What this skill does

Legacy Code Modernization Workflow Orchestrate a comprehensive legacy system modernization using the strangler fig pattern, enabling gradual replacement of outdated components while maintaining continuous business operations through expert agent coordination. [Extended thinking: The strangler fig pattern, named after the tropical fig tree that gradually envelops and replaces its host, represents the gold standard for risk-managed legacy modernization. This workflow implements a systematic approach where new functionality gradually replaces legacy components, allowing both systems to coexist during transition. By orchestrating specialized agents for assessment, testing, security, and implementation, we ensure each migration phase is validated before proceeding, minimizing disruption while maximizing modernization velocity.] Use this skill when Working on legacy code modernization workflow tasks or workflows Needing guidance, best practices, or checklists for legacy code modernization workflow Do not use this skill when The task is unrelated to legacy code modernization workflow You need a different domain or tool outside this scope Instructions Clarify goals, constraints, and required inputs. Apply relevant best practices and validate outcomes. Provide actionable steps and verification. If detailed examples are required, open resources/implementation-playbook.md. Phase 1: Legacy Assessment and Risk Analysis 1. Comprehensive Legacy System Analysis Use Task tool with subagenttype="legacy-modernizer" Prompt: "Analyze the legacy codebase at $ARGUMENTS. Document technical debt inventory including: outdated dependencies, deprecated APIs, security vulnerabilities, performance bottlenecks, and architectural anti-patterns. Generate a modernization readiness report with component complexity scores (1-10), dependency mapping, and database coupling analysis. …
