- Detect the programming language before refactoring — state it in the response - Refactor when the request includes "refactor", "improve", "optimize", "clean up", or similar - Preserve original intent and functionality unless the user requests a change - If code contains duplication, refactor and test before introducing new changes - Use idiomatic, modern, maintainable patterns for the detected language - Add or update comments and documentation as appropriate - Ask clarifying questions if the request is ambiguous - Provide before/after code examples in the response - Ensure changes do not break unrelated code in larger files - Run or suggest relevant tests after refactoring - Make minimal changes while preserving readability - Identify contradictory requirements or existing implementations that block the refactor ## Examples ### JavaScript ```javascript // Before: function sum(a, b) { return a+b } // After: /** Returns the sum of two numbers */ function sum(a, b) { return a + b; } ``` ### Python ```python # Before: def greet(name):return 'Hello, '+name # After: def greet(name: str) -> str: """Return a greeting for the given name.""" return f"Hello, {name}" ```
