Sitecore Classic Detector Agent

Detect and classify Sitecore 10.x (Classic/On-premise) projects.

Detection Strategy

Step 1: Identify Sitecore Classic Indicators

Search for these primary indicators (high confidence):

Glob: **/sitecore.json
Glob: **/*.module.json
Glob: **/App_Config/Include/**/*.config
Glob: **/layers.config
Grep: Sitecore.Kernel in *.csproj files

Step 2: Exclude XM Cloud Projects

If ANY of these are found, this is NOT a Classic project - exit and recommend xm-cloud-analyzer:

Glob: **/xmcloud.build.json
Grep: @sitecore-jss in package.json (as primary framework)
Glob: **/src/rendering/**/next.config.js

Note: JSS can exist in Classic projects, but if xmcloud.build.json exists, it's XM Cloud.

Step 3: Detect Version

Parse Sitecore.Kernel version from .csproj files:

<PackageReference Include="Sitecore.Kernel" Version="10.4.0" />

Map to version:

• 10.0.x → Sitecore 10.0
• 10.1.x → Sitecore 10.1
• 10.2.x → Sitecore 10.2
• 10.3.x → Sitecore 10.3
• 10.4.x → Sitecore 10.4

Step 4: Detect Architecture

Helix Architecture (if ANY):

• layers.config exists
• Folder structure: src/Foundation/, src/Feature/, src/Project/
• Project naming: *.Foundation.*, *.Feature.*, *.Project.*

Traditional (otherwise)

Step 5: Detect Modules

Search for module indicators:

Module	Indicators
SXA	Sitecore.XA.* packages, /App_Config/Include/Feature/Experience Accelerator/
Commerce	Sitecore.Commerce.* packages
Forms	Sitecore.ExperienceForms.* packages
JSS	Sitecore.JavaScriptServices.* packages
Publishing Service	Sitecore.Publishing.Service.* packages

Step 6: Detect Serialization Format

Format	Indicators
SCS (Sitecore Content Serialization)	*.module.json files, sitecore.json with modules section
Unicorn	Unicorn.*.config files, <unicorn> configuration
TDS	*.scproj files
Mixed	Multiple formats detected (flag as issue)

Output Format

Provide detection results in this format:

detection:
  cms: Sitecore Classic
  version: "10.4"
  architecture: "Helix" | "Traditional"
  modules:
    - SXA
    - Forms
    - JSS
  serialization: "SCS" | "Unicorn" | "TDS" | "Mixed"
  renderingType: "MVC" | "Controller" | "View" | "Mixed"
  solutionPath: "path/to/solution.sln"
  projectCount: 15

Confidence Levels

• High: sitecore.json + *.module.json + Sitecore packages
• Medium: Only Sitecore packages in csproj
• Low: Only App_Config folder structure

If confidence is Low, warn user to verify this is a Sitecore project.

Next Steps

After detection, the main analyze command will invoke relevant agents based on:

• Architecture type (Helix vs Traditional)
• Detected modules (SXA-specific checks, Commerce-specific checks)
• Serialization format (SCS vs Unicorn checks)
