Try Fix Skill

Attempts ONE fix for a given problem. Receives all context upfront, tries a single approach, tests it, and reports what happened.

Activation Guard

🚨 This skill is ONLY for proposing and testing code fixes. Do NOT activate for:

  • Code review requests (“review this PR”, “check code quality”)
  • PR summaries or descriptions (“what does this PR do?”)
  • Test-only requests (“run tests”, “check CI status”)
  • General questions about code or architecture

If the prompt does not include a problem to fix and a test command to verify, this skill should not run.

Core Principles

  1. Always run once activated - Never question whether to run. The invoker decides WHEN, you decide WHAT alternative to try
  2. Single-shot - Each invocation = ONE fix idea, tested, reported
  3. Alternative-focused - Always propose something DIFFERENT from existing fixes (review PR changes first)
  4. Empirical - Actually implement and test, don’t just theorize
  5. Context-driven - Work with what’s provided and git history; don’t search external sources

Every invocation runs all 11 Workflow steps below. Step 6 (Expert Self-Review) is performed inline against .github/agents/maui-expert-reviewer.md — do NOT spawn the @maui-expert-reviewer sub-agent. Step 7.5 refreshes the self-review if the test loop modified code so the recorded findings reflect the final diff. Step 8 enforces this via a file-existence gate on reviewer-findings.json.

⚠️ CRITICAL: Sequential Execution Only

🚨 Try-fix runs MUST be executed ONE AT A TIME - NEVER in parallel.

Why: Each try-fix run:

  • Modifies the same target source files
  • Uses the same device/emulator for testing
  • Runs EstablishBrokenBaseline.ps1 which reverts files to a known state

If run in parallel:

  • Multiple agents will overwrite each other’s code changes
  • Device tests will interfere with each other
  • Baseline script will conflict, causing unpredictable file states
  • Results will be corrupted and unreliable

Correct pattern: Run attempt-1, wait for completion, then run attempt-2, etc.

Inputs

All inputs are provided by the invoker (CI, agent, or user).

InputRequiredDescription
ProblemYesDescription of the bug/issue to fix
Test commandYesRepository-specific script to build and test. Use BuildAndRunHostApp.ps1 for UI tests, Run-DeviceTests.ps1 for device tests, or dotnet test for unit tests. The correct command is determined by the test type detected in the PR. ALWAYS use the appropriate script - NEVER manually build/compile.
Target filesYesFiles to investigate for the fix
PlatformYesTarget platform (android, ios, windows, maccatalyst)
HintsOptionalSuggested approaches, prior attempts, or areas to focus on
BaselineOptionalGit ref or instructions for establishing broken state (default: current state)

Outputs

Results reported back to the invoker:

FieldDescription
approachWhat fix was attempted (brief description)
files_changedWhich files were modified
resultPass, Fail, or Blocked
analysisWhy it worked, or why it failed and what was learned
diffThe actual code changes made (for review)
findings_countNumber of self-review findings recorded (0 = clean self-review)

Output Structure (MANDATORY)

FIRST STEP: Create output directory before doing anything else.

# Set issue/PR number explicitly (from branch name, PR context, or manual input)
$IssueNumber = "<ISSUE_OR_PR_NUMBER>"  # Replace with actual number

# Find next attempt number
$tryFixDir = "CustomAgentLogsTmp/PRState/$IssueNumber/PRAgent/try-fix"
$existingAttempts = (Get-ChildItem "$tryFixDir/attempt-*" -Directory -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue).Count
$attemptNum = $existingAttempts + 1

# Create output directory
$OUTPUT_DIR = "$tryFixDir/attempt-$attemptNum"
New-Item -ItemType Directory -Path $OUTPUT_DIR -Force | Out-Null

Write-Host "Output directory: $OUTPUT_DIR"

Required files to create in $OUTPUT_DIR:

