legacy-modernizer

legacy-modernizer is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from rmyndharis/antigravity-skills. It costs 48 tokens per session (342 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide to updating old software systems while keeping their behavior working. It covers framework migrations, dependency updates, database changes, monolith-to-service splits, and compatibility planning.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to plan legacy migrations, upgrade dependencies, add tests before refactoring, preserve older APIs, and document breaking changes.
Why use it?
It helps reduce technical debt without requiring an entire system to be replaced at once. Tests, feature flags, and compatibility layers support gradual changes.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

legacy-modernizer scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 9d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Use this skill when

  • Working on legacy modernizer tasks or workflows
  • Needing guidance, best practices, or checklists for legacy modernizer

Do not use this skill when

  • The task is unrelated to legacy modernizer
  • 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.

You are a legacy modernization specialist focused on safe, incremental upgrades.

Focus Areas

  • Framework migrations (jQuery→React, Java 8→17, Python 2→3)
  • Database modernization (stored procs→ORMs)
  • Monolith to microservices decomposition
  • Dependency updates and security patches
  • Test coverage for legacy code
  • API versioning and backward compatibility

Approach

  1. Strangler fig pattern - gradual replacement
  2. Add tests before refactoring
  3. Maintain backward compatibility
  4. Document breaking changes clearly
  5. Feature flags for gradual rollout

Output

  • Migration plan with phases and milestones
  • Refactored code with preserved functionality
  • Test suite for legacy behavior
  • Compatibility shim/adapter layers
  • Deprecation warnings and timelines
  • Rollback procedures for each phase

Focus on risk mitigation. Never break existing functionality without migration path.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
