vibecoding-refactor（振动编码重构）

Vibe Coding Engineering Refactoring Methodology

A complete methodology for systematically refactoring AI-generated code, supporting task splitting, persistence, and incremental execution for large refactoring projects.

⚠️ Core Principle: Deep Analysis First

Deep analysis phases must be completed before starting any refactoring tasks.

Typical Vibe Coding problems require deep analysis to discover:

• Duplicate implementations (same functionality implemented in multiple places, unaware of each other)
• Unused component libraries (existing library but not used, reinventing the wheel)
• Inconsistent patterns (API calls, error handling, state management vary across modules)
• Mixed abstraction levels (business logic mixed with UI)

Skipping analysis to start refactoring directly is not allowed.

⚡ Quick Recovery Entry (New Agent Must Read)

When user says "continue refactoring" or .refactor/ directory exists, execute the following recovery flow:

Step 1: Read status summary
   → Read .refactor/README.md (contains overall status and context)

Step 2: Read master plan
   → Read .refactor/tasks/master-plan.md (task tree and progress)

Step 3: Read active tasks
   → List and read task files in .refactor/tasks/active/

Step 4: Read recent logs (optional, if need to understand last interruption point)
   → Read latest session log in .refactor/logs/

Step 5: Report status to user
   → Use template below to report, confirm direction to continue

Report Template:

## Refactoring Status Recovery

### Overall Progress
- Project: {project_name}
- Total Progress: {X}%
- Current Phase: Phase {N} - {phase_name}

### Current Tasks
- 🔄 {task-xxx}: {task_name} ({completion}%)
  - Last progress: {what step was last completed}
  - Next step: {what to do next}

### Pending
- ⏳ {task-yyy}: {task_name}

### Blocked (if any)
- 🚫 {task-zzz}: {reason}

---
Continue with {task-xxx}? Or other arrangements?

Constitutional Principles

Bottom Line Principles (Absolutely Non-Violable)

1. Functionality Unchanged: All functionality must remain exactly the same as before refactoring
2. UI Unchanged: Visual appearance and interaction behavior remain unchanged
3. API Compatible: External interfaces remain compatible
4. Rollbackable: Each change can be independently rolled back
5. Traceable: All operations are recorded

Quality Standards

Code after refactoring should achieve:

• Unified patterns (one functionality has only one implementation)
• Clear responsibilities (each module has single responsibility)
• Reasonable dependencies (no circular dependencies, clear hierarchy)
• Type safety (no any, complete error handling)

Workflow (Six Phases)

Phase 0         Phase 1          Phase 2            Phase 3            Phase 4          Phase 5
Partition   →   Key Identify  →  Architecture   →   Module Layer   →   Execute      →   Finalize
    │              │              Analysis            Analysis          Refactor         Verify
    │              │                 │                   │                 │               │

Resource                         Evaluate          Generate Report    Update Progress Document
Inventory

Refactoring executes in two layers:

1. Architecture Layer: Dependencies, directory structure, layering standards (global problems)
2. Module Layer: Vibe Coding problems for each key feature (local problems)

Phase 0: Project Partition (Required)

Goal: Establish macro understanding, inventory reusable resources

0.1 Directory Structure Scan

# Generate directory tree
tree -L 3 -d -I "node_modules|target|dist|.git"

# Count code lines per directory
fd -e ts -e tsx -e rs | xargs wc -l | sort -rn | head -30

0.2 Domain Division

Identify main domains and boundaries:

Project Domain Division
├── Frontend Domain
│   ├── Component Library (components/ui/)
│   ├── Business Components (features/, modules/)
│   ├── Infrastructure (infrastructure/, lib/)
│   └── Shared Layer (shared/, common/)
│
├── Backend Domain
│   ├── Core Library (core/, domain/)
│   ├── API Layer (api/, handlers/)
│   └── Application Layer (app/, cmd/)
│
└── Common Domain
    ├── Type Definitions
    └── Configuration Files

0.3 Resource Inventory (Critical!)

Must thoroughly inventory all reusable resources and infrastructure in the project.

Inventory uses heuristic approach, not limited to categories below. Discover all reusable resources based on actual project:

UI Layer Resources

Utility Layer Resources

Service Layer Resources

Infrastructure (Often Overlooked!)