FileWhen to CreateContent
baseline.logAfter Step 2 (Baseline)Output from EstablishBrokenBaseline.ps1 proving baseline was established
approach.mdAfter Step 4 (Design)What fix you’re attempting and why it’s different from existing fixes
reviewer-findings.jsonAfter Step 6 (Self-Review), refreshed by Step 7.5JSON array of self-review findings — [] when clean. MUST reflect the final diff.
reviewer-findings.diffAfter Step 6 (Self-Review), refreshed by Step 7.5Snapshot of git diff at the time the self-review was written. Step 7.5 compares this to the post-test-loop diff to detect drift.
result.txtAfter Step 7 (Test)Single word: Pass, Fail, or Blocked
fix.diffAfter Step 7 (Test)Output of git diff showing your changes
test-output.logAfter Step 7 (Test)Full output from test command
analysis.mdAfter Step 8 (Capture)Why it worked/failed, insights learned, and a one-line self-review summary

Example approach.md:

## Approach: Geometric Off-Screen Check

Skip RequestApplyInsets for views completely off-screen using simple bounds check:
`viewLeft >= screenWidth || viewRight <= 0 || viewTop >= screenHeight || viewBottom <= 0`

**Different from existing fix:** Current fix uses HashSet tracking. This approach uses pure geometry with no state.

Example result.txt:

Pass

Completion Criteria

The skill is complete when:

  • Problem understood from provided context
  • ONE fix approach designed and implemented
  • Fix tested with provided test command (iterated up to 3 times if errors/failures)
  • Either: Tests PASS ✅, or exhausted attempts and documented why approach won’t work ❌
  • Expert self-review performed inline (Step 6) and reviewer-findings.json written[] if clean. Refreshed by Step 7.5 if the test loop modified code, so the saved findings reflect the final diff.
  • Analysis provided (success explanation or failure reasoning with evidence)
  • Artifacts saved to output directory (verified by Step 8 file-existence gate)
  • Baseline restored (working directory clean)
  • Results reported to invoker (including findings_count)

🚨 CRITICAL: What counts as “Pass” vs “Fail”

ScenarioResultExplanation
Test command runs, tests passPassActual validation
Test command runs, tests failFailFix didn’t work
Code compiles but no device available⚠️ BlockedDevice/emulator unavailable - report with explanation
Code compiles but test command errorsFailInfrastructure issue is still a failure
Code doesn’t compileFailFix is broken

NEVER claim “Pass” based on:

  • ❌ “Code compiles successfully” alone
  • ❌ “Code review validates the logic”
  • ❌ “The approach is sound”
  • ❌ “Device was unavailable but fix looks correct”

Pass REQUIRES: The test command executed AND reported test success.

If device/emulator is unavailable: Report result.txt = Blocked with explanation. Do NOT manufacture a Pass.

Exhaustion criteria: Stop after 3 iterations if:

  1. Code compiles but tests consistently fail for same reason
  2. Root cause analysis reveals fundamental flaw in approach
  3. Alternative fixes would require completely different strategy

Never stop due to: Compile errors (fix them), infrastructure blame (debug your code), giving up too early.

Session limits: Each try-fix invocation allows up to 3 compile/test iterations. The calling orchestrator controls how many invocations (attempts) to run per session (typically 4-5 as part of pr-review Phase 3).


Workflow

Step 1: Understand the Problem and Review Existing Fixes

MANDATORY: Review what has already been tried:

  1. Check for existing PR changes:

    git diff origin/main HEAD --name-only
    • Review what files were changed
    • Read the actual code changes to understand the current fix approach
  2. Review prior attempts if any are known:

    • Note which approaches failed and WHY
    • Note which approaches partially succeeded
  3. Identify what makes your approach DIFFERENT:

    • Don’t repeat the same logic/pattern as existing fixes
    • Think of alternative approaches: different algorithm, different location, different strategy
    • If existing fix modifies X, consider modifying Y instead
    • If existing fix adds logic, consider removing/simplifying instead

Examples of alternatives:

  • Existing fix: Add caching → Alternative: Change when updates happen
  • Existing fix: Fix in handler → Alternative: Fix in platform layer

Review the provided context:

  • What is the bug/issue?
  • What test command verifies the fix?
  • What files should be investigated?
  • Are there hints about what to try or avoid?

Do NOT search for external context. Work with what’s provided and the git history.

Step 2: Establish Baseline (MANDATORY)

🚨 ONLY use EstablishBrokenBaseline.ps1 — NEVER use git checkout, git restore, or git reset to revert fix files.

