Show HN: Python Source Code Refactoring Toolkit via AST
A similar type project. Though I haven't seen much activity recently:
https://github.com/facebookincubator/Bowler

Our Engineering Team Used Python's AST to Patch 100,000s of Lines of Code
I have done something similar using https://pybowler.io/. This library wraps the LibCST library and abstracts away some of the refactoring operations into nice wrapper functions.

Show HN: Python Source Code Refactoring Toolkit via AST
Nice, I've always thought Python could do better by adopting source transformation tools like babel. I implemented something similar using lib2to3, which preserves whitespace and comments more accurately: https://github.com/banga/prefactor
