Refactor boldly. Roll back instantly.
StateSense gives you a safety net for big refactors — so you can explore aggressively without fear.
Large refactors are high-risk, high-reward operations. You might touch 20 files, restructure an entire module, or change a core data model that cascades through the codebase. If halfway through you realize the approach is wrong, recovering can be a manual nightmare — especially if you haven't committed a clean baseline.
StateSense captures your workspace state before you start and at intervals throughout the refactor. At any point, you can preview what changed, restore a specific checkpoint, or compare two points in your refactor history side-by-side.
How it works
Take a named snapshot before you start
Before beginning a large refactor, use Ctrl+Shift+P → StateSense: Take Snapshot. Give it a name like 'Before auth refactor' — this becomes your baseline.
Refactor with confidence
Auto-snapshots continue in the background as you work. Every significant batch of changes gets a snapshot automatically.
Restore any mid-refactor state
If you went down the wrong path, restore any earlier snapshot. StateSense reconstructs the full workspace state, not just individual files.
Compare snapshots side-by-side
Use the visual diff to understand what changed between any two points in your refactor history.
