Your migration roadmap, before you commit to anything else
A read-only review of your existing codebase (whether it's GAIA or not). Delivers a written report and a prioritized migration roadmap you can act on immediately, with or without continuing.
- Deep review of one repo against GAIA conventions. Lint posture, agentic-pattern gaps, AI-debt signals from recent PRs, existing CLAUDE.md and rules where present.
- A 15 to 25 page written report: what’s working, what’s costing you, and the prioritized migration roadmap.
- The migration roadmap is the core deliverable: an ordered list of refactors with effort and blast-radius estimates. The backlog your Migration Sprints burn down. Yours to keep regardless of next steps.
- 20-minute recorded walkthrough video.
- Optional 30-minute Q&A call within 2 weeks.
AI sprawl cleaned up, sprint by sprint
Hands-on refactor of your codebase, chunked into 2-week sprints. Commit one sprint at a time. Most migrations run 2 to 4. Each sprint delivers visible, reviewable results before you decide whether to continue.
AI-generated patterns layered on top of legacy ones. Conventions drift. Tests skipped. Token costs ballooning. Nothing enforced at write-time.
Patterns consolidated. Rules, hooks, and skills enforce them at the keystroke. PR reviews stop catching the same five things. The repo stops fighting itself.
- Per sprint: hands-on refactor of the top roadmap items that fit the budget. Pattern consolidation, AI-debt cleanup, type tightening.
- GAIA installed or extended on the code the sprint touches. Rules, hooks, skills, wiki templates.
- Commit-by-commit migration log. Every change visible and reviewable.
- Short "what changed / what to watch" note after each sprint.
- Cumulative remediation report that grows across sprints. The full before/after catalog.
- 30 days of post-delivery email support per sprint.
- Optional 30-minute handoff call within 2 weeks of sprint delivery.
