code-modernization: pilot-first uplift migration, brief-driven execution, deeper preflight
/modernize-uplift migrates one representative project end-to-end and
writes its lessons to analysis/<system>/PLAYBOOK.md before touching the
rest. The remaining projects then fan out through a new uplift-migrate
workflow, one uplift-migrator agent per project, in dependency-aware
escalating batches behind a per-batch circuit breaker. A recorded
per-test baseline (analysis/<system>/BASELINE.md) gates the migration,
and the delta catalog reports a test framework whose runner does not
support the target as its own highest-blast-radius dependency.

The three execution commands (uplift, transform, reimagine) read
MODERNIZATION_BRIEF.md and treat their phase's scope and entry and exit
criteria as gates, so editing the brief steers execution. For a
same-stack uplift the brief requires the delta catalog and applies the
same ordering overrides the execution command does.

/modernize-preflight opens with a short interview (scope, local build
and test, bespoke build infrastructure, prior attempts, what is off
limits) without blocking on the answers, reads the CI/build definition
for how the system builds, escalates the smoke test to a whole-project
restore and build, and adds a scope-boundary check that enumerates
inbound and outbound dependencies when the system directory is a slice
of a larger repository.

Workflow scripts accept args delivered as either a JSON string or an
object.

description: Where am I in the modernization workflow — artifact inventory, staleness, secrets hygiene, next step
argument-hint: <system-dir>
---
Report where the modernization of `$1` stands, in one screen. This is a
read-only command — inspect, never modify.
## 1 — Artifact inventory
Check `analysis/$1/` and `modernized/$1*/` and build a table — one row per
workflow stage, with the artifact's presence and modification time:
| Stage | Artifacts |
|---|---|
| preflight | `PREFLIGHT.md` (note whether the Check 0 human answers and the Check 6 scope-boundary finding are present) |
| assess | `ASSESSMENT.md`, `ARCHITECTURE.mmd` |
| map | `topology.json`, `TOPOLOGY.html`, `*.mmd`, `extract_topology.*` |
| extract-rules | `BUSINESS_RULES.md`, `DATA_OBJECTS.md` |
| brief | `MODERNIZATION_BRIEF.md` (note whether the approval block is signed) |
| harden | `SECURITY_FINDINGS.md`, `security_remediation.patch` |
| uplift | `DELTA_CATALOG.md`, `BASELINE.md`, `PLAYBOOK.md` (no playbook = the pilot hasn't happened yet — the fan-out must not); `modernized/$1-uplifted/UPLIFT_NOTES.md` (note per-unit: builds on target? baseline reproduced?) |
| transform | each `modernized/$1/<module>/` dir — note test presence and whether `TRANSFORMATION_NOTES.md` exists |
| reimagine | `modernized/$1-reimagined/` — note per-service acceptance tests and the `CLAUDE.md` handoff (reimagine's completion markers; it does NOT write `TRANSFORMATION_NOTES.md`) |
## 2 — Staleness
Flag any artifact older than an upstream artifact it derives from:
- `MODERNIZATION_BRIEF.md` older than `ASSESSMENT.md`, `topology.json`,
or `BUSINESS_RULES.md` → the brief no longer reflects discovery;
recommend re-running `/modernize-brief`.
- `MODERNIZATION_BRIEF.md` for a same-stack **uplift** plan that is older
than `DELTA_CATALOG.md` — or that has no catalog at all — → the phase
order was decided before (or without) the version deltas that determine
it; recommend re-running `/modernize-brief`.
- `TOPOLOGY.html` older than `topology.json` → re-run the injection step
from `/modernize-map`.
- Any `TRANSFORMATION_NOTES.md` older than `BUSINESS_RULES.md` → the
module may not implement the latest rule set; list which.
## 3 — Secrets hygiene
- Does `analysis/.gitignore` exist and cover `SECRETS.local.md` /
`*.local.patch`? (`git check-ignore` when in a git repo.)
- If `SECRETS.local.md` exists: confirm it is NOT tracked
(`git ls-files --error-unmatch`, expect failure) and has never been
committed (`git log --all --oneline -- <path>`, expect empty). If
either check fails, say so prominently and recommend rotation plus
history scrubbing.
## 4 — Verdict
End with three lines:
- **Where you are** — the furthest completed stage and roughly how much
of the system it covers (e.g. "mapped 100%, 2 of 14 modules
transformed").
- **What's stale** — or "nothing".
- **Next command** — the single most useful next step, with a one-line
reason.