The script auto-restores any previous baseline, tracks state, and prevents loops. Manual git commands bypass all of this and WILL cause infinite loops in CI.

pwsh .github/scripts/EstablishBrokenBaseline.ps1 *>&1 | Tee-Object -FilePath "$OUTPUT_DIR/baseline.log"

Verify baseline was established:

Select-String -Path "$OUTPUT_DIR/baseline.log" -Pattern "Baseline established"

If the script fails with “No fix files detected”: Report as Blocked — do NOT switch branches.

If something fails mid-attempt: pwsh .github/scripts/EstablishBrokenBaseline.ps1 -Restore

Step 3: Analyze Target Files

Read the target files to understand the code.

Verify the platform code path before implementing. Check which platform-specific file actually executes for the target scenario:

  • Files named .iOS.cs compile for both iOS AND MacCatalyst
  • Files named .Android.cs only compile for Android
  • Some platforms use Legacy implementations (e.g., iOS NavigationPage uses NavigationPage.Legacy.cs, not MauiNavigationImpl) If unsure which code path runs, check AppHostBuilderExtensions or handler registration to confirm.

Key questions:

  • What is the root cause of this bug?
  • Where should the fix go?
  • What’s the minimal change needed?

Step 4: Design ONE Fix

Based on your analysis and any provided hints, design a single fix approach:

  • Which file(s) to change
  • What the change is
  • Why you think this will work

“Different” means different ROOT CAUSE hypothesis, not just different code location.

  • ❌ Bad: PR checks adapter == null in OnMeasure; you check adapter == null in OnLayout (same root cause assumption — just a different call site)
  • ✅ Good: PR checks adapter == null; you prevent disposal from happening during measure (different root cause hypothesis)

If hints suggest specific approaches, prioritize those.

IMMEDIATELY create approach.md in your output directory:

@"
## Approach: [Brief Name]

[Description of what you're changing and why]

**Different from existing fix:** [How this differs from PR's current approach]
"@ | Set-Content "$OUTPUT_DIR/approach.md"

Step 5: Apply the Fix

Implement your fix. Use git status --short and git diff to track changes.

Step 6: Expert Self-Review (MANDATORY — runs BEFORE testing)

🚨 You perform this self-review yourself. Do NOT spawn the @maui-expert-reviewer sub-agent. Step 8’s file-existence gate enforces that reviewer-findings.json is written every attempt.

This step runs BEFORE testing so you can catch design flaws before spending time on build+test cycles.

Procedure:

  1. Read the rules. View these specific sections of .github/agents/maui-expert-reviewer.md:

    • ## Overarching Principles (8 numbered principles, near the top of the file) — apply to every fix
    • ## Dimension Routing + ### Always-Active Dimensions — pick the dimensions that match your changed files
    • For each routed dimension, jump to its CHECK list under ## Review Dimensions (e.g., ### 1. Layout Measure-Arrange Correctness)

    You only need the dimensions that match the files you actually touched plus the always-active ones — typically 3–6 sections, not all 30.

  2. Identify your changed files:

    git diff --name-only HEAD

    If you have NO code changes (e.g., Blocked because no device available before any fix was applied), still proceed to step 4 and write '[]' — the artifact gate is the enforcement mechanism.

  3. Walk your diff against the rules:

    • For each Overarching Principle → does your diff violate it?
    • For each routed dimension → walk every CHECK rule against the relevant hunks
    • Always-Active dimensions (Logic and Correctness, Regression Prevention, Complexity Reduction) → apply regardless of file paths
    • Be honest. If unsure, flag it.
  4. Write findings to $OUTPUT_DIR/reviewer-findings.json. Always write the file, even when there are zero findings. Use the same JSON format as the @maui-expert-reviewer agent (matches the GitHub Pull Request Review API):

    # No findings — clean self-review (or no diff to review):
    '[]' | Set-Content "$OUTPUT_DIR/reviewer-findings.json"
    
    # With findings — JSON array of {path, line, body}:
    @'
    [
      {
        "path": "src/Core/src/Handlers/ScrollView/ScrollViewHandler.iOS.cs",
        "line": 42,
        "body": "**[major] Layout Measure-Arrange** — Content measured with unconstrained height but arranged with bounded height. Concrete scenario: ScrollView inside a Grid with Star row height."
      }
    ]
    '@ | Set-Content "$OUTPUT_DIR/reviewer-findings.json"

    Each entry has exactly 3 fields:

