A comprehensive guide for mastering major dependency version upgrades in software development. This skill covers compatibility analysis, implementing staged upgrade strategies, resolving dependency conflicts, and setting up robust testing matrices (Unit, Integration, E2E) to ensure a smooth and reliable modernization process for any codebase.

This structured workflow guides the systematic, low-risk modernization of legacy systems using the Strangler Fig pattern. It provides a phased approach, starting with comprehensive assessment (risk, dependency mapping), establishing robust test coverage (contract testing, data management), and implementing incremental migration infrastructure (API gateways, feature flags) to ensure continuous business operation during the transition.

Provides a senior migration architect workflow that researches legacy codebases, maps bounded contexts, and writes Strangler Fig-based modernization roadmaps so other teams can incrementally reshape systems.

This skill outlines a comprehensive, low-downtime process for migrating APIs between different versions, frameworks, or platforms. It guides the implementation of advanced architectural patterns like the Strangler Fig pattern, traffic shadowing, and canary deployments. Use this when upgrading a monolithic API to microservices or transitioning between incompatible API versions.

This skill guides developers through modernizing React applications. It covers migrating from class components to functional components using hooks, upgrading React versions, adopting concurrent features (like Suspense), and applying automated refactoring techniques using codemods. It is essential for maintaining high-performance, modern React codebases and integrating TypeScript.

A specialized reverse-engineering skill designed to extract comprehensive functional and non-functional specifications from existing, undocumented, or legacy codebases. It operates by analyzing code structure, tracing data flows, and identifying observable behaviors. The output is structured using EARS (Easy Approach to Requirements Syntax), providing clearer requirements documentation, architectural diagrams, and dependency maps for onboarding or system modernization.

This skill acts as a comprehensive Go modernization engineer, scanning entire codebases to update outdated patterns, deprecated APIs, and standard library usage. It utilizes multi-agent orchestration to check language features, testing patterns, and tooling/infra, ensuring the codebase adheres to the latest Go idioms for maximum safety and readability. Ideal for CI/CD pipelines or large-scale code reviews.

This comprehensive guide provides a structured set of prompts to manage the entire lifecycle of upgrading a legacy .NET solution. It covers everything from initial project classification and dependency compatibility review to code modernization (e.g., async conversion), updating CI/CD pipelines, and defining robust testing and deployment strategies. Ideal for large-scale migration of older .NET applications to modern frameworks like .NET 8.

This meta-skill automates the complex process of modernizing legacy PDF documents (e.g., historical contracts, scanned manuals, legal documents). It follows a structured four-step pipeline: structural extraction, natural-language rewriting of problem pages, generating an audit summary, and finally re-merging the content into a single, refined PDF. This ensures content is modernized while maintaining fidelity to the original meaning, providing a human review summary before finalization.

A comprehensive guide and positioning tool for submitting manuscripts to top-tier Chinese public administration journals. It helps researchers assess if their work aligns with the journal's focus on governance modernization, policy execution, and government reform. The tool provides structural checklists, identifies common rejection risks, and suggests alternative journals for optimal submission.

This skill offers two complementary workflows for locally checked-out codebases. Documentation mode creates a definitive, cited architecture document ideal for onboarding and system research. Modernization mode then builds upon this documentation, generating a phased, safety-laddered plan to upgrade, migrate, or rewrite legacy systems. It emphasizes local-first analysis for maximum accuracy.

This skill provides a comprehensive guide for authors aiming to submit to *Economist*, a prominent theoretical economics journal. It analyzes the journal's scope—focusing on Chinese modernization, macro policy, and development—and helps authors refine their paper's theoretical depth, methodological rigor, and overall structure to meet high publication standards. It guides the structuring of the argument, identifies common rejection risks, and suggests potential alternative venues.
