# Surgical patch
|
|
|
|
Reproduce failure first when economical; otherwise capture strongest available evidence.
|
|
|
|
- Trace symptom to responsible mechanism.
|
|
- Change narrowest layer that owns incorrect behavior.
|
|
- Preserve unrelated behavior and user changes.
|
|
- Avoid cleanup, renaming, and abstraction outside fix.
|
|
- Add only regression proof relevant to task.
|
|
|
|
Run focused proof plus nearest affected gate. Stop when failure is fixed and regression proof passes.
