extract-method-object is a skill for Claude Code from msbaek/msbaek-claude-plugins. It costs 105 tokens per session (2,734 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A refactoring method for moving a large method with tangled local variables into a separate class.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use the /extract-method-object command when local variables make a large method hard to refactor.
Why use it?
It helps make difficult-to-maintain methods easier to separate and work with.

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

extract-method-object 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 1mo 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.

Extract Method Object Skill

지역 변수가 상호 의존해 Extract Method가 어려운 거대 메서드를 별도 클래스로 추출.

GOAL

  • 성공 = 지역 변수가 상호 의존하는 긴 메서드가 Method Object로 추출되어 커밋 완료됨
  • 50줄 이상의 복잡한 메서드가 식별됨
  • 지역 변수가 메서드 전역에 걸쳐 상호 의존해 Extract Method 불가
  • 후보 보고 후 Method Object 패턴 적용 (Tidy 계열 — 승인 없이)
  • 모든 테스트 통과

CONSTRAINTS

  • 계열: Tidy — 후보 보고 후 승인 없이 적용 (../../references/refactoring-procedure.md §0·§3-A)

Hard Rules

  • 동작 변경 금지 — 구조 개선만 수행
  • 테스트 수정 금지 — 구조 변경이 테스트를 실패시키면 되돌리기
  • 커밋 단위 — 1파일 x 1기법 = 1커밋 (논리적으로 연결된 파일은 함께)
  • git add -A 금지 — 변경된 파일만 명시적으로 추가

적용 패턴

Extract Method Object 리팩토링 단계:

  1. 메서드를 클래스로 변환

    • 새 클래스 생성 (메서드명 + "er" 또는 명사형)
    • 원본 메서드를 invoke() 또는 execute() 메서드로 이동
  2. 지역 변수를 필드로 변환

    • 메서드 내 지역 변수들을 클래스 필드로 변환
    • 읽기 전용 변수는 final 필드로
  3. 외부 의존성을 생성자 파라미터로 전달

    • 원본 클래스의 필드 참조를 생성자 파라미터로
    • 필요한 최소한의 의존성만 전달
  4. 작은 메서드로 분해

    • 큰 invoke() 메서드를 의미 있는 작은 private 메서드들로 분해
    • 각 메서드는 단일 책임 수행
