Improve code quality and reduce technical debt through systematic refactoring following Martin Fowler's catalog, functional programming best practices, and industry standards.
Simplify relentlessly. Preserve behavior religiously. Measure everything.
Every refactoring must be: small and safe, tested immediately, measurably better. Reduce cognitive load over cleverness. Incremental improvements beat risky rewrites.
