Plan safe refactors using blast radius and dependency mapping
npx skill4agent add abhigyanpatwari/gitnexus gitnexus-refactoring1. gitnexus_impact({target: "X", direction: "upstream"}) → Map all dependents
2. gitnexus_query({query: "X"}) → Find execution flows involving X
3. gitnexus_context({name: "X"}) → See all incoming/outgoing refs
4. Plan update order: interfaces → implementations → callers → testsIf "Index is stale" → runin terminal.npx gitnexus analyze
- [ ] gitnexus_rename({symbol_name: "oldName", new_name: "newName", dry_run: true}) — preview all edits
- [ ] Review graph edits (high confidence) and ast_search edits (review carefully)
- [ ] If satisfied: gitnexus_rename({..., dry_run: false}) — apply edits
- [ ] gitnexus_detect_changes() — verify only expected files changed
- [ ] Run tests for affected processes- [ ] gitnexus_context({name: target}) — see all incoming/outgoing refs
- [ ] gitnexus_impact({target, direction: "upstream"}) — find all external callers
- [ ] Define new module interface
- [ ] Extract code, update imports
- [ ] gitnexus_detect_changes() — verify affected scope
- [ ] Run tests for affected processes- [ ] gitnexus_context({name: target}) — understand all callees
- [ ] Group callees by responsibility
- [ ] gitnexus_impact({target, direction: "upstream"}) — map callers to update
- [ ] Create new functions/services
- [ ] Update callers
- [ ] gitnexus_detect_changes() — verify affected scope
- [ ] Run tests for affected processesgitnexus_rename({symbol_name: "validateUser", new_name: "authenticateUser", dry_run: true})

RETURN caller.name, caller.filePath ORDER BY caller.filePath| Risk Factor | Mitigation |
|---|---|
| Many callers (>5) | Use gitnexus_rename for automated updates |
| Cross-area refs | Use detect_changes after to verify scope |
| String/dynamic refs | gitnexus_query to find them |
| External/public API | Version and deprecate properly |
validateUserauthenticateUser1. gitnexus_rename({symbol_name: "validateUser", new_name: "authenticateUser", dry_run: true})
→ 12 edits: 10 graph (safe), 2 ast_search (review)
→ Files: validator.ts, login.ts, middleware.ts, config.json...
2. Review ast_search edits (config.json: dynamic reference!)
3. gitnexus_rename({symbol_name: "validateUser", new_name: "authenticateUser", dry_run: false})
→ Applied 12 edits across 8 files
4. gitnexus_detect_changes({scope: "all"})
→ Affected: LoginFlow, TokenRefresh
→ Risk: MEDIUM — run tests for these flows
