Anyone using tools like ndepend or others to help guide agents in refactors?
Personally I have a some tools that build dependency graphs (C# and Python) and store the results in a local database. Agents seem quite good at poking at this and coming up with refactor ideas. Graph analysis tools are useful here, simple application will detect cyclical dependencies, but I encourage the agents to use more complex tools like clustering to poke at the data.
I've been feeding agents dependency graphs plus CC and coverage data from a local store, and it works well for spotting cyclical deps and high-CC hotspots
