## refactor
Improve code structure while preserving behavior.
### Patterns
- Extract function/method
- Rename for clarity
- Replace conditionals with polymorphism
- Introduce parameter object
- Decompose conditional
- Replace temp with query
- Encapsulate field
### Process
1. Ensure tests exist or write them first
2. Small, incremental changes
3. Run tests after each change
4. Commit frequently
5. Never refactor and add features together
