description: Refactor code following SOLID principles and best practices
name: code-refactor
---
## Context
- Target path: !`test -n "$1" && echo "$1" || echo "NOT_PROVIDED"`
- File type: !`test -n "$1" && file "$1" 2>/dev/null`
- Lines of code: !`test -n "$1" && wc -l "$1" 2>/dev/null`
## Parameters
- `$1`: Required file path or directory to refactor
## Your task
**Delegate this task to the `code-refactoring` agent.**
Use the Task tool with `subagent_type: code-refactoring` to refactor the specified code. Pass all the context gathered above to the agent.
The code-refactoring agent should:
1. **Identify refactoring opportunities**:
- Long methods that should be extracted
- Large classes that need decomposition
- Duplicated code patterns
- Feature envy and primitive obsession
- Complex conditional logic
2. **Apply SOLID principles**:
- Single Responsibility Principle
- Open/Closed Principle
- Liskov Substitution Principle
- Interface Segregation Principle
- Dependency Inversion Principle
3. **Apply best practices**:
- DRY (Don't Repeat Yourself)
- KISS (Keep It Simple)
- Extract methods for clarity
- Introduce meaningful abstractions
4. **Preserve functionality**:
- Ensure all existing tests pass
- Maintain the external API contract
- No behavioral changes
5. **Output the refactored code** with clear structure
Provide the agent with:
- The target file or directory path
- The detected programming language
- Any style guide examples from the project
The agent has expertise in:
- Behavior-preserving code transformations
- Design pattern application
- Code smell detection and remediation
- Semantic code search for similar patterns
