Principle Definitions

SRP - Single Responsibility Principle

definition: "A class should have only one reason to change"
detection:
  indicators:
    - Multiple unrelated methods
    - Mixed abstraction levels
    - Too many dependencies
  thresholds:
    methods_per_class: 10
    dependencies: 5
    lines_of_code: 200

OCP - Open/Closed Principle

definition: "Open for extension, closed for modification"
detection:
  indicators:
    - Switch statements on type
    - Instanceof/typeof checks
    - Frequent modifications for new features
  patterns:
    - Strategy pattern opportunity
    - Template method opportunity

LSP - Liskov Substitution Principle

definition: "Subtypes must be substitutable for base types"
detection:
  indicators:
    - Overridden methods with different behavior
    - Empty method implementations
    - Type checking in polymorphic code
  violations:
    - Precondition strengthening
    - Postcondition weakening
    - Invariant breaking

ISP - Interface Segregation Principle

definition: "Clients should not depend on interfaces they don't use"
detection:
  indicators:
    - Large interfaces (>5 methods)
    - Unused method implementations
    - Throw NotImplemented patterns
  thresholds:
    max_interface_methods: 5

DIP - Dependency Inversion Principle

definition: "Depend on abstractions, not concretions"
detection:
  indicators:
    - Direct instantiation with 'new'
    - Concrete class parameters
    - No interface/abstract usage
  patterns:
    - Constructor injection missing
    - Service locator anti-pattern

Usage Examples

Basic Analysis

// Input
{
  code: "class UserService { ... }",
  language: "typescript"
}

// Output
{
  violations: [
    {
      principle: "SRP",
      location: "UserService:1",
      severity: "high",
      message: "Class has 5 different responsibilities",
      suggestion: "Extract to: AuthService, ProfileService, NotificationService"
    }
  ],
  compliance_score: 65,
  suggestions: [...],
  metrics: { srp: 60, ocp: 80, lsp: 100, isp: 70, dip: 45 }
}

Focused Analysis

// Input
{
  code: "interface Repository { ... }",
  language: "typescript",
  principles: ["ISP"],
  strictness: "strict"
}

Unit Test Template

      const code = `
        class UserManager {
          saveUser() {}

          generateReport() {}
          validateInput() {}
          logActivity() {}
        }
      `;

      const result = await skill.analyze({ code, language: 'typescript' });

      expect(result.violations).toContainEqual(
        expect.objectContaining({ principle: 'SRP' })
      );
      expect(result.compliance_score).toBeLessThan(70);
    });

    it('should pass for well-designed code', async () => {
      const code = `
        class UserRepository {
          save(user: User): void {}
          find(id: string): User {}

      expect(result.violations).toHaveLength(0);

    });

    it('should handle invalid input gracefully', async () => {
      await expect(
        skill.analyze({ code: '', language: 'typescript' })
      ).rejects.toThrow('INVALID_INPUT');

Error Handling

errors:
  INVALID_INPUT:
    code: 400
    message: "Invalid input parameters"
    recovery: "Check parameter schema"

  UNSUPPORTED_LANGUAGE:
    code: 400
    message: "Language not supported"
    recovery: "Use supported language"

  ANALYSIS_TIMEOUT:
    code: 408
    message: "Analysis exceeded time limit"
    recovery: "Reduce code size or complexity"

  CONTEXT_OVERFLOW:
    code: 413
    message: "Code too large for analysis"
    recovery: "Split into smaller modules"
