spring-boot-migrationMigrate Spring Boot 2.x applications to Spring Boot 3.x. An agent skill from benchflow-ai/skillsbench.
Spring Boot Migration is an agent skill from benchflow-ai/skillsbench. Migrate Spring Boot 2.x applications to Spring Boot 3.x. Use when updating pom.xml versions, removing deprecated JAXB dependencies, upgrading Java to 17/21, or using OpenRewrite for automated migration. Covers dependency updates, version changes, and migration checklist.
Its SKILL.md is about 2.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Backend & APIs, covering Backend development. It works with Spring Boot and Java. The repository describes itself as: SkillsBench evaluates how well skills work and how effective agents are at using them. The licence is Apache-2.0.
4 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9a1f4dd. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
mvnFrom the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):
github.comdocs.openrewrite.orgbaeldung.comFrom URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Spring Boot Migration loads about 2.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 73 tokens; SKILL.md has 497 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

.claude/skills/spring-boot-migration/SKILL.md (or your agent's skills folder).This skill provides guidance for migrating Spring Boot applications from version 2.x to 3.x, which is one of the most significant upgrades in Spring Boot history due to the Java EE to Jakarta EE transition.
Change the parent POM version:

Migrate Spring Boot 2.x applications to Spring Boot 3.x. An agent skill from benchflow-ai/skillsbench. Spring Boot Migration is an agent skill from benchflow-ai/skillsbench.x.
Spring Boot Migration fits situations like: updating pom.xml versions; removing deprecated JAXB dependencies; upgrading Java to 17/21; using OpenRewrite for automated migration.
Run `npx skills add benchflow-ai/skillsbench --skill spring-boot-migration -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (tasks/spring-boot-jakarta-migration/environment/skills/spring-boot-migration in benchflow-ai/skillsbench) into .claude/skills/spring-boot-migration in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
Run `npx skills add benchflow-ai/skillsbench --skill spring-boot-migration -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (tasks/spring-boot-jakarta-migration/environment/skills/spring-boot-migration in benchflow-ai/skillsbench) into .agents/skills/spring-boot-migration in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add benchflow-ai/skillsbench --skill spring-boot-migration -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/spring-boot-migration, .gemini/skills/spring-boot-migration, .github/skills/spring-boot-migration and .opencode/skills/spring-boot-migration in your project.
Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Spring Boot Migration needs the command-line tools its instructions call (mvn).
SKILL.md names 3 domains. As links in the text: github.com, docs.openrewrite.org and baeldung.com. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.
Spring Boot Migration is published under the Apache-2.0 licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
About 2.2k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 8.7k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
Skills that share tags, products or a category with Spring Boot Migration: Spring Boot (piomin/claude-ai-spring-boot, 1.3k stars), Dr Jskill (jdubois/dr-jskill, 342 stars), WxJava Integration Guide (binarywang/WxJava, 33k stars) and Flycms Dev (sunkaifei/FlyCms, 656 stars). The comparison table on this page puts their stars, adoption, token cost, safety result and licence side by side.
