Code Duplication Fixer¶

Fix code-duplication-detector issues by consolidating duplicate functions and opening a focused PR.

Workflow source: gh-aw-code-duplication-fixer.md

How it works¶

Picks up open issues filed by the Code Duplication Detector (labeled refactor or with [refactor] in the title), selects one well-scoped finding, refactors the duplicate or misplaced code, runs tests, and opens a PR. Only acts on safe, behavior-preserving refactors. Most runs end with noop.

Pairing¶

This workflow is the read-write companion to Code Duplication Detector. The detector finds issues; the fixer consolidates the duplicates.
