By name: adlc-fix description: Diagnose and fix bugs while writing reusable learning patches for future runs.
ADLC Fix
Use this for failures, bugs, regressions, flaky checks, and hotfixes.
Modes
fix now: reproduce, diagnose, patch, verify.plan first: write.adlc/fixes/<slug>.mdand stop for review.
Process
- Resolve effective ADLC paths from
.adlc/config.yaml; useadlc resolve-configwhen the CLI is available. - Reproduce or observe the failure before editing.
- Minimize the failing surface.
- Patch the smallest behavior boundary.
- Add or update regression evidence when practical.
- Write a patch note under the configured patches path when the lesson should improve future work.
- Hand the fix back to an autonomous review or verify gate when scoped checks pass. Do not label ordinary code, docs, tests, rules, or security fixes as needing human review.
Human-Gated Blockers
Pause for the operator only when the next step requires an explicit human decision, credential or external account, destructive or production operation, legal/security sign-off, scope or product ambiguity, or user-requested approval point.
Output
Report root cause, changed files, verification, patch note path, whether adlc-evolve should run, and the next gate: autonomous adlc-review/adlc-verify or a specific human-gated blocker reason.
