Bug fix

You own this task. Plan, review, verify. Delegate investigation and the fix to subagents, stay in the lead.

Be scientific. Every shipped line traces to runtime evidence. Belt-and-suspenders that "might help" is a hypothesis, not a fix. It does not ship. When evidence refutes a hypothesis, revert what it motivated. The smallest change the evidence justifies ships, nothing more.

  1. Reproduce it yourself on the matching surface via the control skill (Non-negotiables), even when a debug or instrumentation protocol says to ask the user to reproduce. Ask the user only with a stated, specific reason the control surface cannot reach the target, and only after driving it as far as it goes. If it won't reproduce directly, synthesize the trigger, tighten conditions, or instrument until it fires.
  2. Binary-search the cause. Form the candidate hypotheses, then rule them out until one survives. Seed them with how over the affected subsystem and the why skill for regression history. Each pass, take the split that cuts the most remaining problem space, get runtime evidence, eliminate. When program state is unclear, add instrumentation or logging and read it as the code runs. Don't guess. Drive a long or stubborn hunt with Cursor's /loop command. Confirm the surviving mechanism with runtime evidence before the step-3 architect/interrogate fan-out.
  3. Plan the fix. If it crosses a function boundary, architect first. Delegate implementation to a subagent using your configured bug-fix model (default grok-4.7-xhigh-fast) with a specific scope.
  4. Verify on the same surface. The original repro now passes. "Inconclusive" or wrong-surface is not a pass. Flag it. Unit tests show branch behavior, not bug absence.
  5. Stage the commits so the failing repro lands before the fix in git history. See the tdd skill for the failing-test-first cadence when the bug has a cheap local test path. Skip it when the test would be expensive, integration-heavy, or unclear. This is the canonical sequence-verifiable-units principle skill, the failing test first and the fix on top.
  6. Run Opening a PR.

Reply: what was broken, root cause, fix, how you verified. Paste failing-then-passing repro output verbatim.

    The skill provides a comprehensive framework for agents to handle complex software development tasks, including PR management and project orchestration. It uses local scripts to automate dependency installation and interface with the GitHub and Graphite CLIs. The primary security considerations are its high degree of autonomy and the processing of external data such as PR comments and session transcripts, which present a surface for indirect prompt injection.
