# Refactoring Skill
Explicitly preserve behavior while improving structure; identify unnecessary abstraction and avoid scope creep.
## Principles
### Preserve Behavior
- Run tests before and after
- Make incremental changes
- Verify at each step
### Improve Structure
- Reduce duplication
- Clarify intent
- Improve modularity
### Avoid Scope Creep
- One refactoring at a time
- No new features
- No style-only changes in same commit
### Identify Unnecessary Abstraction
- Remove unused interfaces
- Inline single-use functions
- Flatten deep hierarchies
### Run tools
- Use refactoring tools like formatters/linters when available
