hotfix

hotfix is a skill for Claude Code from cenconq25/claude-code-app-studio. It costs 57 tokens per session (1,925 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An emergency release workflow for fixing a critical problem in a live app outside the normal sprint process while recording approvals and changes.

In plain words
What is it for?
It creates a hotfix branch, tracks the required bug and approvals, backports the fix to the main branch, and prepares release-store notes.
Why use it?
It provides a controlled path for severe production bugs, store-rejection blockers, or security exposures when waiting could harm users.

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

hotfix 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 5d 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.

Hotfix

The break-glass procedure for shipping a fix outside a sprint. Trades process for speed but keeps an audit trail tight enough to survive post-incident review.


Phase 1: Confirm This Is Actually a Hotfix

Hotfix is justified only when ALL of these hold:

  • A production build is currently live and impacted.
  • The issue is S1 OR a store-rejection blocker OR a security exposure.
  • Waiting for the next sprint would cause further user harm.

Otherwise, route to /bug-triage for normal scheduling.

Ask the user via AskUserQuestion to confirm the trigger:

  • [A] Live S1 — users impacted right now
  • [B] App Store / Play Store rejection — review board needs a fix
  • [C] Security disclosure — needs immediate patch
  • [D] Cancel — this is not a hotfix

If [D], stop and recommend /bug-report or /bug-triage.


Phase 2: Resolve the Bug Record

If BUG-ID is given, read production/qa/bugs/BUG-[ID]-*.md. If not, prompt the user to file one via /bug-report first — every hotfix must have a tracked bug.

Read:

  • The bug record in full.
  • Any related ADRs from the bug's "Related" section.
  • The most recently shipped build's tag (via git tag --sort=-creatordate).

Phase 3: Approval Gate

Hotfix bypasses sprint planning, so a higher approval bar applies. Use AskUserQuestion to capture each:

  • Engineering Lead approval (name)
  • Producer approval (name)
  • QA Lead approval (name)
  • Release Manager approval (name)

If any approval is missing, stop. The audit trail requires all four for a true hotfix. (The user can choose to proceed without a formal hotfix process — but then it's a normal sprint fix.)

Record approvals into the hotfix log (created in Phase 8).


Phase 4: Branch Strategy

Determine the source. Use Bash:

git fetch --tags
git tag --sort=-creatordate | head -n 5

Confirm with the user which release tag is currently live in production.

Create the hotfix branch from that tag:

git checkout -b hotfix/BUG-[ID]-[short-slug] [release-tag]

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.
