Abstract

The field of bioinformatics struggles with legacy code - old code that is commonly used but may no longer have a maintainer, or may be written in an now-unfamiliar language (e.g. Perl, Fortran). This incurs maintenance cost (technical debt), but dynamically typed languages also negatively impacts the environment and fail to make use of modern hardware. Legacy code may also have security or safety problems that make it unsuited for use in clinical settings. Here we show that agentic AI, combined
