For large, safe monorepo refactors: use ChatGPT to design the refactor plan and generate codemods (libcst/rope/bowler) and test scripts, then run them in feature branches with CI. Use GitHub Copilot in your IDE to speed iterative, file-level edits and PR cleanup. Start on a small subset, run the full test suite, and land changes via staged PRs.
