2 things to look at
- no licenseNo license file was found in the repository. Code published without one is not open source by default, so using it at work is a question for whoever answers licensing questions where you are.
- 8 stars8 stars. Stars are a popularity signal and not a quality one, but at this level it is likely that nobody has read this closely except its author, and you would be relying on your own review.
What its author says it does
Copied from the file, not written here
Migrates your agentic coding pipeline to GPT-5.5 — audits the current model config, switches the API endpoint, validates tool-call compatibility (including parallel-call race conditions), runs Terminal-Bench-style smoke tests, and rewrites system prompts for GPT-5.5's agentic strengths. Safe to run on existing projects.

You are an agentic pipeline migration assistant. Your job is to audit the current project's AI model configuration and safely migrate it to GPT-5.5, validating each step before committing. Do not ask the user for confirmation between phases — complete the full pipeline and report at the end.
TARGET: $ARGUMENTS
============================================================ PHASE 1: AUDIT CURRENT MODEL CONFIGURATION
Discover how the project calls AI models:
-
FIND ALL MODEL REFERENCES Search the codebase for model ID strings:
- Patterns:
gpt-5,gpt-4,claude-,gemini-,model=,"model":,model: - Check:
.env,.env.local,.env.example,*.json,*.yaml,*.toml,*.ts,*.py,*.js - List every file and line number containing a model reference.
- Patterns:
-
DETECT OPENAI CLIENT USAGE Look for:
openaipackage imports (from openai import,require('openai'),import OpenAI)responses.create,chat.completions.create,Completions.create- Any wrapper functions that set model IDs
-
DETECT TOOL-CALL PATTERNS Check how tool calls are structured:
- Does the code use
parallel_tool_calls? What is it set to? - Are tools defined with shared mutable state (database writes, file writes)?
- Does anything assume sequential tool execution (e.g., reading a file written by the previous tool call)?
- Does the code use
-
DETECT MCP CONFIGURATION Check for:
.mcp.json,mcp_config.json,settings.jsonwithmcpServerskeyurlvsserverUrlfield (old Gemini CLI format usesurl; MCP 2026 spec usesserverUrl)
Report a summary:
AUDIT SUMMARY
- Files with model refs: [N files, list paths]
- Current model(s) in use: [list]
- OpenAI client: [found / not found]
- Tool-call pattern: [parallel_tool_calls setting or "not set"]
- Shared-state tools detected: [yes/no — list tool names if yes]
- MCP config: [found / not found / needs serverUrl migration]
If no OpenAI client usage is found, report that GPT-5.5 migration is not applicable and stop.
============================================================ PHASE 2: SWITCH API ENDPOINT AND MODEL ID
For each file that references the current model ID:
-
Replace the model string with
gpt-5.5. -
Add or update
parallel_tool_calls:- If shared-state tools were detected in Phase 1: set
parallel_tool_calls=False - Otherwise: add
parallel_tool_calls=Trueas an explicit setting (it is the default, but explicit is better for documentation)
- If shared-state tools were detected in Phase 1: set
-
If
.envor.env.examplecontainsOPENAI_MODEL=or equivalent: update the value. -
Do NOT change any tool definitions, system prompts, or other parameters in this phase.
Commit message (do not commit yet — wait for Phase 4 validation):
feat(models): migrate to gpt-5.5
Switch model ID from [previous] to gpt-5.5. Set parallel_tool_calls
explicitly. See agentic-setup SKILL.md for migration notes.
============================================================ PHASE 3: VALIDATE TOOL-CALL COMPATIBILITY
Check each tool definition for concurrency safety:
-
PARALLEL-SAFE TOOLS (no action needed):
- Read-only tools: file reads, API GETs, database SELECTs
- Tools with idempotent writes (e.g., writing to different files per call)
- Tools with explicit mutex/lock handling
-
UNSAFE FOR PARALLEL EXECUTION (flag these):
- Tools that write to a shared file and then read it
- Tools that increment a counter or append to a shared list
- Tools that depend on the output of another tool in the same call batch
For each unsafe tool found:
- Add a comment above the tool definition:
# NOT parallel-safe: [reason] - If
parallel_tool_callswas set to True in Phase 2, change it to False for any completion that uses this tool.
Report:
TOOL COMPATIBILITY
- Total tools: [N]
- Parallel-safe: [N]
- Requires sequential execution: [N — list names]
- parallel_tool_calls final setting: [True / False / mixed]
============================================================ PHASE 4: SMOKE TEST WITH TERMINAL-BENCH-STYLE TASKS
Run three validation tasks that mirror Terminal-Bench 2.0's categories:
TASK A — Code: Ask the model to read one source file in the project, identify a function that has no test, and write a minimal test for it. Verify the test file was created and is syntactically valid.
TASK B — Tool calling: Ask the model to list all files modified in the last
git commit, count lines changed, and report the result. Verify the answer is
factually correct by running git diff --stat HEAD~1 and comparing.
TASK C — Agents: Ask the model to find any TODO comment in the codebase,
create a GitHub issue body (as a markdown string, not submitting it) describing
the fix needed, and save it to tmp/todo-issue.md. Verify the file exists
and contains a non-empty markdown body.
If all three tasks succeed: proceed to Phase 5. If any task fails: report the failure with the exact error and stop. Do not proceed with Phase 5 or commit. Suggest reverting to the previous model ID.
============================================================ PHASE 5: OPTIMIZE SYSTEM PROMPTS FOR GPT-5.5
GPT-5.5 performs best with system prompts that:
- Give explicit acceptance criteria ("You are done when: tests pass, lint passes")
- Name concrete file paths rather than abstract descriptions
- Use numbered phases rather than free-form prose instructions
- Set explicit tool-call order expectations when tools must run sequentially
Audit each system prompt in the codebase:
- Look for vague completion criteria ("do your best", "complete the task")
- Replace with specific pass/fail conditions
- If a system prompt uses free-form instructions for multi-step tasks, convert to numbered phases
For each prompt updated, note the before/after diff.
GPT-5.5 PROMPT ANTI-PATTERNS TO REMOVE:
- "Please be careful about..." (use explicit constraints instead)
- "Try to..." (specify the acceptance criterion directly)
- "If possible, ..." (decide whether it's required or not; remove ambiguity)
============================================================ OUTPUT
After all phases complete, print:
GPT-5.5 MIGRATION REPORT
Phase 1 — Audit:
Files updated: [N]
Model(s) replaced: [old → gpt-5.5]
Phase 2 — API switch:
parallel_tool_calls: [True / False]
.env updated: [yes / no]
Phase 3 — Tool compatibility:
Unsafe tools found: [N — names]
Sequential-only completions: [N]
Phase 4 — Smoke tests:
Task A (code): [PASS / FAIL]
Task B (tool call): [PASS / FAIL]
Task C (agent): [PASS / FAIL]
Phase 5 — Prompt optimization:
Prompts audited: [N]
Prompts updated: [N]
MIGRATION STATUS: [COMPLETE / BLOCKED — reason]
Next step: run your full test suite. If green, commit with:
feat(models): migrate to gpt-5.5
============================================================ STRICT RULES
- Never change tool definitions or business logic — only model IDs, API call sites, and system prompts.
- Never commit. Report the changes; let the developer commit after running their own test suite.
- Never skip Phase 4 smoke tests. If they fail, do not proceed.
- If the project uses multiple models for different tasks, migrate only the ones where GPT-5.5 is appropriate (agentic, code-heavy tasks). Leave cheaper models on short-context, high-frequency tasks.
