Disciplined Code Refactoring

This skill implements the classic 'Two Hats' methodology popularized by Martin Fowler and Kent Beck, ensuring a rigorous separation between adding new functionality and restructuring existing code. By mandating a cycle of assessment, preparation, implementation, and cleanup, it prevents technical debt from accumulating during the development process. It guides Claude to apply specific refactoring patterns from established catalogs while maintaining a 'green' test suite at every step, resulting in cleaner, more maintainable codebases with zero unintended behavioral changes.
