About
orch-fix-defect is a Claude Code skill that orchestrates fixing a bug by reproducing it as a failing regression test, fixing to green, reviewing, and gated-committing. It is a thin wrapper over the shared orch-pipeline engine that delegates each phase to the matching ECC agent, scoping unclear root causes with code-explorer and escalating build breaks to build-error-resolver. A developer uses it when existing behavior is broken (wrong output, an error, a crash, or a regression), distinct from changing or adding a feature.

- Escalates unclear root cause to code-explorer and build breaks to build-error-resolver; commits with a fix: prefix

What orch-fix-defect says it does
Orchestrate fixing a bug — reproduce it as a failing regression test, fix to green, review, and gated commit — by delegating each phase to the matching ECC agent.
Something is **broken**: wrong output, an error, a crash, a regression.

What it does
Orchestrate fixing a bug by writing a failing regression test, fixing to green, reviewing, and committing.
Who is it for?
Fixing broken behavior - wrong output, an error, a crash, or a regression - with a reproducing regression test.
Skip if: Changing correct-but-undesired behavior (orch-change-feature) or adding a new capability (orch-add-feature).
When should I use this skill?
Something is broken: wrong output, an error, a crash, or a regression.
What you get
A reproducing regression test that fails then passes after the fix, reviewed and committed with a fix: prefix.
- Failing regression test
- fix to green
- code review and gated commit with fix: prefix
By the numbers
- Phase mask 0-(light 2)-4-5-6
- default size floor small
- commits with a fix: prefix

orch-fix-defect
Actor · action · target: orch · fix · defect. Thin wrapper over the shared engine in `orch-pipeline`.
When to Use
- Something is broken: wrong output, an error, a crash, a regression.
- Distinguish from siblings:
- behavior is correct but you want it different →
orch-change-feature. - the capability does not exist yet →
orch-add-feature.
Operation settings
- Default size floor: small (often trivial).
- Phase mask: 0 → (light 2 only if root cause is non-obvious or standard+) →
4 → 5 → 6. Research (1) is usually skipped.
- First move (phase 4): reproduce the bug as a new failing test
(regression test), then fix until it goes green. Proving the bug exists first is what separates a fix from a tweak.
How It Works
1. Run the orch-pipeline engine with the settings above. 2. If the root cause is unclear, scope it with code-explorer before the red test; escalate build breaks to build-error-resolver / /build-fix. 3. Stop at Gate 1 (only if a plan was produced) and Gate 2 (pre-commit). 4. Add security-reviewer if the defect sits in a security-sensitive path.
Example
orch-fix-defect: poller crashes on empty NWS response
→ write failing test reproducing the crash → fix to green
→ code-review → commit [GATE 2: confirm] (commit: fix:)Related skills
FAQ
What is its first move?
Reproduce the bug as a new failing regression test, then fix until it goes green.
What if the root cause is unclear?
It scopes the root cause with code-explorer before the red test and escalates build breaks to build-error-resolver or /build-fix.
