Investigate diagnostic issues and propose fixes with human approval

Debug Review

Investigate diagnostic issues created by /debug-report, read relevant code, and propose fixes with human approval at each step.

CRITICAL: This Command Requires Human Approval

This command has THREE mandatory approval gates. You MUST stop and wait for user confirmation at each gate before proceeding.

Execution Steps

Step 1: Detect Repository

Run Bash to get the current repository:

git remote get-url origin

Parse to extract REPO_NAME in owner/repo format.

Step 2: Fetch Diagnostic Issues

mcp__plugin_projman_gitea__list_issues(
  repo=REPO_NAME,
  state="open",
  labels=["Source: Diagnostic"]
)

If no issues with that label, try without label filter and look for issues with "[Diagnostic]" in title.

Step 3: Display Issue List

Show the user available issues:

Debug Review
============

Open Diagnostic Issues:

  #80 - [Diagnostic] get_labels fails without repo parameter
        Created: 2026-01-21 | Labels: Type: Bug, Source: Diagnostic

  #77 - [Diagnostic] MCP tools require explicit repo parameter
        Created: 2026-01-21 | Labels: Type: Bug, Source: Diagnostic

No diagnostic issues? Showing recent bugs:

  #75 - [Bug] Some other issue
        Created: 2026-01-20

Step 4: User Selects Issue

Use AskUserQuestion:

Which issue would you like to investigate?
Options: [List issue numbers]

Wait for user selection.

Step 5: Fetch Full Issue Details

mcp__plugin_projman_gitea__get_issue(repo=REPO_NAME, issue_number=SELECTED)

Step 6: Parse Diagnostic Report

Extract from the issue body:

1. Failed Tools: Which MCP tools failed
2. Error Messages: Exact error text
3. Hypothesis: Reporter's analysis
4. Suggested Investigation: Files to check
5. Project Context: Repo, branch, cwd where error occurred

If the issue doesn't follow the diagnostic template, extract what information is available.

Step 7: Map Errors to Code Files

Use this mapping to identify relevant files:

By Tool Name:

Tool	Primary Files
validate_repo_org	mcp-servers/gitea/mcp_server/gitea_client.py
get_labels	mcp-servers/gitea/mcp_server/tools/labels.py
suggest_labels	mcp-servers/gitea/mcp_server/tools/labels.py
list_issues	mcp-servers/gitea/mcp_server/tools/issues.py
create_issue	mcp-servers/gitea/mcp_server/tools/issues.py
list_milestones	mcp-servers/gitea/mcp_server/gitea_client.py

By Error Pattern:

Error Contains	Check Files
"owner/repo format"	config.py, gitea_client.py
"404" + "orgs"	gitea_client.py (is_org_repo method)
"401", "403"	config.py (token loading)
"No repository"	Command .md file (repo detection step)

By Command:

Command	Documentation File
/labels-sync	plugins/projman/commands/labels-sync.md
/sprint-plan	plugins/projman/commands/sprint-plan.md
/sprint-start	plugins/projman/commands/sprint-start.md
/debug-report	plugins/projman/commands/debug-report.md

Step 8: Read Relevant Files (MANDATORY)

You MUST read the identified files before proposing any fix.

For each relevant file:

1. Read the file using the Read tool
2. Find the specific function/method mentioned in the error
3. Understand the code path that leads to the error
4. Note any related code that might be affected

Display snippets of relevant code to the user:

└──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘

Step 9: Present Investigation Summary

Summarize what you found:

Investigation Summary
=====================

ISSUE: #80 - get_labels fails without repo parameter

FAILED TOOLS:
  • get_labels - "Use 'owner/repo' format"

CODE ANALYSIS:

1. labels.py:get_labels() requires repo parameter
   - Line 30: `target_repo = repo or self.gitea.repo`
   - Line 31-32: Raises ValueError if no repo

2. labels-sync.md documents Step 1 for repo detection
   - Lines 13-26: Instructs to run `git remote get-url origin`
   - This step may not be followed by executing Claude

ROOT CAUSE HYPOTHESIS:

The command documentation (labels-sync.md) correctly instructs
repo detection, but the executing Claude may be skipping Step 1
and calling MCP tools directly.

Evidence:
  • Error indicates repo parameter was not passed
  • labels-sync.md has correct instructions
  • MCP server cannot auto-detect (sandboxed environment)

LIKELY FIX:

Option A: Make Step 1 more prominent in labels-sync.md
Option B: Add validation that repo was detected before proceeding
Option C: [Other based on analysis]

APPROVAL GATE 1

Does this analysis match your understanding of the problem?

[Y] Yes, proceed to propose fix
[N] No, let me clarify
[R] Read more files first

STOP HERE AND WAIT FOR USER RESPONSE

Do NOT proceed until user approves.

Step 9.5: Search Lessons Learned

Before proposing a fix, search for relevant lessons from past fixes.

