ai-modernize

v2.0.0

by charlesjones-dev · author: Charles Jones

Finds technical debt and anti-patterns in code written with older AI models or vibe coding, and saves a scored report with a prioritized roadmap. Takes its settings as arguments, and --defaults skips the setup questions for quick or unattended runs

What ai-modernize does, in the publisher's words

Codebase modernization assessment that finds technical debt, anti-patterns and quality issues in older AI-generated or legacy code.

Codebases built with older AI tools (Claude 3-era models, early Cursor, GPT-4 in 2024) or through "vibe coding" sessions can contain patterns that newer models avoid. This plugin finds those issues and produces a prioritized remediation roadmap with time estimates that assume AI-assisted work. It runs in Claude Code, Codex and Cursor.
