a5c-ai 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
