## Suggested Refactoring into Modules ### ConfigurationModule This module could encapsulate all the constants and environment-dependent settings. ```ruby module Configuration HOME = Pathname.new(ENV['HOME']) PROMPTS_DIR = Pathname.new(ENV['PROMPTS_DIR'] || (HOME + ".prompts_dir")) AI_CLI_PROGRAM = "mods" EDITOR = ENV['EDITOR'] || 'edit' MY_NAME = Pathname.new(__FILE__).basename.to_s.split('.')[0] MODS_MODEL = ENV['MODS_MODEL'] || 'gpt-4-1106-preview' OUTPUT = Pathname.pwd + "temp.md" PROMPT_LOG = PROMPTS_DIR + "_prompts.log" USAGE = <<~EOUSAGE AI Assistant (aia) ================== The AI cli program being used is: #{AI_CLI_PROGRAM} You can pass additional CLI options to #{AI_CLI_PROGRAM} like this: "#{MY_NAME} my options -- options for #{AI_CLI_PROGRAM}" EOUSAGE end ``` ### OptionParsingModule This module could manage the parsing of command-line arguments and configuring the options for the application. ```ruby module OptionParsing def build_reader_methods # ... method definition ... end def process_arguments # ... method definition ... end def check_for(an_option) # ... method definition ... end def process_option(option_sym, switches) # ... method definition ... end end ``` ### CommandLineInterfaceModule This module would manage interactions with the command-line interface including editing of prompts and selection processes. ```ruby module CommandLineInterface def keyword_value(kw, default) # ... method definition ... end def handle_multiple_prompts(found_these, while_looking_for_this) # ... method definition ... end end ``` ### LoggingModule Responsible for logging the results of the command. ```ruby module Logging def write_to_log(answer) # ... method definition ... end end ``` ### AICommandModule Manages the building and execution of the AI CLI command. ```ruby module AICommand def setup_cli_program # ... method definition ... end def build_command # ... method definition ... end def execute_and_log_command(command) # ... method definition ... end end ``` ### PromptProcessingModule Handles prompt retrieval, existing check, and keyword processing. ```ruby module PromptProcessing def existing_prompt?(prompt_id) # ... method definition ... end def process_prompt # ... method definition ... end def replace_keywords # ... method definition ... end def search_for_a_matching_prompt(prompt_id) # ... method definition ... end end ``` Each module should only contain the methods relevant to that module's purpose. After defining these modules, they can be included in the `AIA::Main` class where appropriate. Note that the method `get_prompt_id` didn't fit neatly into one of the outlined modules; it may remain in the main class or be included in a module if additional context becomes available or if it can be logically grouped with similar methods. The `__END__` block and the Readline history management could be encapsulated into a separate module for terminal interactions if that block grows in complexity or moves out of the overall class definition.
