Catching breaking interface changes in TypeScript refactors (AST-based)
TypeScript AST contracts feed LLMs correct props; stops AI from hallucinating missing fields.

AI Analysis
●●●BangerBig BrainSolve My ProblemWizardry
Execution-path analysis beats text search and embedding RAG for refactor safety.
Strengths
- •Deterministic program understanding via AST parsing replaces probabilistic embedding-based approaches.
- •Git-aware workflows (diff, check, open) integrate refactoring directly into development practice.
- •MCP server integration enables Claude/Cursor to reason about codebase impact with structured output.
Weaknesses
- •Limited to projects indexable as graphs—no clear story for non-standard codebases or polyglot repos.
- •Fuzzy symbol suggestions and typo tolerance are nice UX polish but don't address core value prop.
