fix
Skill4 starsChanged 3 days agoMITView on GitHub
Debug and fix bugs, errors, and failures — including merge conflicts and failing CI checks. Use for "fix", "broken", "not working", "bug", "error", "failing". Runs explore → reproduce → diagnose → implement → verify, with the 2-iteration limit and bug-fix scope confinement.

How matches are found. Word for word: the exact same text. Edited: shares passages with this file (“99% same” means 99% of its five-word phrases also appear here; 10% or more counts). Their own version: similar meaning, or, weakest, the same name. We can’t tell which project had it first. Projects are counted among the 200 most-starred candidates, and mentions are links to the repository we found, up to 50 per site, so both counts are a floor.

The file
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
1 rule. 0 are common, 1 is distinctive, and 0 are very specific to this project.
0
Common
Most of the 78 edited versions we read keep these.
1
Distinctive
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
0
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Distinctive: line 36
2-iteration limit: after 2 failed attempts, stop, summarize, present 2-3 alternatives, ask
“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 78 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Bug Fix Workflow
Bugs get fixed immediately — no "should I?" questions. But never stack untested fixes.
Hard bugs (intermittent, environment-specific, resistant to the loop below) escalate to the diagnosing-bugs skill: reproduce → minimize → hypothesize → instrument → fix → regression-test. This workflow covers standard bugs; use it unless the symptoms say otherwise.
Workflow
- Explore — spawn
exploreto map the affected area (neutral prompts: "analyze the logic and report all findings", not "find the bug") - Reproduce — get the failure on screen. Run the failing command/flow, capture the error. No repro = no diagnosis
- Diagnose — name the root cause in one sentence before touching code. Commits named in the bug report are hypotheses, not conclusions — blame the actually-affected file's history; regressions often rode in earlier on the same branch. If the sentence needs "I think"/"maybe", gather more signal (screenshots, computed styles, logs)
- Implement — spawn
implementerwith a complete briefing (verbatim ask, file paths, scope). Scope confinement: only files directly related to the bug; no adjacent refactors; no dependency upgrades - Verify — run the canonical verification chain (build → format:all:check →
phpcs → phpstan, see
docs/verification-chain.md). Build after EVERY fix attempt, confirm green before moving on - Learn — non-obvious fix? Append a dated entry to the project's AGENTS.md self-evolving learnings log
Rules
- 2-iteration limit: after 2 failed attempts, stop, summarize, present 2-3 alternatives, ask
- Regression vs contract change: a test/check failing after your change is either a regression (fix the code, never relax the check) or an intentional contract change (update implementation + assertion in the same diff, say which contract changed). When unsure, treat as regression
- Failing PR CI:
gh pr checksis the source of truth; fix one actionable failure at a time; if unrelated to the PR and already fixed on main, merge main in instead - Merge conflicts: resolve hunk by hunk by intent; regenerate lockfiles, never hand- edit; no broad refactors mid-conflict
Output
Root cause (one sentence) / fix applied / files modified / verification commands + result / learning stored (if any). Fail loud if anything was skipped or mocked.
Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.
Your trail
Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.
Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.
Now do this for your own.
Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
