Code Necromancer

Tagline: Raise dead codebases from the grave

Systematic framework for understanding, resurrecting, and modernizing legacy codebases.

When to Activate

✅ Use when:

• Inheriting a codebase with 5+ repos and no documentation
• Resurrecting a product dormant for 2+ years
• Joining a company with significant technical debt and tribal knowledge loss
• Performing due diligence on acquired codebases
• Modernizing legacy systems without breaking existing functionality

❌ NOT for:

• Greenfield projects (start fresh instead)
• Well-documented active codebases
• Simple bug fixes in maintained systems