1. Extract search tags from the issue:

SEARCH_TAGS = []
# Add tool names
for each failed_tool in issue:
  SEARCH_TAGS.append(tool_name)  # e.g., "get_labels", "validate_repo_org"

# Add error category
SEARCH_TAGS.append(error_category)  # e.g., "parameter-format", "authentication"

# Add component if identifiable
if error relates to MCP server:
  SEARCH_TAGS.append("mcp")
if error relates to command:
  SEARCH_TAGS.append("command")

2. Search lessons learned:

mcp__plugin_projman_gitea__search_lessons(
  repo=REPO_NAME,
  tags=SEARCH_TAGS,
  limit=5
)

3. Also search by error keywords:

mcp__plugin_projman_gitea__search_lessons(
  repo=REPO_NAME,
  query=[key error message words],
  limit=5
)

4. Display relevant lessons (if any):

Related Lessons Learned
=======================

Found [N] relevant lessons from past fixes:

📚 Lesson: "Sprint 14 - Parameter validation in MCP tools"
   Tags: mcp, get_labels, parameter-format
   Summary: Always validate repo parameter format before API calls
   Prevention: Add format check at function entry

📚 Lesson: "Sprint 12 - Graceful fallback for missing config"
   Tags: configuration, fallback
   Summary: Commands should work even without .env
   Prevention: Check for env vars, use sensible defaults

These lessons may inform your fix approach.

If no lessons found, display:

No related lessons found. This may be a new type of issue.

Step 10: Propose Fix Approach

Based on the analysis, propose a specific fix:

  issue_number=ISSUE_NUMBER,
  comment="Fix proposed in PR #[PR_NUMBER]\n\nChanges:\n- [summary]\n\nPlease test after merge and report back."
)

Step 14: Report Completion

Debug Review Complete
=====================

Issue: #80 - get_labels fails without repo parameter
Status: Fix Proposed

PR Created: #81 - fix: improve labels-sync repo detection instructions
URL: http://gitea.hotserv.cloud/.../pulls/81

Next Steps:
  1. Review and merge PR #81
  2. In test project, pull latest plugin version
  3. Run /debug-report to verify fix
  4. Come back and run Step 15 to close issue and capture lesson

Step 15: Verify, Close, and Capture Lesson

This step runs AFTER the user has verified the fix works.

When user returns and confirms the fix is working:

1. Close the issue:

mcp__plugin_projman_gitea__update_issue(
  repo=REPO_NAME,
  issue_number=ISSUE_NUMBER,
  state="closed"
)

2. Ask about lesson capture:

Use AskUserQuestion:

This fix addressed [ERROR_TYPE] in [COMPONENT].

Would you like to capture this as a lesson learned?

Options:
- Yes, capture lesson (helps avoid similar issues in future)
- No, skip (trivial fix or already documented)

3. If user chooses Yes, auto-generate lesson content:

LESSON_TITLE = "Sprint [N] - [Brief description of fix]"
  # Example: "Sprint 17 - MCP parameter validation"

LESSON_CONTENT = """
## Context

[What was happening when the issue occurred]
- Command/tool being used: [FAILED_TOOL]
- Error encountered: [ERROR_MESSAGE]

## Problem

[Root cause identified during investigation]

## Solution

[What was changed to fix it]
- Files modified: [LIST]
- PR: #[PR_NUMBER]

## Prevention

[How to avoid this in the future]

## Related

- Issue: #[ISSUE_NUMBER]
- PR: #[PR_NUMBER]
"""

LESSON_TAGS = [
  tool_name,        # e.g., "get_labels"
  error_category,   # e.g., "parameter-format"
  component,        # e.g., "mcp", "command"
  "bug-fix"
]

4. Show lesson preview and ask for approval:

Lesson Preview
==============

Title: [LESSON_TITLE]
Tags: [LESSON_TAGS]

Content:
[LESSON_CONTENT]

Save this lesson? (Y/N/Edit)

5. If approved, create the lesson:

mcp__plugin_projman_gitea__create_lesson(
  repo=REPO_NAME,
  title=LESSON_TITLE,
  content=LESSON_CONTENT,
  tags=LESSON_TAGS,
  category="sprints"
)

6. Report completion:

Issue Closed & Lesson Captured
==============================

Issue #[N]: CLOSED
Lesson: "[LESSON_TITLE]" saved to wiki

This lesson will be surfaced in future /debug-review
sessions when similar errors are encountered.

DO NOT

• DO NOT skip reading relevant files - this is MANDATORY
• DO NOT proceed past approval gates without user confirmation
• DO NOT guess at fixes without evidence from code
• DO NOT close issues until user confirms fix works (Step 15)
• DO NOT commit directly to development or main branches
• DO NOT skip the lessons learned search - past fixes inform better solutions

If Investigation Finds No Bug

Sometimes investigation reveals the issue is:

• User error (didn't follow documented steps)
• Configuration issue (missing .env vars)
• Already fixed in a newer version

In this case:

Investigation Summary
=====================

FINDING: This does not appear to be a code bug.

ANALYSIS:
[Explanation of what you found]

RECOMMENDATION:
[ ] Close issue as "not a bug" - user error
[ ] Close issue as "duplicate" of #[X]
[ ] Add documentation to prevent confusion
[ ] Other: [specify]

Would you like me to add a comment explaining this finding?
