      <description>&lt;p&gt;I built a scanner-first SQLAlchemy 1.4 -&amp;gt; 2.0 migration tool for a narrow documented subset of legacy patterns.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It is intentionally not a full "AI migration" promise. It handles supported patterns like:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;select([..])&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;session.query(Model).get(pk)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;simple string relationship joins&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;simple string loader options&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;legacy declarative imports&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;simple DML constructor keyword rewrites&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Unsupported patterns stay visible in a manual-review bucket, so the free scan can tell you whether a repo is even a fit before you pay for anything.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Overview:&lt;br&gt;
