# dry-refactoring
Guided workflow to eliminate copy-paste duplication in source code. Use after running [jscpd](../jscpd/SKILL.md) to detect clones.
## Prerequisites
First, run jscpd to identify duplications:
```bash
npx jscpd --reporters ai <path>
```
In codebases that mix related formats (e.g. JavaScript and TypeScript), add `--cross-formats` so clones spanning both are detected too:
