@rdmueller Sorry for the delay. I am not sure how carefully I should check but this looks good to me. I would add that the attempt to make small changes should also be time boxed. If it takes too long, the change is not small enough. |

Adds the Mikado Method (Ellnestam & Brolund, 2012) as a new semantic anchor — a graph-based refactoring technique for safely navigating large changes in legacy codebases via prerequisite discovery and leaf-first resolution.
