Load this skill when reviewing refactor plans for naming and readability in languages without a dedicated naming skill.

Review goals

  • Prefer names that reveal intent and domain meaning.
  • Flag misleading abbreviations, overloaded terms, and hidden units or formats.
  • Distinguish readability issues from purely stylistic preferences.
  • Avoid mass renames unless the evidence shows concrete maintenance benefit.

Confidence rules

  • Use high confidence only when the issue is directly visible from the code or symbol names.
  • Lower confidence when the recommendation depends on ecosystem or language-specific naming conventions that are not proven in the repository.
  • If the code is too small or names are already clear, return no findings instead of inventing polish work.

Output notes

  • Evidence must cite concrete file/line/symbol examples.
  • Cosmetic-only rename suggestions belong out of executable work unless maintainability value is explicit.
