# Refactoring Java Methods with Remove Parameter
## Role
You are an expert in refactoring Java methods.
Below are **2 examples** (with titles code before and code after refactoring) that represents **Remove Parameter**.
## Code Before Refactoring 1:
```java
public Backend selectBackendForGroupCommit(long tableId, ConnectContext context, boolean isCloud)
throws LoadException, DdlException {
if (!Env.getCurrentEnv().isMaster()) {
try {
long backendId = new MasterOpExecutor(context)
.getGroupCommitLoadBeId(tableId, context.getCloudCluster(), isCloud);
return Env.getCurrentSystemInfo().getBackend(backendId);
} catch (Exception e) {
throw new LoadException(e.getMessage());
}
} else {
return Env.getCurrentSystemInfo()
.getBackend(selectBackendForGroupCommitInternal(tableId, context.getCloudCluster(), isCloud));
}
}
```
## Code After Refactoring 1:
```java
public Backend selectBackendForGroupCommit(long tableId, ConnectContext context)
throws LoadException, DdlException {
if (!Env.getCurrentEnv().isMaster()) {
try {
long backendId = new MasterOpExecutor(context)
.getGroupCommitLoadBeId(tableId, context.getCloudCluster());
return Env.getCurrentSystemInfo().getBackend(backendId);
} catch (Exception e) {
throw new LoadException(e.getMessage());
}
} else {
return Env.getCurrentSystemInfo()
.getBackend(selectBackendForGroupCommitInternal(tableId, context.getCloudCluster()));
}
}
```
## Code Before Refactoring 2:
```java
NodeImpl( long id, long firstRel, long firstProp )
{
this( id, false );
}
```
## Code After Refactoring 2:
```java
NodeImpl( long id)
{
this( id, false );
}
```
## Task
Apply **Remove Parameter** to improve readability, testability, maintainability, reusability, modularity, cohesion, low coupling, and consistency.
Always return a complete and compilable method (Java 17).
Perform intermediate steps internally:
- First, analyze each method and identify parameters that are unused or redundant (i.e., values that can be obtained from class fields, constants, or other method calls).
- For each qualifying method, remove the unnecessary parameters from its definition and from all its internal calls.
- Ensure that the method continues to function correctly after parameter removal.
- Output only the refactored code inside a single ```java``` block.
- Do not remove any functionality from the original method.
- Include a one-line comment above each modified method indicating which parameter was removed and why.
## Code to be Refactored:
Now, assess all methods with unused parameters and refactor them using **Remove Parameter**Related Skills

Accessibility Standards
Comprehensive web accessibility standards based on WCAG 2.2 AA, with 38+ anti-patterns, legal enforcement context (EAA, ADA Title II), WAI-ARIA patterns, and framework-specific fixes for modern web frameworks and libraries.
Accord
Authoring unified specification packages across Business/Development/Design teams via staged elaboration (L0 Vision → L1 Requirements → L2 Team Detail → L3 Acceptance Criteria). No code. Use when authoring cross-team specs, building L0-L3 packages, or aligning Biz/Dev/Design on a single source of truth.
Acquire Codebase Knowledge
Use this skill when the user explicitly asks to map, document, or onboard into an existing codebase. Trigger for prompts like "map this codebase", "document this architecture", "onboard me to this repo", or "create codebase docs". Do not trigger for routine feature implementation, bug fixes, or narrow code edits unless the user asks for repository-level discovery.
Acreadiness Assess
Run the AgentRC readiness assessment on the current repository and produce a static HTML dashboard at reports/index.html. Wraps `npx github:microsoft/agentrc readiness` and hands off rendering to the @ai-readiness-reporter custom agent. Supports policies (--policy) for org-specific scoring. Use when asked to assess, audit, or score the AI readiness of a repo.
Acreadiness Generate Instructions
Generate tailored AI agent instruction files via AgentRC instructions command. Produces .github/copilot-instructions.md (default, recommended for Copilot in VS Code) plus optional per-area .instructions.md files with applyTo globs for monorepos. Use after running /acreadiness-assess to close gaps in the AI Tooling pillar.
Acreadiness Policy
Help the user pick, write, or apply an AgentRC policy. Policies customise readiness scoring by disabling irrelevant checks, overriding impact/level, setting pass-rate thresholds, or chaining org baselines with team overrides. Use when the user asks about strict mode, AI-only scoring, custom weights, CI gating, or wants org-wide standardisation.
