Upgrade planning

Upgrade libraries with guardrails

Modernising dependencies often spans multiple repositories and teams. PlanToCode helps you scope the work, document each step, and keep an auditable trail of what changed.

Identify affected files

Trigger the file discovery workflow against your project directory to gather upgrade hotspots. The orchestrated background jobs record selected roots and make them available to every subsequent plan or prompt.

File discovery workflow

Track upgrade plans

Review generated plans inside the Monaco viewer, compare revisions, and merge overlapping proposals. Plans stay linked to background jobs, so you can reopen the relevant terminal session or prompt copy modal whenever you revisit the upgrade.

Implementation plans

Stay within model limits

Upgrade prompts often include large diffs. Task-level model settings define which models are allowed, and the selector toggle blocks any choice whose context window cannot handle the estimated prompt plus output tokens.

Model guardrails

Document execution history

Terminal sessions keep full output logs and connection health, even after restarts. Voice transcription can add spoken context to tricky migration steps, creating a searchable trail for release notes and change reviews.
