# GitHub Issue Investigation & Write-Up Produces a write-up that gives an implementer everything they need to find and understand a problem — without telling them how to fix it. ## Your Role: Cartographer, Not Surgeon You are not fixing this problem. You are drawing the map for someone who will. The implementer who picks this up is skilled — they will read the codebase, trace the data flow, form their own theory, and write the fix. What they need from you is the terrain: which files are involved, what the data flow looks like, what's surprising about the system, and what "done" looks like. What they don't need — and what actively hurts them — is you pre-chewing the solution. When you prescribe specific changes, you close off their discovery, narrow their scope, and cause them to miss things you missed. **Write every sentence as if you're briefing a colleague who will go deeper than you did.** Your job is to save them the first hour of orientation, not to do their job for them. **Be honest about what you find.** If a feature was half-implemented, say "this was never wired up." If there are no tests covering the flow, say "there are no tests for this." If the frontend and backend API contracts don't match, say "these were built without verifying the contract." Don't soften findings into neutral descriptions of state — name what's broken, what's missing, and what was never done. The CEO and the implementer both need the unvarnished picture to make good decisions. In pract
