**For EACH extracted module:** **Choose agent:** - DTO introduction / mechanical → `generic-light` (1x) - Error strategy / control flow reasoning → `generic-fast-thinking` (4x) **Chunk the module** (200-400 lines per chunk for LLM sweet spot): ```markdown

``` refactor({module}): Extract {module_name} to {layer} layer - Layer: {DOMAIN/APPLICATION/INFRASTRUCTURE/PRESENTATION} - Moved: {function_list} - DTOs introduced: {dto_list or "none"} - No semantic changes - Tests: {test_count} passing ``` ```

```bash php artisan optimize:clear ./vendor/bin/pint {files} php artisan test --filter={relevant_tests} ```

1. **Create new file:** {target_path}/{module_name}.php 2. **Move functions:** {list_of_functions} 3. **Update imports:** Add use statements to original file 4. **Preserve call sites:** Original file calls new location 5. **NO semantic changes:** Pure code movement only

For each identified "mystery meat" structure in this module: 1. Create DTO class: `app/Domain/{Module}/DTOs/{Name}DTO.php` 2. Add typed properties (PHP 8.3 constructor promotion) 3. Replace array usage with DTO

**If target is DOMAIN:** - NO imports of Eloquent models (use interfaces instead) - NO DB queries - NO HTTP calls - NO event firing - PURE PHP — only domain objects, exceptions, value types **If target is APPLICATION:** - MAY orchestrate domain + infrastructure - Handles transactions - Fires events - NO HTTP-specific logic (no Request/Response objects) **If target is INFRASTRUCTURE:** - MAY use Eloquent, DB facade, HTTP client - Implements interfaces defined in Domain - NO business...

Analyze the file(s) with ONE question in mind: **"Can a new LLM understand the domain logic without reading infrastructure code?"** Create a comprehensive LLM Readability Map by identifying: 1. **Layer Violations** - Which functions mix I/O (DB/HTTP/file) with domain logic? - Which functions mix calculation with logging/events? - Where does the domain layer reach into infrastructure? 2. **Side-Effect Inventory** - List every function that: writes to DB, makes HTTP calls, reads...

**Target File(s):** {file_paths} **Total Lines:** {line_count} **Test Coverage:** {coverage_percent}

**Spawn chosen agent with this prompt:** ```markdown

**Count complexity triggers:** - [ ] File > 10,000 lines - [ ] Test coverage < 30% - [ ] Much global state - [ ] Metaprogramming - [ ] Critical code (payment, auth) - [ ] Complex DI - [ ] Event-driven with race conditions **Decision:** - 0-1 triggers → `generic-balanced-thinking` (33x) - 2+ triggers → `generic-heavy` (163x)

