Prefix paths with `"$CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR/"` when invoking from subdirectories. **Iron Law: NO FIXES WITHOUT ROOT CAUSE INVESTIGATION FIRST.** ## Skill wiring - **Reads memory:** `.claude/memory/fixes.md`, `.claude/memory/architecture-decisions.md` - **Writes memory:** `.claude/memory/fixes.md` via direct `Edit` (diagnosis records only — `##note:` is a user-typed keyboard shortcut that does NOT fire from agent output; the fix itself is persisted by `mk:fix`). See `.claude/skills/memory/references/capture-architecture.md`. ## Plan-First Gate Investigation precedes planning for bug fixes: 1. Confirm root cause FIRST (Iron Law) 2. After root cause confirmed → invoke `mk:plan-creator --type bugfix` if fix affects > 2 files Skip: Investigation itself doesn't need a plan — it produces the input for planning. ## When to Use - User reports errors, bugs, unexpected behavior - "debug this", "fix this bug", "why is this broken" - "investigate this error", "root cause analysis" - Troubleshooting why something stopped working ## Process 1. **Run preamble** — load `references/preamble.md` and execute the startup bash block 2. **Collect symptoms** — read error messages, stack traces, reproduction steps 3. **Investigate root cause** —