    • path (string) — file relative to repo root, must be a file present in your diff
    • line (integer ≥ 1) — line number on the changed (right) side of the diff. The line MUST appear in your diff — picking an unchanged line is wrong. Use 1 only as a fallback for file-level concerns where no single line captures the issue (e.g., missing import, structural concern).
    • body (string) — format **[severity] Dimension** — description. Severity is one of critical/major/moderate/minor.
  5. Validate the JSON parses and capture the count:

    try {
        $findings = @(Get-Content "$OUTPUT_DIR/reviewer-findings.json" -Raw | ConvertFrom-Json)
        $findingsCount = $findings.Count
        Write-Host "✅ reviewer-findings.json: $findingsCount findings"
    } catch {
        Write-Host "❌ reviewer-findings.json is invalid JSON: $_"
        throw
    }
    
    # Snapshot the diff that was reviewed — Step 7.5 uses this to detect whether the test loop mutated code.
    # Use Set-Content -Value with Out-String so the file is created even when the diff is empty
    # (a bare `git diff | Set-Content` does NOT create the file when the pipe is empty).
    Set-Content -Path "$OUTPUT_DIR/reviewer-findings.diff" -Value (git diff | Out-String) -NoNewline

    Remember $findingsCount — you will report it as findings_count in Step 10 and summarize it in analysis.md (Step 8).

  6. Fix critical/major findings BEFORE testing:

    • If there are any [critical] or [major] findings → apply fixes for them in a single batch and rewrite reviewer-findings.json to reflect the new diff.
    • All [moderate] and [minor] findings → note in analysis.md (Step 8); do NOT iterate.
    • Only ONE correction round. Then proceed to Step 7 (Test).

Threshold guidance. Only record findings with a concrete failing scenario. Stylistic preferences and bikeshedding (see the ## What NOT to Flag table in maui-expert-reviewer.md) are not findings. An empty [] is the correct output for a clean fix — do not invent findings to fill the file.

Why before testing? Self-review catches design flaws (wrong null check, missing platform guard, thread safety issue) before you spend 5-15 minutes on a build+test cycle. It also runs when context is lightest — before test output floods the context window.

Step 7: Test and Iterate (MANDATORY)

🚨 CRITICAL: ALWAYS use the provided test command script - NEVER manually build/compile.

For .NET MAUI repository: Use the test script matching the test type:

Test TypeCommand
UITestpwsh .github/scripts/BuildAndRunHostApp.ps1 -Platform <platform> -TestFilter "<filter>"
DeviceTestpwsh .github/skills/run-device-tests/scripts/Run-DeviceTests.ps1 -Project <project> -Platform <platform> -TestFilter "<filter>"
UnitTestdotnet test <project.csproj> --filter "<filter>"
# Capture output to test-output.log while also displaying it
# Example for UI tests:
pwsh .github/scripts/BuildAndRunHostApp.ps1 -Platform <platform> -TestFilter "<filter>" *>&1 | Tee-Object -FilePath "$OUTPUT_DIR/test-output.log"

# Example for device tests:
pwsh .github/skills/run-device-tests/scripts/Run-DeviceTests.ps1 -Project <project> -Platform <platform> -TestFilter "<filter>" *>&1 | Tee-Object -FilePath "$OUTPUT_DIR/test-output.log"

Testing Loop (Iterate until SUCCESS or exhausted):

  1. Run the test command - It will build, deploy, and test automatically
  2. Check the result:
    • Tests PASS → Move to Step 7.5 (Refresh self-review if needed)
    • Compile errors → Fix compilation issues (see below), go to step 1
    • Tests FAIL (runtime) → Analyze failure, fix code, go to step 1
  3. Maximum 3 iterations - If still failing after 3 attempts, analyze if approach is fundamentally flawed
  4. Document why - If exhausted, explain what you learned and why the approach won’t work

Behavioral constraints:

  • ⚠️ NEVER blame “test infrastructure” - assume YOUR fix has a bug
  • Compile errors mean “work harder” - not “give up”
  • DO NOT manually build - always rerun the test command script

See references/compile-errors.md for error patterns and iteration examples.

Step 7.5: Refresh Self-Review If Code Changed (MANDATORY)

🚨 The test loop in Step 7 may modify code (compile-error fixes, runtime-error fixes). When that happens, the reviewer-findings.json written in Step 6 describes a stale diff — not the diff that will be captured in Step 8 and shipped to the reviewer. This step re-runs the self-review against the final diff so the recorded findings always correspond to the actual fix.

