fixflow

SECOND STEP in the troubleshooting workflow. Read the full content and solution of a specific Knowledge Base card.

Returns the card content WITH reliability metrics and related cards so you can assess trustworthiness and explore connected issues.

WHEN TO USE:

• Call this ONLY after obtaining a valid kb_id from the resolve_kb_id tool.

INPUT:

• kb_id: The exact ID of the card (e.g., 'CROSS_DOCKER_001').

OUTPUT:

• Returns reliability metrics followed by the full Markdown content of the card, plus related cards.

• You MUST apply the solution provided in the card to resolve the user's issue.

• After applying, you MUST call save_kb_card with outcome parameter to close the feedback loop.

FIRST STEP in any troubleshooting workflow. Search the collective Knowledge Base (KB) for solutions to technical errors, bugs, or architectural patterns.

Uses full-text search across titles, content, tags, and categories. Results are ranked by relevance and success rate.

WHEN TO USE:

• ALWAYS call this first when encountering any error message, bug, or exception.

• Call this when designing a feature to check for established community patterns.

INPUT:

• query: A specific error message, stack trace fragment, library name, or architectural concept.

• category: (Optional) Filter by category (e.g., 'devops', 'terminal', 'supabase').

OUTPUT:

• Returns a list of matching KB cards with their kb_id, titles, and success metrics.

• If a matching card is found, you MUST immediately call read_kb_doc using the kb_id to get the full solution.

WRITE to the Knowledge Base. This tool has TWO modes:

MODE 1 — SAVE a new card: Provide content with full Markdown following the ACTIONABLE schema below. MODE 2 — REPORT OUTCOME: Provide kb_id + outcome ('success' or 'failure').

WHEN TO USE:

• Mode 1: After successfully fixing a bug IF no existing KB card covered it.

• Mode 2: ALWAYS after applying a solution from read_kb_doc and running verification.

INPUT:

• content: (Mode 1) Full Markdown KB card content — follow the EXACT template below.

• overwrite: (Mode 1) Set to True to update an existing card.

• kb_id: (Mode 2) ID of the card to report outcome for.

• outcome: (Mode 2) 'success' or 'failure'.

• enrichment: (Mode 2, optional) Additional context to merge into the card when outcome is 'failure'.
