SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Recommends a migration strategy with explicit trade-offs by evaluating legacy-system size, paradigm gap, and stakeholder appetite, while producing a migration strategy, risk register, and cutover plan for human approval.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Strategy evaluation with traceable justification: Synthesizes migration brief, paradigm decision (including derived appetite and gap severity), and target constraints to assess applicability using an advisory catalog.
  • Human-in-the-loop recommendation: Produces a recommendation and rationale, but does not decide on the final approach, ensuring the decision remains with the user.
  • Migration execution artifacts: Generates migration_strategy.md, risk_register.md, and cutover_plan.md aligned to the chosen strategy, including edge-case handling like regulatory domains and undefined constraints.

Quick Start

Run the reversa workflow and activate reversa-strategist to generate migration_strategy.md, risk_register.md, and cutover_plan.md from your migration brief and paradigm decision.

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I plan a legacy system migration with clear risk trade-offs?

Migration strategy evaluation assesses legacy-system size, paradigm gap severity, and stakeholder appetite to recommend an approach with explicit trade-offs. It generates a migration strategy, risk register, and cutover plan for final human selection.

How do I create a cutover plan for transitioning critical business rules?

Cutover planning for critical business rules applies appetite constraints and paradigm gap severity to architect the transition. It outputs cutover_plan.md aligned with the chosen strategy to handle regulatory and financial logic edge cases.

What is human-in-the-loop governance for migration strategy selection?

Human-in-the-loop governance for migration strategy selection means the system produces a recommendation and rationale but never decides the final approach. The decision remains with the user, ensuring oversight of legacy-to-target transitions.

How do I build a risk register for a legacy system migration?

Risk register creation for legacy system migration evaluates the migration brief and paradigm decision inputs. It produces risk_register.md documenting identified risks and trade-offs aligned to the recommended cutover strategy.

Does migration strategy evaluation work for systems with severe paradigm gaps?

Migration strategy evaluation handles severe paradigm gaps by deriving gap severity and stakeholder appetite from paradigm decision inputs. It assesses applicability using an advisory catalog to recommend a trade-off-aware transition approach.

What are the limitations of automated migration strategy recommendation?

Automated migration strategy recommendation cannot decide the final approach or handle undefined constraints autonomously. It requires human selection and approval, serving as an advisory tool that produces rationale rather than executing the migration.
