Description
Explore migration paths when planning architecture changes. Documents current state, identifies options with trade-offs for informed decision-making.

Explore Migration Command

Explore technical migration options by analyzing current architecture and documenting possible paths with trade-offs.

Usage

/enterprise-architecture:explore-migration <target-state-description>

Arguments

  • target-state-description (required): Description of the desired end state
    • Examples: "microservices", "cloud-native", "event-driven", "containerized"

Examples

/enterprise-architecture:explore-migration microservices architecture
/enterprise-architecture:explore-migration migrate from monolith to modular monolith
/enterprise-architecture:explore-migration replace legacy ORM with modern data access

Workflow

  1. Analyze Current State

    • Scan codebase for architecture patterns
    • Identify dependencies and coupling
    • Document current technology stack

  2. Spawn Migration Explorer Agent Use the migration-explorer agent to explore options. The agent:

    • Documents current state architecture
    • Identifies multiple migration paths
    • Analyzes trade-offs for each path
    • Explores rather than prescribes

  3. Present Migration Options Display options organized by:

    • Current State Summary
    • Migration Options (with trade-offs)
    • Risk Assessment
    • Next Steps for Planning

Important Note

This command explores technical options. Complete migration planning requires additional business context (budget, team capacity, timeline, compliance needs). The output should inform broader planning discussions, not replace them.

Output Format

## Migration Exploration: [Target State]

### Scope of This Analysis
This document explores technical migration options based on code structure analysis.
Complete migration planning requires additional business context:
- Budget constraints and approval processes
- Team capacity and skill availability
- Business timeline requirements
- Risk tolerance and compliance needs

### Current State
- Architecture pattern: [identified]
- Key dependencies: [list]
- Technical debt areas: [identified]

### Migration Option 1: [Name]
**Approach:** [Description]
**Pros:**
- [benefit]
**Cons:**
- [drawback]
**Estimated complexity:** [Low/Medium/High]

### Migration Option 2: [Name]
[Same structure]

### Migration Option 3: [Name]
[Same structure]

### Trade-off Comparison
| Factor | Option 1 | Option 2 | Option 3 |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Complexity | ... | ... | ... |
| Risk | ... | ... | ... |
| Reversibility | ... | ... | ... |

### Recommended Next Steps
1. [Planning activity]
2. [Validation step]
3. [Stakeholder discussion]
