cc-refactor

A step-by-step workflow for simplifying a file or module without changing its intended behavior. Refactoring means reorganizing code to make it clearer and easier to maintain.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to find long functions, deep nesting, excessive dependencies, unnecessary layers, or misleading names, then address them one change at a time.
Why use it?
It makes complexity problems visible and checks the test suite after each change, reducing the chance of unnoticed breakage.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Made for: Claude Code.

Per session 14 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.
When invoked 303 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.
Security scan A 0 findings. Scan, not verified.
Origin original No closer match found in the catalogue.
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

cc-refactor 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 2d 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

Phase 0 — Skill activation

Invoke both skills before doing anything else:

Skill({ skill: "code-simplifier", args: "$ARGUMENTS" })
Skill({ skill: "subagent-driven-development", args: "$ARGUMENTS" })

code-simplifier defines the refactoring rules to apply. subagent-driven-development governs how to delegate each step to sub-agents — one per change, keeping the main context clean.


Diagnose the target file or module:

Complexity issues found:

  • Functions over 30 lines: [list with line numbers]
  • Nesting over 3 levels: [list with line numbers]
  • Classes with 5+ dependencies: [list]
  • Layers that only delegate: [list]
  • Misleading names: [list]

Generate a refactor plan: ordered list of changes, one per step.

For each step:

  • What changes (exact file:line range)
  • Why (complexity signal it resolves)
  • Risk (what could break)

Execute one change at a time. After each:

  1. Run the test suite
  2. Report: tests passed / failed
  3. Confirm before the next step

Final report:

  • Before: [line count, complexity metrics]
  • After: [line count, complexity metrics]
  • Test status: [passed / N failed]
Changes

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.

cc-refactor is a command published in the GitHub repository yeisonrestrepo/code-conductor (6 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 14 tokens to every session and 303 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
