fix

Standalone Codex

Skip Claude's !command interpolation below. Run git branch --show-current, git log --oneline -5, and git status --porcelain explicitly. Create each new agent with spawn_agent, continue a live agent with send_message, trigger another turn for an idle existing agent with followup_task, wait with wait_agent, and stop a current turn with interrupt_agent only when necessary. Never spawn codex-verifier and never run codex-run.ts from inside Codex.

Writers share the working tree unless the live host explicitly offers isolation. Give every writer non-overlapping ownership and serialize the test-writer, implementer, and verification writer phases. Only read-only reviewers may overlap. Wait until the explorer finishes before starting a test writer; wait until that writer finishes before implementation. Codex implementers are not promised Claude worktree isolation.

Use Context7 only when the user configured it. Otherwise use official library docs through native browsing or inspect the pinned local package and state the fallback. This package does not auto-run unpinned registry MCP packages.

You are in Maestro orchestration mode. Delegate immediately to specialized agents.

Current State

• Branch: !git branch --show-current 2>/dev/null || echo "unknown"
• Recent commits: !git log --oneline -5 2>/dev/null || echo "no commits"
• Uncommitted changes: !git status --porcelain 2>/dev/null | head -10

Workflow

1. Explore - Spawn explore agent to understand the affected codebase area
2. Reproduce - Spawn tester agent to create a failing test if possible
3. Diagnose - Analyze findings to identify root cause. Commits named in the bug report are hypotheses, not conclusions — blame the actually-affected file's history before fixing; regressions often ride in earlier on the same branch as the change that got blamed
4. Implement - Spawn implementer agent to fix the issue
5. Verify - Spawn tester agent to confirm the fix
6. Learn - If this was a non-obvious fix, the auto-memory system in ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md captures it; for team-wide gotchas use /share-learning to post to the team-knowledge repo

Scope Rules

Follow CLAUDE.md Guardrails (scope constraint, 2-iteration limit). Only modify files directly related to the bug.

Build after every fix: Run the build after each individual fix attempt. Never stack multiple untested fixes -- verify green before moving on. If the build breaks, fix that before continuing.

Autonomous fix-verify loop: once the reproducer exists, set /goal the reproducer test passes and the full suite is green, or stop after 5 attempts to keep iterating without re-prompting. Keep the 2-iteration scope rule in mind when choosing the stop clause.

Agent Delegation

Spawn explore and tester first — these accept thin prompts because they discover what they need from the codebase:

Agent(explore, "Investigate the bug: $ARGUMENTS. Find relevant files, trace the issue.")
Agent(tester, "Create a failing test that reproduces: $ARGUMENTS")

Claude: then assemble the implementer prompt from the actual outputs. The Claude implementer runs in an isolated worktree with no access to prior agent results, so paste real content — not placeholders, not references:

• The user's original ask ($ARGUMENTS) verbatim
• The exact file paths + line ranges explore reported (copy them in)
• The recommended fix explore identified, quoted line-by-line — not "based on findings"
• The build/test command the tester wrote (or repro steps)
• Scope: "only the files listed above; do not refactor adjacent code"

Now spawn:

Agent(implementer, "<the assembled briefing above — all five items inline>")
Agent(reviewer, "Quick review of the fix for quality and edge cases")

Standalone Codex branch: follow the lifecycle and serialization rules at the top. After implementation and verification finish, a fresh read-only reviewer supplies the independent pass. Skip the Claude bridge branch below.

Any fix that produced a diff gets a cross-model review in parallel with the reviewer, when the Codex bridge is available — a non-Claude family is the cheapest insurance against a logic error you just wrote:

Agent(codex-verifier, "Cross-model review of the fix diff. Focus on correctness and security. Report findings by severity.")

The bridge fails open: if Codex is unavailable, the reviewer agent alone is fine.

If the codex-verifier spawn fails, or it reports that Bash was stripped (forked skill contexts), run bun "$HOME/.claude/src/scripts/codex-run.ts" review directly instead — never skip the cross-model pass.

Skip the implementer step if explore reports the bug is non-reproducible or already fixed in current HEAD.

Output

Return a concise summary:

• Root cause: What was wrong
• Fix applied: What changed
• Files modified: List of files
• Verification: How it was tested
• Learning stored: If applicable

Remember

• If the fix involves a library API, fetch current docs first using the host-specific path above
• Always store non-obvious bug fixes as learnings
• Check if similar bugs were fixed before (recall learnings)
• Run tests after fixing

Variant: Merge Conflicts

If the failure is unresolved git merge conflicts (not a code bug), skip the explore/tester loop:

1. Detect conflicts: git diff --name-only --diff-filter=U lists conflicted paths.
2. Resolve each conflict with minimal, correctness-first edits. Prefer preserving both sides when safe; otherwise choose the variant that compiles and keeps public behavior stable.
3. Regenerate lockfiles with the package manager (bun install, npm install, etc.) rather than hand-editing.
4. Run compile, lint, and relevant tests.
5. Stage resolved files and summarize key decisions in the commit message.

Guardrails:

• Avoid broad refactors while resolving conflicts — separate PR for cleanup.

Variant: Failing PR CI

If the failure is on a pushed branch with an open PR (not a local bug), use gh pr checks as the source of truth — it covers all PR-attached checks, not just GitHub Actions:

1. Resolve the PR: gh pr view --json number,url,headRefName.
2. Inspect attached checks: gh pr checks --json name,bucket,state,workflow,link.
3. For each failed check, fetch logs:
   • GitHub Actions: gh run view RUN_ID --log-failed.
   • External services: follow the check link to the provider.
4. Extract the first actionable error. Apply the smallest safe fix.
5. Push and re-check. The check set can change between runs — re-read gh pr checks after every push.

Guardrails:

• Fix one actionable failure at a time.
• If the failure is clearly unrelated to the PR and already fixed on main, merge main into the branch instead of bloating the PR with unrelated fixes.
• For flaky checks, retry once and report flake evidence rather than chasing a phantom fix.
