Refactoring 00: Preflight Assessment

Goal

Spend a few minutes to scope the refactor, identify risks, and choose an order of work.

Sequence

  • Order: 00
  • Previous: none
  • Next: refactoring-01-project-structure

Workflow

  • Scan the repo layout, entrypoints, and main data paths.

- Success: Entry points and key data paths are listed.

  • List critical risks: data availability, runtime constraints, hardware/GPU, external tools.

- Success: Risks are enumerated with brief impact notes.

  • Identify fragile areas (global state, hidden config, ad hoc scripts).

- Success: Fragile hotspots are called out with file or module names.

  • Decide a minimal, sequential plan and confirm with the user.

- Success: A short ordered plan is agreed with the user.

  • Write a short checklist of what will and will not be touched.

- Success: In-scope and out-of-scope items are explicitly captured.

Guardrails

  • Do not change code in this step.
  • Keep the assessment under a few minutes unless requested.
  • Prefer explicit tradeoffs over broad promises.
