What it does
Windsurf Refactoring Large is an agent skill from jeremylongshore/tons-of-skills-marketplace. Manage large-scale refactoring with Cascade coordination. Activate when users mention "large refactoring", "codebase migration", "architecture refactor", "major refactoring", or "system-wide changes". Handles complex refactoring operations. Use when working with windsurf refactoring large functionality. Trigger with phrases like "windsurf refactoring large", "windsurf large", "windsurf".
Its SKILL.md is about 530 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 5 other files, including reference files (for example `references/directory-structure.md`, `references/errors.md` and `references/examples.md`). Compatibility notes: Designed for Claude Code
It sits in Development, covering Refactoring. The repository describes itself as: Model-agnostic agent-skills platform with a harness-free canonical layer, verified adapters, and the ccpi package manager. Explore at tonsofskills.com. The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- S mention large refactoring
- Codebase migration
- Architecture refactor
- Major refactoring
Example prompts
- “large refactoring”
- “codebase migration”
- “architecture refactor”
- “/windsurf-refactoring-large”
Requirements
- Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Designed for Claude Code
- Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Write, Edit, Bash(cmd:*), Grep, Glob
Workflow steps
5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Analyze Scope
- Create Plan
- Prepare Environment
- Execute with Cascade
- Verify Completion
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit cfae287. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:
ReadWriteEditBash(cmd:*)GrepGlob
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):
docs.windsurf.ai
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Compatibility
Designed for Claude Code
From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Context cost
Windsurf Refactoring Large loads about 532 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.7k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 104 tokens; SKILL.md has 138 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.
