Our Approach

LSP + AI: Compiler-Validated Transformations

Pure AI code generation often produces plausible-looking but broken code. We combine Language Server Protocol's semantic precision with AI's intelligent generation to deliver transformations that compile, run, and maintain behavioral equivalence.

Why Pure AI Isn't Enough

Traditional AI-Only Approach
  • Hallucinates non-existent APIs
  • Breaks type contracts silently
  • Misses transitive dependencies
  • Inconsistent naming conventions
LSP + AI Hybrid Approach
  • LSP verifies all API references exist
  • Compiler-level type checking
  • Full dependency graph awareness
  • Consistent with codebase patterns

Language Server Protocol

Compiler-Level Semantic Analysis

  • Symbol Resolution
    Precise go-to-definition across modules, including transitive dependencies
  • Call Hierarchies
    Complete incoming/outgoing call analysis for impact assessment
  • Type Information
    Compiler-level type inference, generics resolution, and variance checking
  • Diagnostics
    Real-time error detection with fix suggestions from language servers
  • Semantic Tokens
    Rich syntax understanding beyond regex-based parsing
  • Rename Refactoring
    Safe symbol renaming with cross-file reference updates

Supported Languages: Java (Eclipse JDT), TypeScript (tsserver), Python (Pylance), C# (OmniSharp), Go (gopls), Kotlin (kotlin-language-server)

AI Intelligence Layer

Context-Aware Code Generation

  • Pattern Recognition
    Identify anti-patterns, deprecated APIs, and migration opportunities
  • Idiomatic Generation
    Generate code that follows target framework conventions and best practices
  • Context Awareness
    Understand surrounding code, project structure, and team patterns
  • Intent Understanding
    Comprehend business logic to preserve behavior during transformation
  • Knowledge Retrieval
    RAG-powered access to framework docs, migration guides, and Stack Overflow
  • Multi-Model Ensemble
    Specialized models for analysis, generation, and validation tasks

RAG Sources: Official framework docs, migration guides, release notes, curated Stack Overflow, internal wiki integration

Multi-Model Orchestration

Different models excel at different tasks. We route each transformation step to the optimal model.

How It Works: Java 17 to 25 Example

1. LSP Identifies Upgrade Opportunities
// LSP: Pattern matching preview → stable in Java 21+
if (obj instanceof String) {
String s = (String) obj;
return s.length();
}
2. AI Generates Modern Equivalent
// AI: Using pattern matching (Java 21+)
if (obj instanceof String s) {
return s.length();
}
3. LSP Validates All References
LSP: Pattern variable 's' in scope ✓
LSP: Method 'length()' exists on String ✓
LSP: Return type 'int' matches ✓
LSP: No diagnostics. Transformation valid.
4. AI Generates Equivalence Test
@Test
void patternMatch_behaviorPreserved() {
Object obj = "test";
assertThat(modernMethod(obj))
.isEqualTo(legacyMethod(obj));
}
