What it does
Gitnexus Refactoring is an agent skill from aws-samples/sample-kolya-br-proxy, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Use when the user wants to rename, extract, split, move, or restructure code safely. Examples: "Rename this function", "Extract this into a module", "Refactor this class", "Move this to a separate file"
Its SKILL.md is about 1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Development, covering Refactoring. The licence is MIT-0.
When your agent uses it
- The user wants to rename
- Restructure code safely
Example prompts
- “Rename this function”
- “Extract this into a module”
- “Refactor this class”
- “/gitnexus-refactoring”
Requirements
- Node.js
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9c3dcee. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
npx
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use npx, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.
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.
Context cost
Gitnexus Refactoring loads about 1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 56 tokens; SKILL.md has 109 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.
SKILL.md
The full file from aws-samples/sample-kolya-br-proxy at commit 9c3dcee, republished under its MIT-0 licence (© aws-samples). 109 words, ~1,010 tokens.

Refactoring with GitNexus
When to Use
- "Rename this function safely"
- "Extract this into a module"
- "Split this service"
- "Move this to a new file"
- Any task involving renaming, extracting, splitting, or restructuring code
Workflow
1. gitnexus_impact({target: "X", direction: "upstream"}) → Map all dependents
2. gitnexus_query({query: "X"}) → Find execution flows involving X
3. gitnexus_context({name: "X"}) → See all incoming/outgoing refs
4. Plan update order: interfaces → implementations → callers → testsIf "Index is stale" → run
npx gitnexus analyzein terminal.
Checklists
Rename Symbol
- [ ] gitnexus_rename({symbol_name: "oldName", new_name: "newName", dry_run: true}) — preview all edits
- [ ] Review graph edits (high confidence) and ast_search edits (review carefully)
- [ ] If satisfied: gitnexus_rename({..., dry_run: false}) — apply edits
- [ ] gitnexus_detect_changes() — verify only expected files changed
- [ ] Run tests for affected processesExtract Module
- [ ] gitnexus_context({name: target}) — see all incoming/outgoing refs
- [ ] gitnexus_impact({target, direction: "upstream"}) — find all external callers
- [ ] Define new module interface
- [ ] Extract code, update imports
- [ ] gitnexus_detect_changes() — verify affected scope
- [ ] Run tests for affected processesSplit Function/Service
- [ ] gitnexus_context({name: target}) — understand all callees
- [ ] Group callees by responsibility
- [ ] gitnexus_impact({target, direction: "upstream"}) — map callers to update
- [ ] Create new functions/services
- [ ] Update callers
- [ ] gitnexus_detect_changes() — verify affected scope
- [ ] Run tests for affected processesTools
gitnexus_rename — automated multi-file rename:
gitnexus_rename({symbol_name: "validateUser", new_name: "authenticateUser", dry_run: true})
→ 12 edits across 8 files
→ 10 graph edits (high confidence), 2 ast_search edits (review)
→ Changes: [{file_path, edits: [{line, old_text, new_text, confidence}]}]gitnexus_impact — map all dependents first:
gitnexus_impact({target: "validateUser", direction: "upstream"})
→ d=1: loginHandler, apiMiddleware, testUtils
→ Affected Processes: LoginFlow, TokenRefreshgitnexus_detect_changes — verify your changes after refactoring:
gitnexus_detect_changes({scope: "all"})
→ Changed: 8 files, 12 symbols
→ Affected processes: LoginFlow, TokenRefresh
→ Risk: MEDIUMgitnexus_cypher — custom reference queries:
MATCH (caller)-[:CodeRelation {type: 'CALLS'}]->(f:Function {name: "validateUser"})
RETURN caller.name, caller.filePath ORDER BY caller.filePathRisk Rules
| Risk Factor | Mitigation |
|---|---|
| Many callers (>5) | Use gitnexus_rename for automated updates |
| Cross-area refs | Use detect_changes after to verify scope |
| String/dynamic refs | gitnexus_query to find them |
| External/public API | Version and deprecate properly |
Example: Rename validateUser to authenticateUser
1. gitnexus_rename({symbol_name: "validateUser", new_name: "authenticateUser", dry_run: true})
→ 12 edits: 10 graph (safe), 2 ast_search (review)
→ Files: validator.ts, login.ts, middleware.ts, config.json...
2. Review ast_search edits (config.json: dynamic reference!)
3. gitnexus_rename({symbol_name: "validateUser", new_name: "authenticateUser", dry_run: false})
→ Applied 12 edits across 8 files
4. gitnexus_detect_changes({scope: "all"})
→ Affected: LoginFlow, TokenRefresh
→ Risk: MEDIUM — run tests for these flows© aws-samples, MIT-0. Rendered from Markdown: HTML in the file is shown as text, images as links, and headings moved down two levels. Raw file
