What Fix Root does
description: "Root cause diagnosis. Find the real problem, not just the symptom. Patch narrowly but safely. Add regression protection."
/fix-root — Root Cause Fix Mode
Find the root cause. Do not patch symptoms.
Protocol
**Reproduce** — Understand and confirm the failure. Trace the execution path.
**Diagnose** — Identify the root cause, not just the trigger. Distinguish between:
- The symptom (what the user sees)
- The trigger (what changed or what input causes it)
Alternatives in Development
- Root Cause Tracing — Use when errors occur deep in execution and you need to trace back to find the original trigger 102.5k ★
- Engage.Crash — Crash → root cause → reachability → empirical exploitability verdict (native bugs) 348 ★
- Cloud Run Debug — Diagnose a failing Cloud Run service — Antigravity (agy/Gemini) digests the error logs cheaply, Claude infers 284 ★
