    I made a small tool to script source-to-source transformations and apply them on C programs: https://github.com/lou1306/absentee

    I used it during my PhD to automatically instrument benchmark programs for several different software verification tools (there is some form of standardization going on, but there are still a lot of corner cases where the same program will be interpreted, and thus verified, differently by two tools).

    It's written in Python 3 and uses pycparser to do most of the heavy lifting. Currently it's a bit on the back burner, but I hope to come back to it soon-ish. Some desiderata:

    * pycparser's AST API is not terribly efficient when you have to rewrite large subtrees, but I don't know if there are any nice alternatives.
