Overview
Grit is an AI-powered code maintenance tool that automates migrations, upgrades, and refactoring tasks, allowing developers to put their codebase on autopilot and reduce time spent on technical debt.
Key Features:
- Automated code migrations and transformations across multiple languages
- Declarative pattern language (GritQL) for custom code transformations
- Grit Agent that plans, generates, and refines code changes autonomously
- Semantic code search for finding anti-patterns
- Integrated feedback to detect regressions and enforce best practices
Use Cases:
- JavaScript to TypeScript migrations
- Framework upgrades (AngularJS to Angular, Enzyme to React Testing Library)
- Code style standardization (converting to arrow functions, functional components)
- Technical debt reduction and codebase modernization
- Dependency updates and maintenance tasks
Benefits:
- Completes migration projects 10X faster than manual approaches
- Reduces maintenance time that typically consumes 33% of developer workloads
- Integrates seamlessly with GitHub, VS Code, and command line workflows
- Provides consistent code quality through automated validation and refinement
- Allows developers to focus on new features instead of maintenance tasks
Capabilities
- Automates code migrations to modernize codebases
- Upgrades dependencies to maintain code stability and security
- Reduces technical debt through automated code quality improvements
- Integrates with development tools such as GitHub, VS Code, and command line
- Generates pull requests for code cleanup and submission
- Applies AI-powered transforms in secure sandboxes
- Detects and resolves common sources of technical debt
- Performs initial analysis to identify code for modification
- Creates detailed plans for code modification and rewrites
- Uses static analyzers and LLMs to index and structure codebases
- Generates an indexed map of dependencies, functionality, and class hierarchies
- Queries external tools and retrieves necessary documentation
- Runs validation tools from CI pipelines, including unit tests and type checkers
- Iterates on coded changes until all validation checks pass
- Submits and self-reviews pull requests before code review submissions
- Plans, tracks, and executes code migrations efficiently
- Provides semantic code search and declarative syntax for workflows
- Automatically applies pre-built migrations and detects regressions
- Employs pre-validated workflows and custom prompts
- Executes tasks autonomously and continuously in the background
- Validates and refines changes to ensure compliance and functionality
