[lint-monster] LintMonster: function-length refactoring (455 findings) #65471

Findings

The current make golint-custom run reports 455 functions over the 60-line limit across pkg/cli (296) and pkg/workflow (159). This is the single shared tracking topic for the backlog. The label-filtered searches found no matching open or recent closed lint-monster tracking issue, so this is the authoritative issue for the current count. No duplicate issues were linked or closed.

Representative next files to refactor, based on current finding counts, include pkg/cli/audit_diff_render.go, pkg/workflow/cache_memory.go, pkg/workflow/central_slash_command_workflow.go, pkg/workflow/compiler_safe_outputs_steps.go, and pkg/cli/audit_diff.go.

Remediation checklist

• Refactor the listed functions in small slices, extracting focused helpers while preserving behavior.
• Keep each change scoped to current function-length findings in pkg/cli and pkg/workflow; avoid unrelated cleanup.
• Prefer minimal, targeted edits and update affected tests where behavior boundaries change.
• Run make golint-custom and refresh this issue’s count and affected paths from that run.

Expected outcome: the shared function-length backlog shrinks without behavior changes, with the remaining count tracked from the latest lint run.
