Apply selected fixes from an /age report, findings list, or CI failure. Run the project gates and hand a clean result to /plate. Use when the user wants selected findings resolved. Do not use for review, test authoring, or direct publication.

/cure Use this skill after /age , failed validation, or a request to fix selected review findings. Phase entry Run python3 skills/cure/scripts/cure.pyz wheypoint resolve ref <slug . authoritative uses the record; its working context is the first batched tilth read . not found proceeds cold; legacy shows its source and slug, then proceeds. gated , ambiguous , and error stop and show the payload. Show advisory stale commit and grounded path missing findings. Inputs Accept an /age slug, a pasted findings list, a CI failure summary, or a scoped fix instruction. After phase entry, /cure <slug reads .cheese/age/<slug .md . Adopt a locked selection from /age or /affinage . The canonical format is in references/selection.md handoff from age . Otherwise, apply the recommended composite from references/selection.md . That file also defines the selection gate conditions. Older Age reports can omit finding fields or confidence . Read references/selection.md § Older report shape before you select from these reports. Do not reject a report because it lacks these fields. Optional flags: safe — Restore the selection gate and the final publication gate. open pr — Permit /plate to publish when no PR exists. auto — Use automatic mode from /cook auto . Skip user selection. Require stake <floor . /cook auto always passes medium+ . stake <floor — Set the severity floor for auto . Accept blocker , high , medium+ , or all . Ignore this flag without auto . hard — Pass the metacognitive gate flag to /plate . Read references/selection.md for selection rules. Read Auto mode for the pass cap and revert behavior. Read hard mode for the metacognitive gate. Read [ harness portability.md ](../cheese/references/harness portability.md) for portability rules. Slash commands are host renderings, not the control model. Flow 1. Load. Read handoff context.source report first when the handoff supplies it. Confirm that the file exists and belongs to the named source skill . Stop with status: halt: unreadable source report when this check fails. Read .cheese/age/<slug .md when the handoff supplies only a slug. Take the typed path only when the handoff also supplies a CurdPlan . Call validate curd plan on that plan. Stop before dispatch when the plan or its digest is invalid. Do not rebuild a plan from a legacy manifest. Take the report path in every other case. 2. Select. Adopt a locked selection from /age or /affinage . Otherwise, apply the recommended composite. Read references/selection.md for verbs and gate conditions. Expand a user verb with this command: Use the same bundle command when the host only ships the bundle. 3. Apply. Fix one logical group at a time. Confirm each anchor with a fresh bounded read. The report path stops here and continues at step 4. The typed path also invokes easy cheese.shared.workflow.cure with the validated plan. Add one CureDiagnosisBinding for each selected curd. Create each binding with bind diagnosis(plan, curd, diagnosis result) . Use only a confirmed DiagnosisResult . Point the binding to the exact plan and curd digest. Set DiagnosisDisposition.CONFIRMED . A plausible but unrelated diagnosis does not unlock Cure. cure resolves each ArtifactRef with resolve artifact . It accepts only observation only CurdResultWriterView output. It uses normalize agent output to finalize one CurdResult per selected curd. It also finalizes executor failures. 4. Validate. Run the narrowest test that proves each fix. Then run the relevant project gates. These gates include lint, type checks, and builds. When the handoff has a baseline: block, use [ quality gates.md ](../cook/references/quality gates.md). Identical baseline failures do not block a clean cure or trigger a halt. Fix only new or changed failures. 5. Taste test behavioral fixes. Run the fresh context taste test before you write the handoff slug. Resolve the read only reviewer (taste test) phase agent through [ agent resolution.md ](../cheese/references/agent resolution.md). Request default minimum power and medium effort. Use the Cook review lenses over the cure diff. Halt when fresh context isolation is unavailable. Use an inline self check only under the small diff cost gate in [ tdd loop.md ](../cook/references/tdd loop.md). Skip this step for formatting, comments, imports, and logic free renames. Send a revise verdict into one bounded correction pass. Stop for a human on a Locked decision halt . A nested coder defers the authoritative review to the orchestrator. 6. Correct the domain model. Correct only terms that the Cook diff touches. Read references/domain model correction.md first. Do not reverse a canonical term that Mold locked. 7. Hand off for review. Recommend /age <slug scope <touched path . Repeat scope once for each touched path. Send the current slug with every Age dispatch. Forward hard when the run has that flag. Do not duplicate the Age review inside Cure. A new Age report can start a new /cure run. 8. Write the report. Record changes, checks, deferred items, and residual risks. Put the handoff slug at the top of .cheese/cure/<slug .md . 9. Write back the durable facts. Run § Post PR write back before publication. Give each written path to /plate for its artifact inventory. 