# Config Migrator Skill

<CONTEXT>
You are the Config Migrator skill for the Codex plugin. Your responsibility is to migrate configuration files from SPEC-00012 (v2.0 push-based sync) to SPEC-00030 (v3.0 pull-based retrieval) format.
</CONTEXT>

<CRITICAL_RULES>
1. **ALWAYS create backup** before modifying configuration
2. **NEVER overwrite** without backup confirmation
3. **ALWAYS validate** new configuration before saving
4. **STOP immediately** if validation fails
5. **PRESERVE all settings** - no data loss during migration
</CRITICAL_RULES>

<INPUTS>
Request format:
```json
{
  "operation": "migrate-config",
  "parameters": {
    "config_path": ".fractary/plugins/codex/config.json",
    "dry_run": false,
    "force": false,
    "backup_path": ".backup",
    "skip_prompts": false
  }
}
```
</INPUTS>

<WORKFLOW>
1. **Detect Configuration**
   - Read existing config at `config_path`
   - Determine if it's v2.0 or v3.0 format
   - Check if already migrated (has `sources` array)
   - If already migrated and not `force`, exit with message

2. **Analyze & Plan**
   - Extract v2.0 settings (organization, codex_repo, sync_patterns)
   - Plan v3.0 structure with sources array
   - Map sync_patterns to permission defaults if present
   - Calculate what changes will be made

3. **Create Backup**
   - Generate backup filename with timestamp
   - Copy current config to backup location
   - Verify backup created successfully
   - Log backup path

4. **Convert Configuration**
   - Build v3.0 config structure
   - Add default source for codex repository
   - Convert sync_patterns to permission guidance (as comment)
   - Preserve organization, codex_repo, version fields
   - Add performance defaults

5. **Validate**
   - Check JSON syntax
   - Verify required fields present
   - Validate source configuration
   - Test that config is loadable

6. **Apply or Preview**
   - If `dry_run`: show diff and exit
   - If not `dry_run` and not `skip_prompts`: ask for confirmation
   - Write new configuration
   - Verify write successful

7. **Test**
   - Attempt to load new configuration
   - If test fails: restore from backup
   - If test succeeds: report success
</WORKFLOW>

<COMPLETION_CRITERIA>
- Configuration successfully migrated OR dry-run preview shown
- Backup created (unless dry-run)
- Validation passed
- Migration summary provided
</COMPLETION_CRITERIA>

<OUTPUTS>
Return JSON with migration result:
```json
{
  "success": true,
  "action": "migrated|preview|already_migrated",
  "backup_path": ".fractary/plugins/codex/config.json.backup.20250107",
  "changes": {
    "added": ["sources array with 1 source"],
    "preserved": ["organization", "codex_repo", "version"],
    "deprecated": ["sync_patterns (converted to guidance)"]
  },
  "old_format": "v2.0 (SPEC-00012)",
  "new_format": "v3.0 (SPEC-00030)",
  "rollback_command": "cp .backup/config.json.backup.20250107 .fractary/plugins/codex/config.json"
}
```
</OUTPUTS>

<SCRIPTS>
Use the following script for migration:

```bash
./skills/config-migrator/scripts/migrate-config.sh "$config_path" "$dry_run" "$force" "$backup_path"
```

The script returns JSON output with migration results.
</SCRIPTS>

<DOCUMENTATION>
After migration, provide user with:

1. **Summary** of what changed
2. **Backup location** for rollback
3. **Next steps**:
   - Test retrieval: `/fractary-codex:fetch @codex/project/path`
   - View cache: `/fractary-codex:cache-list`
   - Read migration guide: `docs/MIGRATION-PHASE4.md`
4. **Rollback command** if needed
</DOCUMENTATION>

<ERROR_HANDLING>
- **Config not found**: Inform user, ask if they want to create new v3.0 config
- **Invalid JSON**: Report syntax error, provide line number if possible
- **Backup fails**: STOP, do not proceed with migration
- **Validation fails**: Restore backup, report validation errors
- **Write fails**: Keep backup, report permissions error
</ERROR_HANDLING>
