Refactoroscope

A Python-based command-line tool that provides comprehensive analysis of source code repositories. Think of it as an MRI scanner for your codebase - it doesn’t just show you what’s there, but reveals the health and complexity of your code structure.

Duplicate Code Detection

The Code Analyzer provides advanced AST-based duplicate code detection with the following features:

Clone Type Classification: Identifies different types of code clones:
- Exact Clones (Type-1): Identical code except for comments and whitespace
- Renamed Clones (Type-2): Syntactically identical with identifier renames
- Modified Clones (Type-3): Semantically similar with small modifications
- Semantic Clones (Type-4): Functionally equivalent but syntactically different
Cross-File Detection: Finds duplicate code patterns across different files in your project
Similarity Scoring: Provides quantitative similarity measures between code blocks (0.0 to 1.0)
Performance Optimizations: Uses caching and global indexing for efficient analysis of large codebases

The duplicate detection can be customized with the duplicates command:

# Analyze for exact duplicates only (complexity analysis is now included by default)
uv run refactoroscope duplicates src/ --type exact

# Find similar code with minimum similarity threshold
uv run refactoroscope duplicates src/ --min-similarity 0.8

# Focus on renamed clones
uv run refactoroscope duplicates src/ --type renamed

Installation

First, install uv if you haven’t already:

curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh

Then install the dependencies:

uv sync

Or install directly from PyPI:

pip install refactoroscope

Usage

Basic Analysis

# Analyze current directory (complexity analysis is now enabled by default)
uv run refactoroscope analyze .

# Analyze specific directory
uv run refactoroscope analyze /path/to/project

# Disable complexity analysis (if needed)
uv run refactoroscope analyze . --no-complexity

# Enable AI-powered suggestions
uv run refactoroscope analyze . --ai

AI-Powered Analysis

Refactoroscope provides AI-powered code quality suggestions using multiple AI providers including OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and Ollama. The AI analysis provides intelligent insights on code readability, performance, potential bugs, and security issues.

# Analyze with AI only
uv run refactoroscope ai /path/to/project

# Analyze with a specific AI provider
uv run refactoroscope ai /path/to/project --provider openai

# Enable AI suggestions during regular analysis
uv run refactoroscope analyze . --ai

# Enable AI suggestions during watching
uv run refactoroscope watch . --ai

AI Provider Configuration

To use AI-powered features, you need to configure at least one AI provider in your .refactoroscope.yml configuration file:

# AI configuration
ai:
  # Enable AI-powered code suggestions
  enable_ai_suggestions: true
  
  # Maximum file size to analyze with AI (in bytes)
  max_file_size: 50000
  
  # Whether to cache AI analysis results
  cache_results: true
  
  # Cache time-to-live in seconds
  cache_ttl: 3600
  
  # Preference order for AI providers
  provider_preferences:
    - "openai"
    - "anthropic"
    - "google"
    - "ollama"
  
  # Provider configurations
  providers:
    openai:
      # API key (can also be set via OPENAI_API_KEY environment variable)
      # api_key: "your-openai-api-key"
      
      # Model to use
      model: "gpt-3.5-turbo"
      
      # Whether this provider is enabled
      enabled: true
    
    anthropic:
      # API key (can also be set via ANTHROPIC_API_KEY environment variable)
      # api_key: "your-anthropic-api-key"
      
      # Model to use
      model: "claude-3-haiku-20240307"
      
      # Whether this provider is enabled
      enabled: true
    
    google:
      # API key (can also be set via GOOGLE_API_KEY environment variable)
      # api_key: "your-google-api-key"
      
      # Model to use
      model: "gemini-pro"
      
      # Whether this provider is enabled
      enabled: true
    
    ollama:
      # Ollama doesn't require API keys
      
      # Model to use
      model: "llama2"
      
      # Base URL for Ollama (default is localhost)
      base_url: "http://localhost:11434"
      
      # Whether this provider is enabled
      enabled: true

Supported AI Providers

OpenAI: Supports GPT models (GPT-3.5, GPT-4, etc.)
Anthropic: Supports Claude models
Google: Supports Gemini models
Ollama: Supports locally-run models (no API key required)

For cloud-based providers, you can set API keys via environment variables:

OPENAI_API_KEY for OpenAI
ANTHROPIC_API_KEY for Anthropic
GOOGLE_API_KEY for Google

Real-time Watching

# Watch current directory for changes (complexity analysis is now enabled by default)
uv run refactoroscope watch .

# Enable AI-powered suggestions during watching
uv run refactoroscope watch . --ai

# Disable complexity analysis (if needed)
uv run refactoroscope watch . --no-complexity

Output Formats

# Display in terminal (default)
uv run refactoroscope analyze . --output terminal

# Export to JSON
uv run refactoroscope analyze . --export json --export-dir ./reports

# Export to multiple formats
uv run refactoroscope analyze . --export json,html --export-dir ./reports

Advanced Usage

# Compare two analysis reports
uv run refactoroscope compare reports/report1.json reports/report2.json

# Initialize configuration file
uv run refactoroscope init

# Analyze for duplicate code with advanced options
uv run refactoroscope duplicates src/ --type exact --min-similarity 0.9

# Analyze for unused code
uv run refactoroscope unused src/

# Analyze for unused files
uv run refactoroscope unused-files src/

# Analyze for unused files with confidence threshold
uv run refactoroscope unused-files src/ --confidence 0.7

Unused Code Detection

Refactoroscope can identify potentially unused code in your Python projects using AST-based static analysis. This feature helps you identify dead code that can be safely removed to reduce technical debt.

The unused code detection identifies:

Unused functions and methods
Unused classes
Unused variables
Unused imports

# Analyze for unused code
uv run refactoroscope unused src/

# Get JSON output for unused code
uv run refactoroscope unused src/ --output json

The analysis provides confidence scores for each finding to help you distinguish between likely unused code and potential false positives.

Unused File Detection

Refactoroscope can also identify completely unused files in your Python projects using dependency graph analysis. This feature helps you identify entire files that are never imported by any other file in your project.

# Analyze for unused files
uv run refactoroscope unused-files src/

# Analyze for unused files with confidence threshold
uv run refactoroscope unused-files src/ --confidence 0.7

# Get JSON output for unused files
uv run refactoroscope unused-files src/ --output json

The unused file detection uses the following approach:

Builds a dependency graph of all Python files in your project
Identifies entry points (files with __main__ guards, common entry point names)
Performs reachability analysis to find files that are not reachable from entry points
Provides confidence scores to help distinguish between truly unused files and potential false positives

CI/CD Integration

Code Analyzer provides built-in support for popular CI/CD platforms:

GitHub Actions

To integrate Refactoroscope into your GitHub Actions workflow, create a workflow file in .github/workflows/:

name: Code Analysis
