About this skill
Code Quality Fix All
Fix code quality issues identified in a code quality review. This skill systematically addresses issues found by the code-quality-review-all skill for ANY code quality topic, with validation and testing at each step.
Expected Arguments
When invoked, this skill expects the path to a code quality topic as an argument (e.g., agent_artefacts/code_quality/private_api_imports).
If not provided, the skill will ask the user for the topic path. Within the topic path, there are several files:
- README.md - contains description of the issue and examples of how to fix it
- results.json - contains list of all identified issues
- SUMMARY.md - contains summary of the identified issues
Filters and options are specified interactively after the skill starts by using the AskUserQuestion tool to present options unless specified otherwise in arguments.
- Which issue types to target:
- all
- specific types
- Fix complexity level (easy only, medium and below, or all)
- Which evaluations to fix (all, specific ones, evaluations with small number of issues)
- Maximum number of issues to fix in this run
Workflow
Phase 1: Understanding the Topic and Planning
-
Read topic documentation
- Read the README.md to understand:
- What code quality issue this topic addresses
- Why it matters (stability, maintainability, etc.)
- How to detect the issue
- How to fix the issue (fix patterns, examples)
- Read results.json to get all identified issues
- Identify which issues are in scope based on arguments
- Read the README.md to understand:
-
Analyze and categorize issues
- Analyze fix complexity based on:
- issue_description
- suggested_fix from results.json
- Fix examples in README.md
- Classify as:
- Easy: Single-line changes, clear fix pattern in README
- Medium: Multi-line changes, well-documented fix approach
- Hard: No clear fix pattern, requires research or copying code
- Group issues by evaluation and issue type
- Generate statistics for presenting to user
- Analyze fix complexity based on:
-
Ask user for filtering preferences
- Use
AskUserQuestiontool to ask:- Which evaluations to fix? (all / specific ones / most affected)
- Which issue types to target? (all / specific types)
- Fix complexity level? (easy only / easy+medium / all)
- Max issues per run? (all / limit to specific number)
- Apply filters based on user responses
- Present filtered plan with:
- Number of issues to fix
- Breakdown by evaluation and issue type
- Complexity distribution
- Ask for final confirmation to proceed
- Use
-
Validate understanding of fixes
- For each unique issue type in scope:
- Check if README.md documents how to fix it
- Look for "Good Examples" and "Bad Examples" sections
- Check "suggested_fix" field in results.json
- If fix approach is unclear for any issue type:
- Research the correct approach
- Update
<topic>/README.mdwith findings - Ask user for guidance if still uncertain
- For each unique issue type in scope:
Phase 2: Pre-Fix Validation
For each issue to be fixed:
-
Read and understand context
- Read the entire file containing the issue (not just the line)
- Understand how the problematic code is used
- Look for related issues in the same file
- Check for patterns that might affect the fix (e.g., multiple occurrences)
- Identify any cascading changes needed (related imports, type hints, etc.)
-
Validate the suggested fix
- Review the "suggested_fix" from results.json
- Check against fix patterns in README.md
- Verify the fix won't break functionality
- For complex fixes:
- Check if dependencies/alternatives actually exist
- Validate that replacement code follows same patterns
- Consider edge cases
-
Estimate change scope
- Count how many lines will change for this fix
- Identify if cascading changes are needed
- Determine if multiple files need updating
- If changes exceed 100 lines for a single issue:
- Alert user with:
- Issue details
- Why the change is large
- What will change
- Get explicit approval before proceeding
- Alert user with:
Phase 3: Applying Fixes
- Apply fixes systematically
- Create a new branch to apply fixes to, with a name like
agent/<short_description_of_issue> - Process one evaluation at a time
- Within each evaluation, group by issue type
- For each fix:
- Use Edit tool to apply the change
- Follow the suggested_fix guidance
- Apply fix patterns from README.md
- Handle related issues in same file together
- Add comments if the fix requires it (e.g., copied code attribution)
- Track what was fixed
-
Verify changes compile/parse
- After fixing each file, validate:
- File is syntactically valid (Python can parse it)
- No obvious import errors introduced
- Code follows repository patterns
- If validation fails:
- Investigate the issue
- Attempt to fix validation error
- Rollback change if cannot be resolved
- After fixing each file, validate:
-
Track progress
- Maintain list of:
- Issues successfully fixed (file, line, issue type)
- Issues that couldn't be fixed (with reasons)
- Evaluations that have been modified
- Files that were changed
- Maintain list of:
Phase 4: Testing and Validation
-
Run linting
- Run repository's linter on modified files (ruff, flake8, mypy, etc.)
