…problem is and jump straight to implementation. Sometimes it will be wrong. It can take a lot of back and forth, and for each hypothesis Claude will make changes to the code that it won't undo after it eventually gets the solution right. /bugfix forces a disciplined workflow: reproduce the bug first, prove the root cause before writing any code, then fix it with a failing test as proof. No guessing, no leftover changes from wrong attempts. And after the fix, it closes the test gap that let the bug through in the first place.

When you present Claude Code with a bug, it tends to assume what the problem is and jump straight to implementation. Sometimes it will be wrong. It can take a lot of back and forth, and for each hypothesis Claude will make changes to the code that it won't undo after it eventually gets the solution right.
The new /bugfix skill forces a disciplined workflow: reproduce the bug first, prove the root cause before writing any code, then fix it with a failing test as proof. No guessing, no leftover changes from wrong attempts. And after the fix, it closes the test gap that let the bug through in the first place.
