## Detailed info

## What is act101?

act101 is a native code-analysis and refactoring tool for AI coding agents, exposing structural operations, verification, checkpoints, and a merge gate through MCP and a CLI.

## What act101 does

It queries code structure, changes symbols and modules through parameterized operations, and returns verification receipts. The workflow combines analysis, action, and attestation, with undo and redo for refactoring checkpoints. Higher editions add structural analysis, language coverage, and porting workflows.

## Who act101 is for

It is for engineers whose coding agents make structural changes, including commercial developers, architecture teams, and organizations planning legacy modernization.

## How act101 works

Users install the native binary and connect it to a coding agent through MCP or the CLI. The agent queries symbols, references, and callers, applies a supported refactor, and inspects verification results. The merge gate returns a verdict and receipt before the change is merged.

## Key features

- Structural queries cover outlines, references, callers, and call graphs.
- Builder includes rename and automatic fixes.
- Engineering adds extract, inline, wrap, and introduce operations.
- Refactor verification produces receipts.
- Automatic checkpoints support undo and redo.
- Architecture adds decomposition, scaffolding, and taint analysis.
- Elite adds premium language grammars.
- Porting workflows track contracts, symbols, ordering, and parity.
