletion and duplication criteria and code.md for domain and I/O boundaries. 1. State the public contracts, workflows and affected test configurations that must keep working, and the structural problem to remove. 2. Split large modules along domain capabilities or test scenarios. Keep contracts, deterministic domain decisions and I/O adapters distinguishable within a capability. Keep scenario-specific setup near its tests and share focused fixtures where related scenarios use them. 3. Inventory the affected public entry points and consumers. Delete a superseded path after verifying that its consumers moved and supported behavior/data remain available. An accidentally unreachable capability is a regression to restore. 4. Use available language tooling when it adds coverage: knip and jscpd for JavaScript/TypeScript; cargo machete, cargo +nightly udeps, clippy and clone detection for Rust; appropriate static analysis for other languages. Tools supply candidates. Check public exports, generated/macro entry points, dynamic hooks and supported feature targets before deletion. 5. Consolidate copie
