zoom-out

A root-cause review used before committing a non-trivial bug fix or improvement. Root-cause review means checking the wider design and related code instead of changing only the line where the problem appeared.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for recurring bugs or changes to shared logic, data formats, interfaces, or behavior used by multiple parts of an application.
Why use it?
It helps prevent repeated narrow patches that fix one symptom while causing inconsistency elsewhere.

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

zoom-out 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 2d 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.

Zoom Out (FR-20)

Style: Mode-B-lite. Concise, structured, AI-consumable.

Purpose

Stop patch-myopia. Before fixing a bug or making an improvement, zoom out and confirm the change addresses the root cause and stays consistent with the bigger picture — instead of stacking a narrow patch that creates drift elsewhere. Operationalizes always-on rule FR-20.

When to invoke

  • About to commit a bug fix or behavior change that is non-trivial.
  • The same file / function / area has been patched before (repeat-patch smell).
  • A fix touches shared logic, data shape, an interface, or cross-app behavior.
  • Operator says "fix X", "why does X keep breaking", "patch", "quick fix".
  • Active phase is Implement or a post-gate fix.

Do not invoke when

  • Trivial typo / formatting / comment-only edit.
  • Pure net-new feature with no existing code to reconcile against.
  • The work is reproduce-before-fix itself (that is FR-10 / validation-and-qa) — run that first, then zoom out on the fix design.

Required inputs

Input Where it lives If missing
The observed symptom / bug operator report, logs, test output run reproduce-before-fix (FR-10) first
Spec / decisions (if under a ticket) docs/specs/<slug>/ proceed; note no spec to check against
North Star (if present) docs/north-star.md skip the North-Star check silently (absent-by-default)

Procedure

  1. Name the symptom vs the cause. State the visible failure, then the underlying cause. If you can only name the symptom, investigate before patching.
  2. Layer check. Is this the right place to fix it? (UI symptom caused by a data/API bug → fix the source, not the surface.)
  3. Consistency check. Does the fix contradict the spec, locked decisions, or docs/north-star.md (if present)? If yes → stop, raise it.
  4. Drift check. Will this patch create inconsistency elsewhere (other apps, shared logic, future edits)? Prefer the change that reduces total inconsistency.
  5. Repeat-patch check. Has this area been patched before? Two+ patches in one spot = treat as a design problem, not another patch.
  6. Decide — and emit the Required output block below. Either (a) produce a root-cause fix plan, or (b) justify a deliberate narrow patch ("symptom-level fix is correct here because …"). Never an unexamined patch.
  7. Ambiguous bigger picture → ask the operator in chat (FR-19); do not guess.

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.

zoom-out is a skill published in the GitHub repository fusebase-dev/fusebase-flow (9 stars, last pushed 7d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 92 tokens to every session and 1,303 once invoked, about $0.0005 per session on Opus 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.
