arXiv:2609.04898v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Repository-scale refactoring requires coding agents to propagate a single change across many interdependent files without altering program behavior, yet to our knowledge no existing harness isolates the design choices that determine agent success on this task. We present RefactorPlatform, an open-source evaluation harness that holds the environment fixed and varies each design axis explicitly: model backbone (via OpenRouter and GitHub Copilot CLI), execution regime (baseline, retrieval-augmented, and multi-agent), and prompt specificity
