bisect
Skill6 starsChanged 3 months agoMITView on GitHub
Pinpoint the first bad commit for a reproducible regression in a safe temporary worktree. Use when HEAD is bad, a known revision is good, and one unattended command distinguishes them; handles flaky endpoints and git-bisect skip exit 125.

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.

Bisect
1. Freeze the criterion
Confirm the bad endpoint fails and name a good commit or tag. One unattended
command decides: exit 0 means good, 1–124 means bad, and 125 means
untestable. A missing executable is an infrastructure error.
2. Run in a throwaway worktree
node <this-skill-dir>/scripts/safe-bisect.cjs --good <good-rev> --bad <bad-rev> -- <verify-command> [args...]The helper repeats each endpoint twice, uses a detached temporary worktree,
cleans state, resets bisect, and removes the worktree on every exit path. Use
--retries N only for endpoint samples. Make the reproduction deterministic
first through /debug.
3. Interpret narrowly
Report the first bad commit, not automatically the root cause. Read its diff and
relevant callers; feed /debug, keep the regression test, and run the full
verification tier after fixing.

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.
