name: refactor-import-hygiene license: MIT description: | Audit Python imports to preserve semantic context and prevent shadowing after refactors. Prefer namespace-first imports over direct symbol imports for generic identifiers. metadata: author: Jordan Godau references: - 01_GOAL.md - 02_DEFINITION.md - 03_RULES.md - 04_PROCEDURE.md - 05_OUTPUT.md - 06_EXAMPLES.md keywords: - import - imports - namespace - shadowing - collision - from import - symbol

Instructions

Read all references in references/ before using this skill.

Signals

• Module-stutter was removed and symbols became intentionally generic (Metadata, Spec, File, Header, Payload)
• A refactor moved code into new namespaces and callsites were updated
• The diff introduces many from X import Y imports
• There are repeated name collisions or ambiguous identifiers in local scopes