Heuristic Discovery

Beyond above categories, also search for project-specific infrastructure:

# Search singleton pattern (usually infrastructure)
rg "getInstance|\.instance|static instance" --type ts

# Search Provider pattern
rg "Provider|Context" --type tsx

# Search exported classes and factory functions
rg "^export class|^export function create" --type ts

# Search shared/, common/, core/ directories
fd -t d "shared|common|core|infrastructure"

Output Format:

## Resource Inventory

### UI Layer
| Resource | Location | Exports |
|----------|----------|---------|
| Component Library | components/ui/ | Button, Card, Modal... |
| Icons | icons/ | IconXxx... |

### Utility Layer
| Resource | Location | Exports |
|----------|----------|---------|
| Date Utils | shared/utils/date | formatDate, parseDate... |
| Hooks | hooks/ | useXxx... |

### Infrastructure
| Resource | Location | Usage | Description |
|----------|----------|-------|-------------|
| Logger | infrastructure/logger | logger.info() | Unified logging |
| Event Bus | infrastructure/events | eventBus.emit() | Cross-component communication |
| i18n | locales/ + useI18n | t('key') | Multi-language |
| Theme | theme/ + useTheme | theme.colors.xxx | Theme switching |

⚠️ These resources will be used in module-layer analysis to check reuse. The more thorough the inventory, the more accurate the subsequent analysis.

0.4 Output

Create .refactor/analysis/project-partition.md

Phase 1: Key Identification (Required)

Goal: Identify core features and modules that need deep analysis

1.1 Core Feature List

List the project's core features (will be deeply analyzed one by one later):

## Core Feature List

### Feature 1: [Feature Name]
- User Story: User can...
- Entry Point: [file path:line number]
- Involved Modules: [module list]
- Complexity: High/Medium/Low

### Feature 2: [Feature Name]
...

1.2 High-Frequency Code Identification

# Most referenced modules
rg "^import|^from" --type ts | grep -oP "from ['\"].*?['\"]" | sort | uniq -c | sort -rn | head -30

1.3 Key Path Tracing

Trace complete call chain for each core feature, preparing for subsequent module-layer analysis.

1.4 Output

Create .refactor/analysis/key-identification.md

Phase 2: Architecture Layer Analysis (Required)

Goal: Discover global architecture problems

Architecture problems are module-independent and need to be resolved first.

2.1 Layering Structure Check

Check if correct layering dependencies are followed:

Correct dependency direction (can only depend downward):
┌─────────────────┐
│   UI Layer      │  Components, Pages
├─────────────────┤
│   Application   │  State Management, Business Services
├─────────────────┤
│ Infrastructure  │  API, Storage, Utilities
├─────────────────┤
│   Core Layer    │  Type Definitions, Constants
└─────────────────┘

Check Violations:

# Core layer should not depend on upper layers
rg "from ['\"].*(components|services|store)" core/ types/

# Infrastructure should not depend on UI
rg "from ['\"].*components" infrastructure/

# Component library should not depend on business code
rg "from ['\"].*(features|modules)" components/ui/

2.2 Circular Dependency Detection

# Check if circular dependencies exist between modules
# A -> B and B -> A

2.3 Directory Structure Evaluation

• Is directory responsibility clear?
• Are there misplaced files?
• Are module boundaries clear?

2.4 Output: Architecture Layer Refactoring Report

Create .refactor/analysis/architecture-report.md:

# Architecture Layer Analysis Report

## Layering Violations
| Violation Location | Wrong Dependency | Severity | Fix Suggestion |
|--------------------|------------------|----------|----------------|
| core/utils.ts:15 | import from components/ | High | Remove dependency or adjust location |

## Circular Dependencies
| Module A | Module B | Files Involved | Fix Suggestion |
|----------|----------|----------------|----------------|
| moduleA | moduleB | a.ts, b.ts | Extract common part |

## Directory Structure Issues
| Issue | Location | Suggestion |
|-------|----------|------------|
| Unclear responsibility | features/utils/ | Move to shared/utils/ |

## Architecture Layer Refactoring Tasks
1. [A-001] Resolve core -> components violation
2. [A-002] Resolve moduleA <-> moduleB circular dependency
3. [A-003] Adjust features/utils/ location

Phase 3: Module Layer Analysis (Core!)

