spec-bugfix

spec-bugfix is a command for Claude Code from Habib0x0/spec-driven-plugin. It costs 20 tokens per session (561 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command that starts a structured plan for fixing a documented software defect. A regression is an existing behavior that must keep working after the fix.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to document reproduction steps and constraints, analyze the codebase, design the fix, and create implementation tasks.
Why use it?
It records the observed and expected behavior, investigates likely causes, and plans a targeted fix with regression prevention.

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

spec-bugfix 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.

/spec-bugfix Command

Guide a bugfix through a three-phase workflow: Bug Analysis, Design, and Tasks.

Unlike feature specs which start from requirements, bugfix specs start from a documented defect and work toward a surgical fix with regression prevention.

Usage

/spec-bugfix <bug-name>

Arguments

Argument Required Description
bug-name Yes A short, kebab-case identifier for the bugfix. Used as the directory name.

Workflow

Phase 1: Bug Analysis

The agent guides the user through documenting the defect:

  1. Current Behavior (Defect) — WHEN [condition] THEN the system [incorrect behavior]
  2. Expected Behavior (Correct) — WHEN [condition] THEN the system SHALL [correct behavior]
  3. Unchanged Behavior (Regression Prevention) — WHEN [condition] THEN the system SHALL CONTINUE TO [existing behavior]
  4. Reproduction Steps — exact steps to reproduce the defect
  5. Constraints — code that must not be modified, backward-compat requirements, etc.

The agent also performs automated root cause analysis by exploring the codebase around the defect.

Output: bugfix.md

Phase 2: Design

The agent proposes a fix approach:

  • Root cause summary
  • Proposed fix with minimal blast radius
  • Test properties to verify (reproducible, fixed, no regression)
  • Risk assessment

Output: design.md

Phase 3: Tasks

The agent breaks the fix into discrete tasks:

  • Reproduction test (confirms the bug exists)
  • Fix implementation (surgical change)
  • Regression tests (verify unchanged behavior still works)
  • Validation (confirm all three test properties pass)

Output: tasks.md

Directory Structure

.claude/specs/<bug-name>/
  bugfix.md      # Bug analysis with current/expected/unchanged behavior
  design.md      # Fix approach and test properties
  tasks.md       # Discrete implementation tasks

Tips

  • Be explicit about what code must NOT change — constraints prevent over-fixing
  • Document unchanged behavior carefully — this is what prevents regressions
  • The reproduction test should fail before the fix and pass after
  • Keep the fix surgical; resist the urge to refactor surrounding code

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.

spec-bugfix is a command published in the GitHub repository Habib0x0/spec-driven-plugin (10 stars, last pushed 5mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 20 tokens to every session and 561 once invoked, about $0.0001 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 2026-08-31.
