improve-code-quality
Guided journey from a working-but-untested vibe-coded prototype to a production-ready product with tests, clean structure, a business-rules boundary, and resilience at scale. Orchestrates nine skills phase by phase - working-with-legacy-code, clean-code, refactoring-patterns, software-design-philosophy, clean-architecture, pragmatic-programmer, release-it, system-design, ddia-systems - asking the user questions at every decision point and recording results in the project docs/ folder (TESTING.md, TECH-DEBT.md, IMPROVE-CODE-QUALITY-PLAN.md) so the journey resumes across sessions. Use when the user wants to harden an AI-generated prototype, add tests before refactoring, make code safe to change, or says 'this works on my machine but I am scared to touch it'. For an aged codebase, remove-technical-debt; for greenfield structure, design-code-architecture; for a product and UX pass, improve-app; to optimize speed and structure, architecture-optimization. For one framework in isolation, invoke that skill directly.

# Improve Code Quality
Turn a working-but-untested vibe-coded prototype into a product you can ship and operate. This is an
interactive, resumable journey of nine phases: the agent asks before every decision and records the
outcome in your project's `docs/` folder, so you can stop after any phase and pick up later. A
week-old prototype is already legacy code — so the first move is a safety net, and every phase after
it is verifiable because of that net.
## Core Principle
**A week-old untested prototype is already legacy code: flip tactical to strategic — safety net
first, then readability, structure, and production hardening in order.** This skill sequences the
phases, asks the decision questions, and records every choice in `docs/`. The constituent skills
carry the method — invoke them rather than improvising their frameworks. Skipping ahead (refactoring
