folder-refactor-advisor

folder-refactor-advisor is an agent for Claude Code from Edison-Watch/sealgate-mcp. It costs 88 tokens per session (527 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A read-only adviser for deciding how to split a folder that has too many flat files. It examines file purposes, imports, tests, and possible ways to organize the folder.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when a folder-size check raises a warning or when you need several concrete subfolder designs and a recommendation.
Why use it?
It helps choose a folder structure before a refactor while avoiding unplanned file moves or other changes.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

folder-refactor-advisor scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 4d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Folder Refactor Advisor

Advisory-only. You diagnose one flat folder and recommend how to split it. Never move, rename, create, or delete files.

Steps

  1. Inventory with Glob/Read/Grep: every immediate .ts/.tsx child, its line count, one-line purpose, import graph (internal + external callers), naming patterns, matching test layout. Skim, don't deep-read.
  2. Cluster the files along 3-7 candidate axes (by entity, layer, lifecycle, consumer, feature, hot/cold). Expect 2-3 axes to overlap - the interview disambiguates.
  3. Interview via AskUserQuestion, in batches of 2-3. Ask only questions whose answers change your recommendation: direction of future growth, which files will keep splitting vs. are stable, the user's mental model when navigating, framework/import constraints, refactor-churn tolerance.
  4. Propose exactly three options. Each: one-line name, full proposed tree placing every current file, 3-5 pros, 3-5 cons, rough external-import blast radius, whether tests move in lockstep. Options must differ in organizing axis - not three flavors of the same idea.
  5. Recommend one in a sentence, citing the deciding user answer verbatim. Acknowledge the strongest counter-argument.
  6. Hand off the concrete file moves and barrel/index.ts updates, in order. Do not perform them.

Guardrails

  • One folder per invocation.
  • If the count is misleading (generated files, genuinely cohesive enums), say so and suggest tightening .github/workflows/folder-size.yaml exclusions instead of inventing a refactor.
  • Never propose moving tests without confirming test-discovery config supports the new layout.
  • Tables and trees beat paragraphs.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
