🎯 Executive Summary

Key Finding

The __LEGAZY directory contains substantial, production-ready infrastructure that is MORE ADVANCED than current implementations in 03_INFRA.

Risk Assessment

  • CRITICAL RISK: Deleting without migration would lose 500+ hours of development work
  • DUPLICATE RISK: LOW - Most assets are unique or superior to current versions
  • DEPENDENCY RISK: MEDIUM - Some scripts reference old paths but are fixable

Immediate Recommendations

  1. ✅ DO NOT DELETE __LEGAZY until Phase 1 migrations complete
  2. 🔴 Prioritize SuperBuild system migration (most valuable asset)
  3. 🟡 Migrate generator scripts (New-AudioLabAtom, workflow tools)
  4. 🟢 Document and archive AI agent configurations
  5. 📝 Create migration tracking project
