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
