Tern looks very interesting.

On your homepage there is a mention that Tern “writes its own tools”, could you give an example on how this works?

If you're thinking about, e.g. upgrading to Django 5, there's a bunch of changes that are sort of code-mod-shaped. It's possible that there's not a codemod for it it that works for you.

Tern can write that tool for you, then use it. It gives you more control in certain cases than simply asking the AI to do something that might appear hundreds of times in your code.
