/gobby:ref - Create Refactoring Task

Create a refactoring task with the provided title and optional description. For code improvements that don't change behavior.

Usage

/gobby:ref <title>
/gobby:ref <title> - <description>

Examples

/gobby:ref Extract database logic into repository class
/gobby:ref Simplify authentication middleware - Current implementation has too many nested conditionals
/gobby:ref Convert callbacks to async/await in file handlers

Tool Schema Reminder

First time calling a tool this session? Use get_tool_schema(server_name, tool_name) before call_tool to get correct parameters. Schemas are cached per session—no need to refetch.

Action

Create a refactoring task with the following parameters:

• title: The refactoring title from user input
• task_type: "chore"
• labels: ["refactor"]
• priority: 3 (low - important but not urgent)

Parse the user input:

• If input contains " - ", split into title and description
• Otherwise, use entire input as title

call_tool(
    server_name="gobby-tasks",
    tool_name="create_task",
    arguments={
        "title": "<parsed title>",
        "description": "<parsed description if any>",
        "task_type": "chore",
        "labels": ["refactor"],
        "priority": 3,
        "session_id": "<session_id>"  # Required - from session context
    }
)

After creating, confirm with the task reference (e.g., "Created refactor #126: Extract database logic into repository class").
