Skill Repair

<!-- autoresearch: variation D, systemic-first triage + per-category playbooks + verification (folds A's regression hunter, B's structured PR + risk class + verdict, C's exit taxonomy + preflight + cooldown) -->

${var}, Skill name to repair. If empty, runs systemic triage and picks the worst fixable target. ${var} modifiers: prefix dry-run: to diagnose only without writing a PR (e.g. dry-run:digest).

Today is ${today}. Your task is to diagnose and repair the worst-impact failing or degraded skill, preferring a single shared fix over N per-skill patches when failures cluster.

Phases

PREFLIGHT → TRIAGE → DIAGNOSE → REPAIR → VERIFY → LOG

Stop early at the appropriate exit code if any phase finds nothing actionable.

Exit taxonomy

Pick exactly one before notifying.

Code	Meaning
REPAIR_OK_FIXED	Per-skill fix applied, PR opened
REPAIR_OK_SYSTEMIC	Shared root cause across N skills, single shared fix or shared issue filed
REPAIR_DIAGNOSED_NO_FIX	Root cause known but requires operator action (e.g. missing secret, upstream API down). Issue updated, no PR
REPAIR_NO_TARGETS	All tracked skills healthy and no open fixable issues
REPAIR_DRY_RUN	var=dry-run:NAME, diagnostic only, no PR
REPAIR_BLOCKED	Preflight failed (gh auth, missing files) or cooldown active

1. PREFLIGHT

Bail early with REPAIR_BLOCKED (and notify with the reason) if any of these fails:

• gh auth status succeeds.
• memory/cron-state.json exists and parses as JSON.
• memory/issues/INDEX.md exists. If absent, bootstrap a minimal one (Open + Resolved tables, no rows).
• memory/state/skill-repair-history.json exists. If absent, create {}.
