Migrates Neo4j driver code and Cypher queries from older versions (4.x, 5.x).
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
## When to Use - Upgrading driver dependency from 4.x or 5.x to 6.x - Migrating Cypher queries to Cypher 25 syntax - Fixing deprecated API warnings after a driver or Neo4j version bump - Auditing a codebase for removed/deprecated Neo4j APIs before upgrading ## When NOT to Use - **Writing new Cypher queries** → `neo4j-cypher-skill` - **DB admin** (backup, restore, import, cypher-shell) → `neo4j-cli-tools-skill` - **Starting fresh** → `neo4j-getting-started-skill` - **GDS algorithm migration** — not covered here; consult GDS release notes --- ## Entry Criteria Before starting, ask: 1. **Target Neo4j version** — needed to select Cypher dialect and driver version 2. **Languages in use** — scan `package.json`, `requirements.txt`, `pom.xml`, `*.csproj`, `go.mod` 3. **Current driver versions** — read from dependency files; do NOT guess If target is >= 2025.06: ask whether Cypher 5 or Cypher 25 dialect will be used (both supported; Cypher 25 is the new default). --- ## Step 1 — Scan Codebase ```bash # Find Cypher strings (queries embedded in source) grep -rn "MATCH\|MERGE\|CREATE\|CALL\|RETURN" --include="*.py" --include="*.js" \ …

How to install
mdr add neo4j-contrib/neo4j-skills/neo4j-migration-skill@sha256:0cc3cf565ac3524aThe line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.13, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
