Example session with this skill installed
We need to move order management out of our 9-year-old Rails 5 monolith into a new Go service with its own Postgres database. Orders are written by checkout, admin and a nightly ERP sync, and we cannot take downtime.
- Read your context and instructions
- Compiled the code migration planner
Phased plan to move order management from the Rails monolith to the Go service with zero downtime, using strangler-fig routing and gated dual writes.
Strangler-fig boundary
- Seam: an
OrdersGatewayinterface inside Rails. All three writers (checkout, admin, ERP sync) must call it before Phase 1 starts.
Phases
| Phase | What changes | Flag | Rollback gate |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0 Seam | All order access via OrdersGateway | none | Tests green, no direct Order calls outside it |
| 1 Shadow write | Rails writes, plus async write to Go | orders.shadow_write | Nightly diff clean for 7 days |
| 2 Dual write | Sync write to both, Rails is source of truth | orders.dual_write | Go write errors under threshold, reconcile clean |
| 3 Read switch | Admin reads from Go, then checkout | orders.read_from_go | Sampled response diffs clean |
| 4 Go primary | Go is source of truth, back-writes to Rails | orders.go_primary | Reverse flag tested in staging |
| 5 Decommission | Remove Rails order tables after a retention window | none | Final export archived |
Rules
- Only one flag changes per deploy.
- ERP sync moves last, since it writes in bulk.
- Every phase has a written rollback drill before it goes to production.
Next steps
- Inventory every code path that touches
Orderto finish Phase 0. - Build the diff and reconcile job before enabling shadow writes.

About this skill
What it does
The Code Migration Planner is a specialized architect-level skill designed to de-risk complex codebase transitions. It moves beyond simple refactoring by generating staged, incremental migration plans that eliminate "big-bang" deployments. Whether you are moving from Python 2 to 3, transitioning a monolith to microservices, or porting a legacy JS app to TypeScript, this skill structures the move using industry-standard patterns like the Strangler Fig and Dual-Writing.
Why use this skill
Typical AI prompts often suggest "replacing X with Y," which leads to long-lived feature branches and integration nightmares. This skill enforces a "shippable main" philosophy. It identifies the riskiest assumptions first and mandates rollback gates for every phase. By using this skill, you ensure that your migration is reversible, verifiable, and continuously integrated into your production environment.
Key Features
- Risk-First Sequencing: Prioritizes the most volatile components to prove feasibility early.
- Strangler Fig Design: Defines clear boundaries to migrate functionality bit-by-bit.
- Verification Phases: Implements dual-write and comparison logic to ensure data integrity.
- Feature Flag Routing: Uses flags to manage traffic between old and new implementations.
- Operational Safety: Defines explicit rollback criteria and "shippable main" constraints for every PR.
- Cannot execute code or run migrations directly.
- Requires team discipline to avoid long-lived branches.
- Success depends on existing CI/CD maturity.
