💡 What: Refactored needsResize flag in ClampToWorkArea.
🎯 Why: Reusing a single boolean flag to sequentially accumulate state from distinct conditions makes it harder to read and understand the intent.
📖 Readability: Extracted the height and width clamp conditions into explicitly named variables needsHeightClamp and needsWidthClamp before logically combining them into needsResize.

Code Review

What this PR does: Refactors the ClampToWorkArea method in Services/WindowService.cs to replace a reused boolean accumulator (needsResize reassigned twice) with two explicitly named variables (needsHeightClamp, needsWidthClamp) that are then combined once into needsResize.

Overall assessment: Approve — clean, correct refactor with no issues.

Correctness

The logic is semantically identical. The value of needsResize at its point of use (the early-return guard and the resize branch) is unchanged: (size.Height > maxHeight) || (size.Width > maxWidth). The intermediate clampedHeight computation used the original needsResize before its OR-reassignment, which is exactly the same as the new needsHeightClamp. No behavioral change.

Code quality

The refactor is a genuine improvement. Reusing a single flag to sequentially accumulate state from two unrelated conditions is a mild anti-pattern — a reader has to track the variable across multiple mutations to understand its final meaning. The renamed variables make each guard condition self-documenting at the point of declaration.

Standards

  • Naming follows CLAUDE.md's camelCase convention for locals.
  • No spurious comments added.
  • No unnecessary abstractions.

Testing

Existing ClampToWorkArea_* tests in WindowServiceTests.cs cover the method's behaviour and will catch any regression.
