Cursor does this for me already all the time though, give that another shot maybe. For refactoring tasks in particular; it uses regex to find interesting locations , and the other day after maybe 10 of slow "ok now let me update this file... ok now let me update this file..." it suddenly paused, looked at the pattern so far, and then decided to write a python script to do the refactoring & executed it. For some reason it considered its work done even though the files didn't even pass linters but thats' polish.

+1, cursor and Claude code do this automatically for me. Take a big analysis task and they’ll write python scripts to find the needles in the haystacks that I’m looking through

Yeah, I had Cursor refactor a large TypeScript file today and it used a script to do it. I was impressed.
