vouch-resolve-issue

A workflow for using a project's vouch knowledge base while resolving a GitHub issue. A GitHub issue is a tracked bug report or task, and the workflow also records lessons from the completed fix.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to investigate an issue, check related claims, reproduce the bug, make the smallest fix, and propose cited claims after the fix is committed.
Why use it?
It gives the contributor relevant existing project knowledge before changing code and preserves the cause and solution for future contributors. Proposed knowledge remains subject to maintainer review.

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

vouch-resolve-issue 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.

What it actually says

/vouch-resolve-issue

Wire vouch's kb_context into an issue-resolution flow: the KB should inform the fix, and the act of solving should propose new claims that make the next contributor faster.

Steps:

  1. Parse $ARGUMENTS as a GitHub issue URL or <owner>/<repo>#<num> shorthand. If neither, ask for clarification.
  2. kb_context with the issue title + body — what does the KB already know about this area? Show the top 5 claims.
  3. Read the relevant code paths.
  4. Propose the smallest fix (run the project's tests first to confirm the bug reproduces).
  5. After the fix is committed, propose at most three new claims via kb_propose_claim that capture:
    • the root cause in one sentence (cited by the offending file:line),
    • the chosen fix pattern (cited by the patch commit), and
    • any policy/precedent established (only if novel).

Do not auto-approve. Leave the proposals in .vouch/proposed/ for the maintainer to review with vouch approve after the PR merges.

Changes

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.
