Strangler Fig

Agent skill
1 skill

Use when rebuilding a scoped section of legacy code clean-room — when the existing implementation is polluting attempts to improve it and a from-scratch rewrite is wanted. Distills the legacy code to pure functional requirements, builds a firewalled greenfield reimplementation that a separate agent designs WITHOUT ever seeing the legacy code, verifies behavioral parity, and optionally cuts over. Triggers on /strangler-fig, clean-room rewrite, rebuild this module from scratch, strangle this legacy code, the old code keeps leading the rewrite astray.
