Rails Code Review & Refactoring Guide

Analyze Ruby/Rails code for unnecessary custom objects, class bloat, and insufficient usage of Ruby's generic data structures. Provide specific refactoring steps with before/after code examples.

Scope Determination

Determine scope from the user's request:

• File paths (e.g., app/models/user.rb): analyze only those files
• Directory paths (e.g., app/services/): analyze all Ruby files in that directory
• Branch name: compare current branch against it to review only changed files
• No scope specified: perform full codebase audit
• Focus area (e.g., "service objects", "value objects"): prioritize that aspect

Required Skill

MANDATORY: Load the simplifying-ruby-code skill and apply its principles throughout the analysis. Reference specific patterns explicitly (e.g., "Pattern 1: Command Objects -> Module Functions").
