Description
Execute automated AST-based code transformations for large-scale refactoring and migration

Codemod Executor Skill

Executes automated code transformations using AST-based tools for large-scale refactoring, framework migrations, and language version upgrades.

Purpose

Enable automated code transformations for:

  • Framework migration (React, Angular, Vue)
  • Language version upgrades
  • API deprecation handling
  • Pattern standardization
  • Large-scale refactoring

Capabilities

1. AST-Based Transformations

  • Parse source code to AST
  • Apply transformation rules
  • Generate modified source
  • Preserve code style

2. Pattern Matching and Replacement

  • Define source patterns
  • Specify target patterns
  • Handle edge cases
  • Support wildcards and captures

3. Multi-File Transformations

  • Apply across entire codebase
  • Handle import updates
  • Coordinate cross-file changes
  • Manage side effects

4. Dry-Run Preview

  • Preview changes before applying
  • Generate diff reports
  • Estimate impact scope
  • Identify risky transformations

5. Rollback Support

  • Create transformation checkpoints
  • Enable selective rollback
  • Track applied codemods
  • Maintain change history

6. Custom Codemod Creation

  • Define new transformation rules
  • Test codemods in isolation
  • Document transformation logic
  • Share across teams
