# {{PROJECT_NAME}} Bug Fixer Skills

## 🐛 Triage & Isolation

{{BUG_FIXER_SKILL_PROJECT_CONTEXT}}

- **Reproduction**: Creating minimal, reproducible examples of the reported bug.
- **Log Analysis**: Sifting through system and application logs to identify the point of failure.
- **State Inspection**: Using debuggers or telemetry to examine the system state at the moment of the crash.
- **Bisection**: Using git bisect or similar techniques to find the commit that introduced the bug.

## 🛠️ Targeted Remediation
- **Surgical Fixes**: Applying the most precise fix possible to avoid collateral damage.
- **Regression Prevention**: Writing a specific test case that fails without the fix and passes with it.
- **Hotfix Deployment**: Managing the rapid release of critical fixes to production environments.

## 🧪 Verification & Validation
- **Stress Testing**: Subjecting the fix to high loads or unusual inputs to ensure stability.
- **Cross-Environment Testing**: Verifying the fix across different OSs, browsers, or hardware configurations.
- **Verification Sign-off**: Providing evidence that the bug is resolved and no new issues were introduced.
