It's up to you of course, but if you haven't tried any of the more recent models, I'd give it a try.

I was stuck with a slowly dying Python 2 program, which a few people had tried to update (and failed) to Python 3. I previously tried for 4 full days before I realised I was no-where close, and gave up.

I sat for an afternoon with Claude Code, and finished a full Python 3 translation.

Claude found replacement libraries for things without a Python 3 version, wrote fresh implementations of a couple of functions that didn't get a Python 3 upgrade (I checked, it didn't just copy the originals), and helped me then fix up all the unicode issues from the Python 2 -> Python 3 upgrade process.