- Check for:
- Import errors
- Type checking errors
- Style violations introduced
- Fix any linting issues that result from changes
- If linting issues can't be fixed, document them
-
Run unit tests
-
Identify test files for each modified evaluation
-
Run unit tests for affected evaluations using pytest:
Basic test commands:
# Install relevant packages in the event of import failure uv sync --group test # Run tests for a specific evaluation uv run pytest tests/<evaluation_name>/ # Run a specific test file uv run pytest tests/test_file.py # Run a specific test uv run pytest tests/test_file.py::TestClass::test_method # Run slow tests (excluded by default) uv run pytest --runslow tests/ # Skip dataset download tests uv run pytest -m 'not dataset_download' tests/ # Run only slow tests uv run pytest -m slow tests/Test markers to be aware of:
-
@pytest.mark.slow- Tests taking >10 seconds -
@pytest.mark.dataset_download- Tests that download datasets -
@pytest.mark.docker- Tests using Docker -
@pytest.mark.huggingface- HuggingFace-related tests -
Focus on tests for the specific evaluation
-
Look for test failures or errors
-
-
IMPORTANT: Do NOT run full evaluations (they take too long) unless user explicitly requests it
-
-
Handle test failures
- For each test failure:
- Read test output carefully
- Determine if failure is caused by the fix
- Check if it's a pre-existing failure
- If caused by fix:
- Try to adjust the fix to make tests pass
- If cannot be resolved, rollback the change
- Document the issue for user review
- If pre-existing:
- Note it but don't block on it
- Inform user
- For each test failure:
Phase 5: Re-Review and Handle Remaining Issues
-
Update results.json with fix status
-
For each issue that was fixed, add
"fix_status"field after"suggested_fix":{ ... "suggested_fix": "...", "fix_status": "fixed - please review" } -
For issues that couldn't be fixed, add explanation:
"fix_status": "not fixed - reason: ..." -
IMPORTANT: Do NOT remove any entries from results.json - only add/update "fix_status"
-
The code-quality-review-all skill owns results.json and is responsible for removing entries
-
-
Re-run code quality review
- IMPORTANT: Use Task tool to spawn subagent running code-quality-review-all skill
- Pass the same topic path
- This will update results.json with current state
- Compare results before and after to identify:
- Issues that are now resolved (no longer appear)
- New issues that may have been introduced
- Issues that still remain despite fix attempts
-
Fix remaining issues if in scope
- For each new or remaining in-scope issue:
- Investigate why previous fix didn't work
- Attempt alternative fix approach
- Update "fix_status" with attempt results
- Repeat this process until no more in-scope issues can be fixed
- For each new or remaining in-scope issue:
-
Update topic's README.md
- Add any knowledge that you have discovered that will be useful in detecting or fixing topic-related issues in the future
- Do not remove examples of bad code or patterns that were fixed - they will be useful in future reviews and fixes of future evaluations.
-
Update SUMMARY.md
- Add a "Recent Fixes" section with:
- Date of fix run
- Number of issues fixed
- Which evaluations were updated
- Keep historical data (don't remove past information)
- Update recommendations to reflect remaining work
- Add a "Recent Fixes" section with:
-
Run markdown linters
- Use
uv run pre-commit run markdownlint-fixto fix markdown linting issues
- Use
Phase 6: Create PR Description and Present Results
-
Create/Update PR description (cumulative)
-
Read existing
PR_DESCRIPTION.mdif it exists (from previous runs) -
Cumulative tracking: PR description represents ALL changes from branch base, not just this run
-
If PR_DESCRIPTION.md exists:
- Parse existing content to extract previous runs' data
- Append information from this run
- Update cumulative statistics
-
If PR_DESCRIPTION.md doesn't exist (first run):
- Create new file
-
Format for GitHub/GitLab pull request with:
- Summary: Brief overview of the code quality topic and total f
-
Content truncated.
When not to use it
- →When the user has not performed a code quality review
- →When the fix approach is unclear
Prerequisites
Limitations
- →Requires manual approval for large changes
- →Cannot fix issues without clear patterns
How it compares
It automates the remediation workflow with validation steps instead of manually applying fixes to each file.
