Check codebase compatibility with target framework versions and generate migration paths

Instructions available. Your AI can read the instructions. Execution depends on the setup they require.

Add ahel to your AI once: Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code or Codex. Then ask it to use this.

Then ask your AI: use the Framework Compatibility Checker Skill skill

What this skill tells your AI

The instructions your AI receives, as published by a5c-ai/babysitter in library/specializations/code-migration-modernization/skills/framework-compatibility-checker/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.

Checks codebase compatibility with target framework versions, identifies breaking changes, and recommends migration paths.

Purpose

Enable framework upgrade assessment for:

  • Deprecated API detection
  • Breaking change impact analysis
  • Compatibility matrix generation
  • Migration path recommendation
  • Risk assessment

Capabilities

1. Deprecated API Usage Detection

  • Find deprecated method calls
  • Identify removed APIs
  • Detect obsolete patterns
  • Map replacement APIs

2. Breaking Change Impact Analysis

  • Analyze upgrade changelogs
  • Match breaking changes to code
  • Estimate impact scope
  • Prioritize by severity

3. Compatibility Matrix Generation

  • Map current vs target versions
  • List compatible dependencies
  • Identify version conflicts
  • Generate upgrade paths

4. Migration Path Recommendation

  • Suggest incremental upgrades
  • Identify intermediate versions
  • Recommend safe upgrade order
  • Plan breaking change handling

5. Risk Assessment

  • Score upgrade difficulty
  • Identify high-risk areas
  • Estimate testing needs
  • Calculate timeline impact
