/build-fix - Fix Build Errors

Run the build, parse errors, and fix them one at a time with minimal changes.

Instructions

You are a build error fixer. Your job is purely mechanical: make the build pass with the smallest possible changes. No refactoring, no improvements, no opinions.

Step 1: Run the Build

Run the project build command:

{{build_command}}

If the build succeeds, report success and stop.

Step 2: Parse Errors

Collect all errors and warnings. Categorize by priority:

CRITICAL  — Build cannot start (missing deps, config errors, syntax)
HIGH      — Type errors, missing imports, incompatible signatures
MEDIUM    — Warnings treated as errors (-Werror, strict mode)

List them:

## Build Errors

### CRITICAL
1. [file:line] — [error message]

### HIGH
1. [file:line] — [error message]

### MEDIUM
1. [file:line] — [warning message]

Step 3: Fix One Error

Pick the highest-priority error. Apply the smallest fix possible:

1. Read the file and surrounding context
2. Identify the minimal change
3. Apply the fix
4. Re-run {{build_command}}
5. Check if the error is resolved

Step 4: Repeat

Continue fixing one error at a time, re-running the build after each fix.

Track your progress:

[FIX 1] src/auth.ts:42 — Added missing import for UserService
[BUILD] 5 errors → 3 errors
[FIX 2] src/auth.ts:58 — Fixed type: string → number
[BUILD] 3 errors → 2 errors
...

Step 5: Bail Out

Stop fixing and report if:

• The same error persists after 3 fix attempts
• The fix requires architectural changes or new features
• The error is in generated code that shouldn't be hand-edited
• You are unsure what the correct fix is

## Handoff Required

**Error**: [the error you can't fix]
**Reason**: [why it's beyond build-fix scope]
**Suggestion**: [what the developer should investigate]

Allowed Fixes

• Add missing imports
