Naming Analyzer

Software development skill, available on Zeplik

Naming Analyzer is a ready-to-run software development skill on Zeplik. Produces a naming analysis with concrete rename suggestions and reasons. Ask in plain language and Zeplik applies the skill's method for you inside the conversation, on whichever AI model you prefer. It returns a structured table you can keep and reuse: rows of location | current | issue | severity | suggestion | reason.

The Naming Analyzer skill loads automatically when your request matches it, or you can invoke it directly by typing /naming-analyzer in any chat. It works with attachments, connectors, and any model that supports the task, so you get the same expert method every time without setting anything up.

How the Naming Analyzer skill works

Naming Analyzer

Suggest better variable, function, and class names based on context and language conventions.

What to Analyze

  • Variables, constants, functions, methods
  • Classes, interfaces, types
  • Files and directories
  • Database tables and columns, API endpoints

Issues to Flag

  • Unclear or vague names (data, info, temp, x)
  • Abbreviations that obscure meaning (usrCfg, calcTtl)
  • Inconsistent conventions within one codebase
  • Misleading names (name doesn't match behavior / hidden side effects)
  • Single-letter variables outside loop counters
  • Booleans without is/has/can/should prefixes
  • Magic numbers that should be named constants
  • Hungarian notation misuse in modern code

Conventions by Language

Pythonsnake_casePascalCaseUPPER_SNAKE_CASEprivate _prefix
JavacamelCasePascalCaseUPPER_SNAKE_CASEpackages lowercase
GocamelCase (unexported)PascalCase (exported)—acronyms all-caps: HTTPServer

Naming Patterns to Follow

  • Functions/methods: verb phrase describing the action -- sendEmail, parseJSON, formatCurrency. If it mutates, say so (fetchAndUpdateUserLogin, not getUser).
  • Classes: nouns -- PaymentProcessor, EmailValidator. Avoid generic Manager/Helper/Utility unless justified.
  • Variables: descriptive nouns -- activeUsers not users2, emailAddress not x.
  • Constants: UPPER_SNAKE_CASE with units -- MAX_RETRY_ATTEMPTS, CACHE_DURATION_MS.
  • Booleans: question form, prefer positive -- isEnabled not isDisabled.

Boolean Prefix Guide

  • is for state: isActive, isVisible
  • has for possession: hasPermission, hasError
  • can for ability: canEdit, canDelete
  • should for decisions: shouldRender, shouldValidate

Naming Decision Tree

Is it a boolean?         -> is/has/can/should prefix
Is it a function?        -> verb phrase (action)
Is it a class/type?      -> noun (PascalCase)
Is it a constant?        -> UPPER_SNAKE_CASE (+units)
Otherwise                -> descriptive noun (camelCase/snake_case)

Guidance

  • Prioritize clarity over brevity; full words beat abbreviations.
  • Context matters: loop counters i, j, k are fine.
  • Well-known abbreviations (html, api, url, id) are acceptable.
  • Consistency within a project outranks perfect individual names.
  • Suggest IDE rename refactoring so all references update safely.

Output

A prioritized naming analysis, ideally a table with columns: location | current | issue | severity (Critical/Major/Minor) | suggestion | reason. Lead with Critical (misleading names), then Major (vague/abbreviated), then Minor (convention). Close with a short list of high-priority renames grouped by symbol.
