## Pre-Migration Checklist

### System Requirements for Batch Operations

✅ **Hardware Requirements:**

- Minimum 8GB RAM (16GB recommended for large projects)
- Multi-core processor (4+ cores recommended)
- SSD storage for optimal file I/O

✅ **Software Requirements:**

```bash
# Check Node.js version (v16+ required)
node --version

# Install or update claude-flow
npm install -g claude-flow@latest

# Install batchtools (if using external orchestration)
npm install -g batchtool

# Verify installation
npx claude-flow --version
```

### Compatibility Checks

```bash
# Check SPARC configuration
npx claude-flow sparc modes

# Verify memory system
npx claude-flow memory stats

# Test batch capabilities
npx claude-flow sparc run code "test batch operations" --non-interactive
```

### Backup Procedures

```bash
# 1. Backup current SPARC configurations
cp -r .claude .claude.backup-$(date +%Y%m%d)
cp -r .roo .roo.backup-$(date +%Y%m%d)
cp .roomodes .roomodes.backup-$(date +%Y%m%d)

# 2. Export memory state
npx claude-flow memory export pre-migration-backup.json

# 3. Git commit current state
git add -A
git commit -m "Pre-batchtools migration backup"
git tag pre-batchtools-migration
```

### Risk Assessment

**Low Risk:**

- Read-only operations (architect, spec-pseudocode)
- Documentation generation
- Analysis tasks

**Medium Risk:**

- Code generation tasks
- Test creation
- Integration operations

**High Risk:**

- Production deployments
- Database migrations
- Security-critical operations

**Mitigation Strategies:**

1. Start with low-risk operations
2. Maintain rollback procedures
3. Run parallel old/new systems initially
4. Comprehensive testing before full cutover

## Mode-by-Mode Migration Guide

### 🏗️ Architect Mode Migration

**Key Changes:**

- Parallel analysis of multiple components
- Concurrent diagram generation
- Batch file creation for documentation

**Before (Sequential):**

```bash
# Old approach - sequential operations
npx claude-flow sparc run architect "design user service"
# Wait...
npx claude-flow sparc run architect "design auth service"
# Wait...
npx claude-flow sparc run architect "design API gateway"
```

**After (Parallel):**

```bash
# New approach - parallel architecture design
npx claude-flow sparc run architect "design complete microservices architecture with user, auth, and gateway services"

# The optimized prompt will:
# 1. Analyze all services concurrently
# 2. Generate diagrams in parallel
# 3. Create documentation simultaneously
```

**Migration Steps:**

1. Update architect prompt to include batchtools sections
2. Modify workflows to leverage parallel analysis
3. Update documentation templates for batch generation
4. Test with sample architecture tasks

**Common Issues and Solutions:**

- **Issue**: Memory constraints with large architectures
  - **Solution**: Increase Node.js memory limit: `NODE_OPTIONS="--max-old-space-size=4096"`
- **Issue**: File conflicts in parallel writes
  - **Solution**: Use unique namespaces and atomic file operations

### 🧪 TDD Mode Migration

**Key Changes:**

- Parallel test suite creation
- Concurrent test execution
- Batch coverage analysis

**Before (Sequential):**

```javascript
// Old TDD cycle
// 1. Write one test
// 2. Run test (fails)
// 3. Implement code
// 4. Run test (passes)
// 5. Repeat for each function
```

**After (Parallel):**

```javascript
// New TDD cycle with batchtools
// 1. Generate all tests for a feature simultaneously
await batchtools.createFiles([
  { path: '/tests/unit/auth.test.ts', content: authTests },
  { path: '/tests/integration/auth.test.ts', content: integrationTests },
  { path: '/tests/e2e/auth.test.ts', content: e2eTests },
]);

// 2. Run all test types in parallel
const results = await batchtools.parallel([runUnitTests(), runIntegrationTests(), runE2ETests()]);

// 3. Implement all functions concurrently
// 4. Validate in parallel
```

**Migration Steps:**

1. Update TDD workflows to use batch test creation
2. Configure parallel test execution
3. Implement concurrent coverage reporting
4. Update CI/CD for parallel testing

**Common Issues and Solutions:**

- **Issue**: Test database conflicts in parallel execution
  - **Solution**: Use separate test databases or transactions
- **Issue**: Port conflicts for integration tests
  - **Solution**: Dynamic port allocation or test isolation

### 🧠 Code Mode Migration

**Key Changes:**

- Parallel file generation
- Concurrent module development
- Batch refactoring operations

**Before (Sequential):**

```bash
# Generate each file one by one
npx claude-flow sparc run code "create user controller"
npx claude-flow sparc run code "create user service"
npx claude-flow sparc run code "create user repository"
```

**After (Parallel):**

```bash
# Generate entire feature in one command
npx claude-flow sparc run code "implement complete user management with controller, service, repository, and tests"

# Batchtools will create all files simultaneously:
# - /src/controllers/user.controller.ts
# - /src/services/user.service.ts
# - /src/repositories/user.repository.ts
# - /src/models/user.model.ts
# - /tests/user.test.ts
```

