refactor-plan
Create a concrete plan before starting a multi-file refactor. Use when the user asks to plan, sequence, scope, or safely execute a refactor across multiple files; always investigate first, output the plan, and wait for confirmation before making code changes.

Refactor Plan
Create a detailed plan before making any code changes.
Instructions
- Do not edit files while preparing the plan.
- Search the codebase to understand the current state. Read enough implementation, tests, configuration, and docs to make the plan specific to the repository.
- Identify affected files, ownership boundaries, dependencies, and likely hidden coupling.
- Plan changes in a safe sequence. Prefer contracts and types first, then implementations, then callers, then tests, then cleanup.
- Include verification steps between phases and a final validation command.
- Include rollback or recovery steps for the riskiest phases.
- Output the complete plan using the format below.
- Stop after the plan and ask for confirmation before implementing. If the user already asked you to implement, still produce the plan first and wait for confirmation unless they explicitly said to continue without review after the plan.
If the request is too ambiguous to plan safely, ask concise clarifying questions instead of editing files.
Output Format
## Refactor Plan: [title]
### Current State
[Brief description of how things work now]
### Target State
[Brief description of how things will work after]
### Affected Files
| File | Change Type | Dependencies |
|------|-------------|--------------|
| path | modify/create/delete | blocks X, blocked by Y |
### Execution Plan
#### Phase 1: Types and Interfaces
- [ ] Step 1.1: [action] in `file.ts`
- [ ] Verify: [how to check it worked]
#### Phase 2: Implementation
- [ ] Step 2.1: [action] in `file.ts`
- [ ] Verify: [how to check]
#### Phase 3: Tests
- [ ] Step 3.1: Update tests in `file.test.ts`
- [ ] Verify: Run `npm test`
#### Phase 4: Cleanup
- [ ] Remove deprecated code
- [ ] Update documentation
### Rollback Plan
If something fails:
1. [Step to undo]
2. [Step to undo]
### Risks
- [Potential issue and mitigation]
After the plan, ask: "Shall I proceed with Phase 1?"

Run the AgentRC readiness assessment on the current repository and produce a static HTML dashboard at reports/index.html. Wraps `npx github:microsoft/agentrc readiness` and hands off rendering to the @ai-readiness-reporter custom agent. Supports policies (--policy) for org-specific scoring. Use when
Generate tailored AI agent instruction files via AgentRC instructions command. Produces .github/copilot-instructions.md (default, recommended for Copilot in VS Code) plus optional per-area .instructions.md files with applyTo globs for monorepos.

Help the user pick, write, or apply an AgentRC policy. Policies customise readiness scoring by disabling irrelevant checks, overriding impact/level, setting pass-rate thresholds, or chaining org baselines with team overrides. Use when the user asks about strict mode, AI-only scoring, custom weights,
