Variable names throughout the codebase used single-letter or cryptic abbreviations that obscured meaning (c, ch, sm, sc, acm, s, m, p, rt, sb, pq).

Changes

Receiver names

  • cclient, cachedClient, cache (api, cache packages)
  • sccalculator (scoring)
  • chhandler (bot.CommandHandler)
  • smmanager (bot.ScoreboardManager)
  • acmmanager (performance.AdaptiveConcurrencyManager)

Parameters and locals

  • s *discordgo.Sessionsession *discordgo.Session
  • m *discordgo.MessageCreatemessage *discordgo.MessageCreate
  • pqpriorityQueue (cache heap operations)
  • sb strings.Builderbuilder strings.Builder

Loop variables

  • pparticipant
  • rtresponseTime

Before:

func (ch *CommandHandler) HandleMessage(s *discordgo.Session, m *discordgo.MessageCreate) {
    for _, p := range participants {
        tierName := ch.deps.TierManager.GetTierName(p.StartTier)
    }
}

After:

func (handler *CommandHandler) HandleMessage(session *discordgo.Session, message *discordgo.MessageCreate) {
    for _, participant := range participants {
        tierName := handler.deps.TierManager.GetTierName(participant.StartTier)
    }
}

Note: Fixed variable shadowing in handleCacheStats where local message string conflicted with parameter name.