Goal: Deep analysis of each key feature, discovering Vibe Coding problems

⚠️ This is the most important phase, must go deep into implementation details of each module

3.1 Analysis Method

For each key feature identified in Phase 1, perform the following analysis:

## Feature Analysis: [Feature Name]

### Basic Information
- Entry: [file:line]
- Files Involved: [file list]
- Call Chain: [complete call path]

### Vibe Coding Problem Detection

#### 1. Duplicate Implementation Detection
- Is there same/similar functionality implemented elsewhere?
- Check method: Search similar function names, similar logic

#### 2. Resource Reuse Detection (Compare with Phase 0 inventory)
- Using component library components? Or self-made?
- Using utility function library? Or self-written?
- Using public types? Or self-defined?
- Using public services? Or direct API calls?

#### 3. Pattern Consistency Detection
- Is API call pattern consistent with other modules?
- Is error handling unified?
- Is state management unified?

#### 4. Code Quality Detection
- Excessive any types?
- Unhandled errors?
- Hardcoded values?

### Problem Summary
| Problem | Location | Severity | Fix Suggestion |
|---------|----------|----------|----------------|
| ... | ... | ... | ... |

### Refactoring Suggestions
1. ...
2. ...

Phase 4: Execute Refactoring

Goal: Execute refactoring by layer

4.1 Execution Order

Must do architecture layer first, then module layer:

Phase 1: Architecture Layer Refactoring
├── Resolve circular dependencies
├── Fix layering violations
└── Adjust directory structure

Phase 2: Module Layer Refactoring
├── Resource reuse migration (component library, utility library)
├── Merge duplicate implementations
└── Unify patterns

4.2 Task Generation

Generate tasks based on Phase 2 and Phase 3 reports:

.refactor/tasks/master-plan.md

## Phase 1: Architecture Layer [Priority]
- task-A001: Resolve core -> components dependency [Architecture]
- task-A002: Resolve circular dependency [Architecture]

## Phase 2: Module Layer
- task-M001: File editor module refactoring [Module]
- task-M002: Chat feature module refactoring [Module]
- task-M003: Terminal module refactoring [Module]

4.3 Execution Flow for Each Task

1. Read task file
2. Execute refactoring operations
3. Verify (compile, test)
4. Update task progress
5. Record to session log
6. If phase complete, create checkpoint

See:

• workspace/task-lifecycle.md - Task Lifecycle
• workspace/session-management.md - Session Management

Phase 5: Finalize and Verify

Goal: Verify, compare, cleanup

• Full compile and test verification
• Generate before/after comparison document
• Update architecture diagrams
• Archive task files
• Optional: Delete.refactor/ directory

Task Operations

Recover Session (Continue Refactoring)

Trigger: User says "continue refactoring", "pick up where we left off", or .refactor/ directory exists

Execute recovery flow (see "Quick Recovery Entry" above)

Key Principles:

• New Agent obtains all context by reading persisted files
• Do not rely on conversation history, rely entirely on state in .refactor/
• README.md is core entry point, must be kept up to date

Create Task

1. Generate task ID: task-{number}
2. Create task file: .refactor/tasks/active/task-xxx.md
3. Update master-plan.md task tree
4. Record to session log

Update Task Progress

1. Update task file:
   - Check off completed steps
   - Add progress record
   - Update timestamp
2. If task complete:
   - Move to tasks/completed/
   - Update master-plan.md progress percentage
   - If last task in phase, create checkpoint

Create Checkpoint

1. Create directory: checkpoints/checkpoint-{number}/
2. Record git ref: git rev-parse HEAD
3. Save state snapshot
4. Update master-plan.md checkpoint table

Session End

1. Save current session log
2. Update all active task states
3. Update master-plan.md
4. Report:
   - Tasks completed this session
   - Current progress
   - Next continuation point

Verification System

After Each Change

# Rust project
cargo check --workspace
cargo clippy --workspace  # Optional
cargo test --workspace    # If tests exist

# TypeScript project
npm run build
npm run lint              # Optional
npm run test              # If tests exist

After Phase Complete

• Start application to verify main functionality
• Visual comparison of key pages
• Create checkpoint

After All Complete

• Full functional testing
• Before/after comparison document
• Architecture diagram update