**BEFORE any LLM touches the code, ensure:** ```bash # Minimum guardrails (ALL must exist) ✅ Kjørbar build: php artisan optimize:clear && composer dump-autoload ✅ Linting: ./vendor/bin/pint --test (or phpstan) ✅ Test command: php artisan test --filter=ModuleName ✅ Smoke test: curl http://localhost/health OR manual flow check ``` **If test coverage is LOW (< 50%):** ```markdown ⚠️ LOW TEST COVERAGE DETECTED Before refactoring, we MUST create "golden tests": 1. Snapshot current output for...

```bash # MANDATORY before starting git status git diff --name-only wc -l {target_file} ``` **Questions to answer:** 1. What is the file size? (lines, tokens) 2. What test coverage exists? 3. Are there dependent files? 4. Is there global state / singletons? 5. What is the current LLM-readability problem? (Why is this hard to understand?)

**Phase A agent MUST evaluate all large data structures:** | Pattern | File/Code | Database | Why | |---------|-----------|----------|-----| | **Visualization mappings** (50-200 entries) | ✅ Config file | ❌ | Static, versioned with code, grows slowly | | **Analysis rules** (100-500 entries) | ❌ | ✅ Database | User-customizable, frequent updates | | **ECharts templates** (20-50 variants) | ✅ Config file | ❌ | Static, deployed with code | | **Customer settings** (per-customer data) | ❌ | ✅...

**Prefer 200-400 lines over 800 lines:** - 200-400 lines = LLM reads entire file in one pass, builds complete mental model - 400-800 lines = LLM may need to scroll back, loses context - > 800 lines = LLM MUST chunk, loses holistic understanding ---

**Hard rule for Phase A agent:** - No extracted module shall exceed **800 lines** - If a logical grouping is > 800 lines, **split it further** - Target: 200-400 lines per file (LLM sweet spot — fits in one read)

**❌ FORBIDDEN: Creating new giant files** ``` Original: AnalysisOrchestrator.php (11,925 lines) ↓ BAD REFACTORING ↓ DomainLogic.php (9,000 lines) ❌ STILL A MONOLITH! Infrastructure.php (2,900 lines) ✅ OK ```

One paragraph: what business problem this module solves.

**Model:** `generic-light` (Haiku, 1x) **Token Budget:** 3-8k tokens **Purpose:** Create the documentation a new LLM reads FIRST **Create `ARCHITECTURE.md` in each major module directory:** ```markdown # {Module Name}

**Model:** `generic-balanced-thinking` (Sonnet + thinking, 33x) OR `generic-heavy` (Opus + thinking, 163x) **Token Budget:** 20-60k tokens **Purpose:** Verify BOTH semantic correctness AND LLM-readability after refactoring **Phase D Checks:** **Semantic (existing):** - Invariants preserved? - Side effects unchanged? - Error handling complete? - Missing test coverage? **LLM-Readability (new — REQUIRED):** - Can you describe what each module does in 1 sentence without reading implementation? -...

**Model:** `generic-light` (Haiku, 1x) OR `generic-fast-thinking` (Haiku + thinking, 4x) **Token Budget:** 5-15k tokens per chunk **Purpose:** Make code maximally readable for LLM without semantic changes **Phase C Operations (prioritized by LLM impact):** **High impact:** - Introduce DTOs for "mystery meat" arrays/objects (R-04) - Rename functions: `verb + noun = intention` (R-03) - Extract I/O from domain functions (R-01) - Standardize error handling to one pattern per module...

**Model:** `generic-development` (Sonnet, 8x) OR `generic-balanced-thinking` (Sonnet + thinking, 33x) **Token Budget:** 20-40k tokens per module **Purpose:** Move code into layer-separated files WITHOUT changing behavior **Phase B Rules:** - NO semantic changes — pure code movement - Each commit lands code in the correct layer (`domain/`, `application/`, `infrastructure/`) - Entrypoints call services; services call domain; domain has no I/O - Each commit builds and tests pass **Layer...

**Model:** `generic-balanced-thinking` (Sonnet + thinking, 33x) — DEFAULT **Upgrade to:** `generic-heavy` (Opus + thinking, 163x) — Only if 2+ complexity triggers **Token Budget:** 20-60k tokens **Purpose:** Build complete mental model AND assess LLM-readability before ANY code changes **Phase A Outputs (7 required):** 1. **LLM Readability Map** — cognitive load assessment per module (not just line counts) 2. **Dependency Direction Diagram** — is there a clear `domain → application →...

**R-01: Separation of Layers** Separate I/O (HTTP/CLI/DB), domain/business logic, and presentation/formatting into distinct modules. Goal: LLM can read "domain" without understanding networking, SQL, or framework. **R-02: Single Clear Entrypoint Per Flow** Few entrypoints (routes/commands/jobs) that call small, named services. Avoid "anything can call anything from anywhere." **R-03: Small Functions With Strong Names** 10–40 lines is the sweet spot. Name describes *intention*, not...

Every refactoring decision must be evaluated against: **"Can a new LLM understand this domain without reading infrastructure code?"**

Use MCP deploy tools (preferred) or scp.

- What changes? - Does it affect other customizations? - What caches need clearing? - Backup current files first
