Refactor Module

Checked
acedergren·vlatest·backend

Refactors Python modules to improve readability, maintainability, and performance based on acedergren's style guidelines.

Repository

Install on your platform

This skill no longer installs under the name refactor-module. SKILL.md frontmatter is not valid YAML, so the skills CLI skips it.

We check each listing against its upstream repository with the rules the skills CLI uses, last on 2026-10-01. We don't show a command we know will fail.

What we know about this skill

Publisher

acedergren

Taken from the source listing. We haven't verified who controls this account.

Install target

Live repository

Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.

  • Declares what it does: passed

    SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No undeclared network calls: passed

    Makes no network calls.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned acedergren/agentic-tools at 641a79bf98.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

This is a static scan, not a review. It reads the skill's files; it does not run them, and it cannot tell you whether the skill is any good or whether the code does what its description says. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent.

About this skill

What it does

This skill, acedergren-refactor-module, allows an AI agent to refactor existing code modules. It can take a module and improve its structure, readability, and maintainability without changing its functionality. The skill aims to reduce technical debt and enhance the overall quality of a codebase.

When to use it

  • Cleaning up legacy code: Use this when you have older modules that are difficult to understand or modify.
  • Improving code organization: Employ it to restructure large, complex modules into smaller, more manageable units.
  • Preparing for new features: Refactor existing code before adding new functionality to ensure a clean and stable foundation.
  • Reducing redundancy: Identify and eliminate duplicated code within a module.

Key capabilities

  • Module refactoring
  • Code restructuring
  • Improved readability
  • Reduced technical debt

Example prompts

  • "Refactor the user_authentication module to improve its structure."
  • "Can you restructure the data_processing module into smaller, more focused functions?"
  • “Please refactor this code and reduce redundancy.”

Tips & gotchas

This skill requires a clear understanding of the existing codebase. Providing context about the module's purpose and dependencies will help the agent perform effective refactoring.
