What you'll learn
- What Is a Code Mod?. You've just inherited a codebase with a thousand files, and your team decides that every instance of getUser() should be renamed to fetchUserData().
- Claude API and Code Generation. You've just sent a request to Claude's API with a snippet of code and a description of what you want changed—maybe "rename all instances of oldFunction to newFunction across this file."
- AST Traversal and Visitor Patterns. Every piece of code you write gets converted into a tree structure with roughly 50 to 500 nodes, depending on complexity.

What is an abstract syntax tree?
An abstract syntax tree is a tree structure made from your code with roughly 50 to 500 nodes depending on complexity, which is how code mods actually read and modify your code.
How does an API help when working with code transformations?
An API is a tool that lets your program talk to Claude's language model to ask it to perform a code transformation by sending your code and instructions.
