Fix Failing PR

Autonomous workflow to fix CI failures for a PR. Delegates failure identification to subagent, then applies fixes.

Usage

/fix-pr 19882

Workflow

Phase 0: Validate PR

Before doing anything, verify the PR is valid:

gh pr view <PR> --repo AztecProtocol/aztec-packages --json state,baseRefName,headRefName

Abort if:

• state is not OPEN → "PR #<N> is <state>, nothing to fix."

Phase 1: Identify Failures

Spawn the identify-ci-failures subagent:

Use Task tool with subagent_type: "identify-ci-failures"
Prompt: "Identify CI failures for PR <number>"

This returns:

• Failure type (build/format/lint/unit-test/e2e-test)
• Test names, hashes, error snippets
• Local file paths for logs

If the subagent cannot find CI logs, ask the user for:

• The CI log URL directly
• Or the CI password if authentication is needed

Phase 2: Checkout and Rebase

gh pr checkout <PR>
git fetch origin <base-branch>
git rebase origin/<base-branch>

If there are conflicts:

1. Resolve the conflicts
2. git add <resolved-files>
3. git rebase --continue

Important: Always REBASE, never merge.

Phase 3: Bootstrap (if needed)

Check if changes exist outside yarn-project:

git diff origin/<base-branch>...HEAD --name-only | grep -v '^yarn-project/'

If yes, run bootstrap:

(cd $(git rev-parse --show-toplevel) && ./bootstrap.sh build yarn-project)

Phase 4: Fix Based on Failure Type

Run from yarn-project directory.

Phase 5: Quality Checklist

Before committing, run from yarn-project:

yarn build
yarn format
yarn lint

Run tests for modified files:

yarn workspace @aztec/<package> test <file>.test.ts

Phase 6: Commit and Push

If the PR targets next, amend to keep it as a single commit:

git add .
git commit --amend --no-edit
git push --force-with-lease

Otherwise, create a normal commit:

git add .
git commit -m "fix: <description of fix>"
git push

Key Points

• Validate first: Only fix PRs that are open
• Delegate identification: Use identify-ci-failures subagent, don't analyze logs directly
• Rebase, don't merge: Always rebase on the base branch
• Amend only for PRs targeting next: Other PRs use normal commits
• Bootstrap when needed: Only if changes outside yarn-project
• Escalate e2e failures: Complex e2e issues need /debug-e2e
