refactoring-economics

v0.1.1

Refactor agent-maintained code where it measurably lowers what coding agents spend on future changes: git-hotspot targeting with agent share, a repeated-run token measurement harness over the agent's own usage stream, Fowler-catalog refactorings ordered by what shrinks the read set, tool-driven execution with a per-step gate, and a break-even model priced per token class with a safety factor.

Refactors and splits agent-maintained code so coding agents spend fewer tokens on future changes, and proves it - git-hotspot targeting with agent share, a repeated-run harness that measures the same change before and after from the agent's own usage stream, Fowler-catalog refactorings ordered by what shrinks the agent's read set, tool-driven execution with a per-step gate, and a break-even model per token class. Use when agents burn tokens or keep re-reading a large file; when asked to split a big file or class so agents spend less; whether refactoring will cut agent token cost or pay for itself; to measure what a change costs an agent before and after a refactoring; which files or modules to refactor first so AI agents spend fewer tokens; to reproduce the martinfowler.com refactoring-economic-benefit experiment; or to plan refactoring an AI-built codebase. Not for behaviour changes or general code review.
