About This Skill
What it does
This skill, classname-refactor, helps automate the process of renaming classes in codebases. It identifies and systematically updates all references to a specified class, ensuring consistency across a project. This includes updating imports, variable assignments, and method calls that use the old class name.
When to use it
- Large refactoring projects: When you need to change the name of a core class in a large codebase.
- Renaming after merging branches: To ensure consistent naming conventions across merged code.
- Improving code maintainability: Simplifying and standardizing class names for better readability.
- Addressing technical debt: Cleaning up legacy code with inconsistent or unclear class names.
Key capabilities
- Automated renaming of classes.
- Updates references to the renamed class throughout the codebase.
- Handles import statements.
- Modifies variable assignments and method calls.
Example prompts
- "Refactor class 'OldClassName' to 'NewClassName'."
- "Rename 'LegacyClass' to 'ModernClass' in this project."
- “Update all instances of ‘DatabaseConnector’ to ‘DBConnection’.”
Tips & gotchas
This skill requires access to the codebase being refactored. It is recommended to back up your code before running any automated renaming operations.