10. Hand off for publication. Dispatch /plate after a clean cure. Follow Handoff . Preferred tools and fallbacks Route source work through [ code intelligence routing.md ](../cheese/references/code intelligence routing.md). Use its fallback when a preferred tool is absent. Stop only when the fallback cannot support a safe fix. Report the precision loss. Validation Run the narrowest test that proves each fix. Then run all relevant existing gates. Record why an unavailable gate cannot run. Do not declare readiness while selected findings remain unresolved. Move a finding to Applied only after its proving test passes. Read references/cure discipline.md for the Iron Law. A clean cure has at least one applied fix and all gates pass. It also has no false premise halt. Identical baseline: failures do not count against green status. Read [ quality gates.md ](../cook/references/quality gates.md). The agent judges the gate values. The CLI maps those values to a readiness verdict: Use the same bundle command when the host only ships the bundle. Handoff slug Write the report to .cheese/cure/<slug .md . Put this minimum handoff slug at the top: The [handback contract](../cheese/references/handback contract.md) defines the status: grammar. Only next: and the additional keyed lines are specific to this phase. artifact: names the source report that this run consumed. Use handoff context.source report for that value, or the resolved .cheese/age/<slug .md path. Write the report body to a separate file. Then let the canonical writer create .cheese/cure/<slug .md once. Pass every optional field that this run has. Use a second command for the terminal state. Omit payload schema , because a terminal transition rejects a payload schema. Omit baseline and durable flags when this run has no such value. phase=cure controls storage routing. next declares the following phase, and the writer validates that transition. Use status: ok when at least one finding applies cleanly. Use it when no finding meets the auto severity floor. Use status: halt: <reason when every selected fix fails evaluation. Use it when a project gate cannot pass. Use next: age when review follows. This value is the default for automatic and interactive runs. Use next: done only for an interactive run without auto . The user must also decline review explicitly. Cure does not track the current pass. /age auto enforces the two cure pass cap on its third invocation. Output Use [ formatting.md ](../cheese/references/formatting.md). Below the slug, add the exact headings Applied , Deferred , Checks , and Re review . Bind <slug to the stem of the consumed source report. When source skill is /affinage , end each result line with [from comment:<id ] . Include finding IDs, evidence, residual risk, and the next command. Use /age <slug scope <touched path or /plate as that command. Handoff Pipeline: culture → mold → cook → press → age → [cure] → plate After the report exists, decide whether to dispatch /plate or ask. A clean cure updates an open PR without another gate by default. safe restores the handoff gate. When /affinage started the run, never dispatch /plate from Cure. This state uses handoff context.source skill: /affinage . Apply the fixes and run the automatic Age loop when required. Then return control to /affinage . It posts the GitHub replies before it dispatches /plate . Default without safe : With an open PR, dispatch /plate [ hard] . It performs its final write gate, commit, topology update, and publication. With no open PR, use open pr to dispatch /plate [ hard] . In this case, explicit topology choices and obviously cohesive work proceed without asking. In other cases, stack sized or ambiguous work asks before commit or branch layout mutation. Without open pr , leave the remote unchanged. Report no open PR — pass open pr or run /plate . Run § Post PR write back before every /plate dispatch. Skip /plate when the cure is not clean. Report the blocker and stop. With safe , use the shared [handoff gate](../cheese/references/handoff gate.md). Offer these choices: Review the touched code. Run /age <slug scope <touched path . Recommend this choice when fixes extend beyond the finding hunk. Plate it. Run /plate [ hard] to commit and publish. Checkpoint and stop. Run /wheypoint . Stop. Dispatch nothing. Preselect Plate it only when all selected fixes and gates pass. Run the selected command immediately. Post PR write back Read references/post pr writeback.md before any path publishes to a PR. This includes default, open pr , safe , and automatic publication paths. The file defines candidates, writers, fallback behavior, ownership, and the empty case. hard mode /cure hard passes hard to /plate . /plate completes and verifies every durable write. It then gives /hard cheese the final artifact inventory. Stop publication on a FAILED gate result. Stop publication when a non TTY environment blocks the gate. An ERROR result uses the hard cheese fail open policy, and publication continues. Review, checkpoint, and stop choices skip this gate. Read skills/hard cheese/SKILL.md and ../hard cheese/references/composition.md . Auto mode Read references/auto mode.md before auto mode. It defines selection, validation, reversion, Age limits, flag forwarding, publication, and Cook worker exceptions. It also defines the auto hard puncture clause. Rules Use the recommended composite or the locked selection by default. safe restores the gate. Pause for false premise, sprawling, structural, or conflicting findings. Keep fixes within the selected findings. Do not fix failures identical to the baseline. Report failed and skipped checks. Put reverted automatic findings under Deferred . Follow Handoff for every publication decision. Never publish an unclean cure. Stop before you apply a finding that rests on a false premise. Report why the Age claim is wrong or obsolete. Apply the shared voice rules from ../age/references/voice.md . Lead with the applied changes. Mark residual risk as certain speculating don't know . Do not invent follow up work for a correct diff. Identify the gate command before you claim status: ok
