Characterize Legacy Code Before the LLM Translates It

Описание и применение

<p>Legacy modernization is mostly archaeology. A model can read a sprawling, undocumented codebase, explain modules, map dependencies, translate languages, and draft migrations, compressing days of careful reading into a reviewable draft. The catch is the business rules that live outside the syntax: say, an exception that exists because of a contract signed in 2011, the kind of rule that exists for a reason no doc explains. A model reads the code, not the intent, so it can fluently reproduce structure while getting a critical behavior wrong. A subtly wrong migration is worse than an obviously