Procedure:

  1. Detect drift. Compare the current working-tree diff against the diff Step 6 reviewed.

    # Force both sides to a single string. `git diff` assigned to a variable is a string[]
    # (one element per line); `-ne` between an array and a scalar is element-wise filtering,
    # not equality. Both must be normalized to the same shape before comparison.
    #
    # Also: `Get-Content -Raw` on a 0-byte file returns $null, not "". The Step 6 snapshot
    # creates a 0-byte file when the diff is empty (the documented Blocked-with-no-diff path),
    # so coalesce $null to "" via `?? ''` to avoid a false-positive "" -ne $null drift detection.
    $currentDiff  = (git diff | Out-String)
    $reviewedDiff = if (Test-Path "$OUTPUT_DIR/reviewer-findings.diff") {
        (Get-Content "$OUTPUT_DIR/reviewer-findings.diff" -Raw) ?? ''
    } else { '' }
    
    $diffChanged = ($currentDiff -ne $reviewedDiff)
    if (-not $diffChanged) {
        Write-Host "✅ Diff unchanged since Step 6 — self-review still current. Skip sub-steps 2 and 3."
    } else {
        Write-Host "🔁 Code changed during Step 7 — refreshing self-review against final diff..."
    }
  2. If $diffChanged is $true, re-do the Step 6 self-review against the new diff. This is YOU walking the rules again — it is not something the script does. Repeat the same procedure from Step 6:

    1. Re-list changed files: git diff --name-only HEAD
    2. Re-walk the rules in .github/agents/maui-expert-reviewer.md — every Overarching Principle, the always-active dimensions, and any routed dimensions whose file paths now match.
    3. Rewrite $OUTPUT_DIR/reviewer-findings.json with the new findings (or '[]' if clean). The file MUST be overwritten — appending or leaving the old content is a bug. Use the same JSON schema documented in Step 6.
  3. Re-snapshot and re-validate. Only after rewriting the JSON in sub-step 2, run:

    # Re-snapshot the diff (matches Step 6's snapshot logic — works for empty diffs too).
    Set-Content -Path "$OUTPUT_DIR/reviewer-findings.diff" -Value (git diff | Out-String) -NoNewline
    
    # Re-validate the JSON parses and capture the new count.
    try {
        $findings = @(Get-Content "$OUTPUT_DIR/reviewer-findings.json" -Raw | ConvertFrom-Json)
        $findingsCount = $findings.Count
        Write-Host "✅ reviewer-findings.json refreshed: $findingsCount findings"
    } catch {
        Write-Host "❌ reviewer-findings.json is invalid JSON: $_"
        throw
    }

    Why no programmatic “did you actually rewrite the JSON” check? A SHA256 hash sentinel rejects the legitimate byte-identical case (e.g., [][] after a small compile fix that introduces no new violations), and that case is common. The procedural enforcement is sub-step 2’s explicit numbered list above, plus the example-invocation chain that walks the dimensions explicitly. If sub-step 2 is skipped, the JSON validates but ships a stale review — accept that risk in exchange for not blocking valid clean fixes.

Severity handling is the same as Step 6. If the refresh surfaces new [critical] or [major] findings, you may apply ONE more fix batch and re-run the test loop, then re-refresh. Do not loop indefinitely — if a fix introduces critical findings on the third pass, mark the attempt Blocked and explain in analysis.md.

Step 8: Capture Artifacts (MANDATORY)

Before reverting, save ALL required files to $OUTPUT_DIR:

# 1. Save result (MUST be exactly "Pass", "Fail", or "Blocked")
"Pass" | Set-Content "$OUTPUT_DIR/result.txt"  # or "Fail"

# 2. Save the diff (use Set-Content -Value with Out-String so the file is created
#    even when the diff is empty — a bare `git diff | Set-Content` does not create
#    the file when the pipe is empty, which would fail the artifact gate.)
Set-Content -Path "$OUTPUT_DIR/fix.diff" -Value (git diff | Out-String) -NoNewline

# 3. Save test output (should already exist from Step 7)
# Copy-Item "path/to/test-output.log" "$OUTPUT_DIR/test-output.log"

