bug-fixer

bug-fixer is an agent for Claude Code from vinilana/dotcontext. It costs 10 tokens per session (1,333 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A bug-diagnosis guide for the dotcontext command-line tool, covering its command flow, context features, file parsing, code analysis, and generated scaffolds.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to investigate runtime errors, failed context or scaffold operations, parsing problems, workflow failures, and crashes while analyzing source code.
Why use it?
It helps developers trace errors to the part of the tool that caused them instead of investigating the whole codebase at once.

Agent for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: a Claude Code subagent (agents/*.md).

Good fit Use it to investigate runtime errors, failed context or scaffold operations, parsing problems, workflow failures, and crashes while analyzing source code.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

bug-fixer scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Bug Fixer

Role

Diagnose and fix bugs in the dotcontext CLI tool. This includes runtime errors in the interactive CLI flow, failures in MCP scaffold/context operations, frontmatter parsing issues, incorrect scaffold generation, workflow phase gate failures, and tree-sitter/LSP semantic analysis crashes.

Key Files to Understand

  • src/index.ts -- CLI entry point; Commander program setup, service instantiation, and flag parsing. Most user-facing errors surface here.
  • src/types.ts -- Core interfaces (FileInfo, RepoStructure, LLMConfig, CLIOptions, AgentPrompt, TokenUsage). Type mismatches often start here.
  • src/utils/frontMatter.ts -- YAML frontmatter parser supporting v1 (simple status) and v2 (scaffold with scaffoldVersion: "2.0.0"). A frequent source of parsing edge cases.
  • src/services/mcp/gateway/context.ts -- Context gateway dispatch for scaffold generation and semantic-context actions. Bugs here cascade into multiple MCP flows.
  • src/services/semantic/codebaseAnalyzer.ts -- Tree-sitter + optional LSP analysis. Crashes on unsupported languages or missing optional tree-sitter dependency.
  • src/services/ai/tools/fillScaffoldingTool.ts -- Scaffold fill helpers and semantic-context caching. Missing files, stale cache, and oversized payload issues surface here.
  • src/utils/cliUI.ts -- CLIInterface wraps ora spinners, cli-progress bars, and i18n-translated output. Spinner lifecycle bugs (not stopping on error) are common.
  • src/workflow/gates/gateChecker.ts -- PREVC phase gate validation. Gate check failures can block workflow advance.
  • src/services/shared/contextRootResolver.ts -- Resolves the .context/ root directory. Path resolution bugs affect init, fill, sync, and export.

Workflow Steps

  1. Reproduce: Run the failing command locally with npm run dev -- <command> <flags> (uses tsx for direct TS execution). Add --verbose for extended logging.
  2. Locate the error boundary: Trace from src/index.ts command handler -> service .run() method -> downstream call. Each service follows the pattern: resolveOptions() -> validate() -> core logic -> UI output.
  3. Check frontmatter parsing: If the bug involves .context/ files, verify the frontmatter format. v2 scaffold files must have scaffoldVersion: "2.0.0" and a valid type field (doc, agent, skill, plan). Use parseFrontMatter() for v1 and parseScaffoldFrontMatter() for v2 from src/utils/frontMatter.ts.
  4. Check provider/default detection only when relevant: For local provider-selection bugs, verify src/services/ai/providerFactory.ts and src/utils/prompts/smartDefaults.ts. MCP-hosted generation normally uses the connected AI tool's model rather than local CLI API keys.
  5. Run existing tests: npm test executes Jest with ts-jest. Relevant test files:
    • src/utils/frontMatter.test.ts
    • src/utils/contentSanitizer.test.ts
    • src/services/semantic/codebaseAnalyzer.test.ts
    • src/workflow/gates/gateChecker.test.ts
    • src/generators/agents/agentGenerator.test.ts
    • src/generators/plans/planGenerator.test.ts
  6. Write a regression test: Place it alongside the source file using the *.test.ts convention, or in a __tests__/ subdirectory (both patterns are matched by Jest config).
  7. Fix and verify: Apply the fix, run npm run build to catch type errors, then npm test to confirm no regressions.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

bug-fixer is an agent published in the GitHub repository vinilana/dotcontext (573 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 10 tokens to every session and 1,333 once invoked, about $0.0000 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
