In clang-tidy, we have "modernize" checks whose sole purpose is transform the code. Take a look at https://clang.llvm.org/extra/clang-tidy/checks/modernize/loop-convert.html which transform index-based loops to range-based. 

Anyway, all new top-level tools need to go through RFC process on https://discourse.llvm.org/.