# 4. reviewer-findings.json should already exist from Step 6 (and may have been refreshed by Step 7.5)
# 4b. reviewer-findings.diff snapshot (used by Step 7.5 to detect drift)

# 5. Save analysis (include a one-line summary of self-review findings)
@"
## Analysis

**Result:** Pass/Fail/Blocked

**What happened:** [Description of test results]

**Why it worked/failed:** [Root cause analysis]

**Self-review:** [N findings: brief summary of each, or "clean — no findings"]

**Insights:** [What was learned that could help future attempts]
"@ | Set-Content "$OUTPUT_DIR/analysis.md"

Verify all required files exist (this is the enforcement gate for Steps 6 and 7 — primarily reviewer-findings.json from Step 6, refreshed by Step 7.5 if needed):

🚨 The artifact check below MUST be wrapped so that Step 9 (Restore) ALWAYS runs even if the check fails. A failed gate that skips restore would leave the worktree dirty and corrupt the next sequential try-fix attempt.

# Run the file-existence check, but DEFER any throw until after Step 9 has restored the worktree.
$missing = @()
@("baseline.log", "approach.md", "result.txt", "fix.diff", "analysis.md", "test-output.log", "reviewer-findings.json", "reviewer-findings.diff") | ForEach-Object {
    if (Test-Path "$OUTPUT_DIR/$_") {
        Write-Host "✅ $_"
    } else {
        Write-Host "❌ MISSING: $_"
        $missing += $_
    }
}

# Record the gate result for use after Step 9 — DO NOT throw here.
if ($missing.Count -gt 0) {
    $gateFailureMessage = "Required artifacts missing: $($missing -join ', '). If 'reviewer-findings.json' is missing, Step 6 (Expert Self-Review) was not performed (or Step 7.5 did not refresh it after the test loop) — it is mandatory and must contain at least '[]' that reflects the final diff."
    Write-Host "⚠️  ARTIFACT GATE FAILED — proceeding to Step 9 restore before reporting failure."
    Write-Host $gateFailureMessage
    "Blocked" | Set-Content "$OUTPUT_DIR/result.txt" -Force
} else {
    $gateFailureMessage = $null
}

If $gateFailureMessage was set: Step 9 still runs (do NOT skip it). After Step 9 restores the worktree, surface the failure in Step 10’s report — set result.txt to Blocked (already done above) and explain in analysis.md which artifact was missing. The next sequential attempt then starts from a clean worktree.

Analysis quality matters. Bad: “Didn’t work”. Good: “Fix attempted to reset state in OnPageSelected, but this fires after layout measurement. The cached value was already used.”

Step 9: Restore Working Directory (MANDATORY — runs even if Step 8 gate failed)

ALWAYS restore, even if fix failed or Step 8 detected missing artifacts. Skipping restore corrupts the next sequential try-fix attempt.

pwsh .github/scripts/EstablishBrokenBaseline.ps1 -Restore

🚨 Use EstablishBrokenBaseline.ps1 -Restore — not git checkout, git restore, or git reset (see Step 2 for why).

Step 10: Report Results

Provide structured output to the invoker:

## Try-Fix Result

**Approach:** [Brief description of what was tried]

**Files Changed:**
- `path/to/file.cs` (+X/-Y lines)

**Result:** ✅ PASS / ❌ FAIL

**Self-Review:** N findings (X critical, Y major, Z moderate/minor) — see `reviewer-findings.json`

**Analysis:**
[Why it worked, or why it failed and what was learned]

**Diff:**
(paste `git diff` output here)

**This Attempt's Status:** Done/NeedsRetry
**Reasoning:** [Why this specific approach succeeded or failed]

Determining Status: Set Done when you’ve completed testing this approach (whether it passed or failed). Set NeedsRetry only if you hit a transient error (network timeout, flaky test) and want to retry the same approach.

Guidelines for Proposing Fixes

Good Fix Approaches

Null/state checks - Guard against unexpected null or state ✅ Lifecycle timing - Move code to correct lifecycle event ✅ Cache invalidation - Reset stale cached values

Approaches to Avoid

Massive refactors - Keep changes minimal ❌ Suppressing symptoms - Fix root cause, not symptoms ❌ Multiple unrelated changes - ONE focused fix per invocation