**Migration Steps:**

1. Update code generation templates for batch operations
2. Implement parallel file creation logic
3. Configure dependency resolution for concurrent generation
4. Test with various code patterns

### 🔍 Debug Mode Migration

**Key Changes:**

- Parallel log analysis
- Concurrent debugging across services
- Batch error pattern detection

**Migration Example:**

```javascript
// Old: Sequential debugging
debugService('auth');
debugService('user');
debugService('api');

// New: Parallel debugging
await batchtools.parallel([debugService('auth'), debugService('user'), debugService('api')]);
```

### 📝 Docs-Writer Mode Migration

**Key Changes:**

- Concurrent documentation generation
- Parallel API documentation creation
- Batch README updates

**Migration Example:**

```javascript
// Generate all documentation simultaneously
await batchtools.createFiles([
  { path: '/docs/API.md', content: apiDocs },
  { path: '/docs/ARCHITECTURE.md', content: archDocs },
  { path: '/docs/DEPLOYMENT.md', content: deployDocs },
  { path: '/README.md', content: readmeContent },
]);
```

// convert-to-batch.js
const fs = require('fs').promises;
const path = require('path');

async function convertWorkflowToBatch(workflowPath) {
  const workflow = JSON.parse(await fs.readFile(workflowPath, 'utf8'));

  // Convert sequential tasks to parallel where possible
  if (workflow.tasks && Array.isArray(workflow.tasks)) {
    const parallelizableTasks = identifyParallelizableTasks(workflow.tasks);

    workflow.batchTasks = parallelizableTasks.map((group) => ({
      parallel: true,
      tasks: group,
    }));
  }

  // Save converted workflow
  const newPath = workflowPath.replace('.json', '.batch.json');
  await fs.writeFile(newPath, JSON.stringify(workflow, null, 2));

  console.log(`✅ Converted: ${path.basename(newPath)}`);
}

function identifyParallelizableTasks(tasks) {
  // Group tasks that can run in parallel
  const groups = [];
  let currentGroup = [];

  tasks.forEach((task) => {
    if (canRunInParallel(task, currentGroup)) {
      currentGroup.push(task);
    } else {
      if (currentGroup.length > 0) {
        groups.push(currentGroup);
      }
      currentGroup = [task];
    }
  });

  if (currentGroup.length > 0) {
    groups.push(currentGroup);
  }

  return groups;
}

function canRunInParallel(task, group) {
  // Logic to determine if task can run in parallel with group
  // Check for dependencies, resource conflicts, etc.
  return !task.dependencies || task.dependencies.length === 0;
}

// Run conversion
convertWorkflowToBatch(process.argv[2]);
```

## Post-Migration Validation

### How to Verify Successful Migration

**1. Functionality Tests:**

```bash
# Test each mode with batch operations
npx claude-flow sparc run architect "test batch architecture" --non-interactive
npx claude-flow sparc run tdd "test parallel testing" --non-interactive
npx claude-flow sparc run code "test concurrent generation" --non-interactive
```

**2. Performance Tests:**

```bash
# Benchmark old vs new
echo "Testing old method..."
time npx claude-flow sparc run code "create user CRUD" --legacy

echo "Testing new method..."
time npx claude-flow sparc run code "create user CRUD" --non-interactive
```

**3. Integration Tests:**

```bash
# Test full workflow
npx claude-flow sparc tdd "implement complete feature with batchtools"
```

### Performance Testing Procedures

**Benchmark Script:**

```javascript
// benchmark-batchtools.js
const { execSync } = require('child_process');

const tests = [
  {
    name: 'CRUD Generation',
    old: 'npx claude-flow sparc run code "create user CRUD" --legacy',
    new: 'npx claude-flow sparc run code "create user CRUD with all operations"',
  },
  {
    name: 'Test Suite Creation',
    old: 'npx claude-flow sparc run tdd "create auth tests" --legacy',
    new: 'npx claude-flow sparc run tdd "create complete auth test suite"',
  },
  {
    name: 'Architecture Design',
    old: 'npx claude-flow sparc run architect "design microservices" --legacy',
    new: 'npx claude-flow sparc run architect "design complete microservices architecture"',
  },
];

tests.forEach((test) => {
  console.log(`\n📊 Benchmarking: ${test.name}`);

  // Old method
  console.time('Old Method');
  execSync(test.old, { stdio: 'ignore' });
  console.timeEnd('Old Method');

  // New method
  console.time('New Method');
  execSync(test.new, { stdio: 'ignore' });
  console.timeEnd('New Method');
});
```

### Troubleshooting Guide

**Common Issues:**

**1. "Cannot find batchtools" Error**

```bash
# Solution: Ensure batchtools is in the optimized prompts
grep -l "batchtools" .claude/commands/sparc/*.md
```

**2. Parallel Execution Failures**

```bash
# Check system resources
free -h
top -b -n 1 | head -10

# Increase memory limit
export NODE_OPTIONS="--max-old-space-size=8192"
```

**3. File Conflicts**

```bash
# Use atomic operations and unique paths
# Add timestamp to filenames if needed
```

**4. Test Failures in Parallel Mode**

```bash
# Isolate test environments
# Use separate databases/ports
# Implement proper test cleanup
```
