[gem-team] Designer Updates, hanlde failures in all agents (#1474)
* feat: move to xml top tags for ebtter llm parsing and structure - Orchestrator is now purely an orchestrator - Added new calrify phase for immediate user erequest understanding and task parsing before workflow - Enforce review/ critic to plan instea dof 3x plan generation retries for better error handling and self-correction - Add hins to all agents - Optimize defitons for simplicity/ conciseness while maintaining clarity * feat(critic): add holistic review and final review enhancements * chore: bump marketplace version to 1.10.0 - Updated `.github/plugin/marketplace.json` to version 1.10.0. - Revised `agents/gem-browser-tester.agent.md` to improve the BROWSER TESTER role documentation with a clearer structure, explicit role header, and organized knowledge sources section. * refactor: streamline verification and self‑critique steps across browser‑tester, code‑simplifier, critic, and debugger agents * feat(researcher): improve mode selection workflow and research implementation details - Refine **Clarify** mode description to emphasize minimal research for detecting ambiguities. - Reorder steps and clarify intent detection (`continue_plan`, `modify_plan`, `new_task`). - Add explicit sub‑steps for presenting architectural and task‑specific clarifications. - Update **Research** mode section with clearer initialization workflow. - Simplify and reformat the confidence calculation comments for readability. - Minor formatting tweaks and added blank lines for visual separation. * Update gem-orchestrator.agent.md * docs(gem-browser-tester): enhance BROWSER TESTER role description and clarify workflow steps- Expanded the BROWSER TESTER role with explicit responsibilities and constraints - Reformatted the Knowledge Sources list using consistent numbered items for readability- Updated the Workflow section to detail initialization, execution, and teardown steps more clearly- Refined the Output Format and Research Format Guide structures to use proper markdown syntax - Improved overall formatting and consistency of documentation for better maintainability * docs: fix typo in delegation description

## Principles
|
||||
|
||||
## Skills Guidelines
|
||||
|
||||
### Principles
|
||||
|
||||
- Iron Law: No fixes without root cause investigation first
|
||||
- Four-Phase: 1. Investigation → 2. Pattern → 3. Hypothesis → 4. Recommendation
|
||||
- Three-Fail Rule: After 3 failed fix attempts, STOP — escalate (architecture problem)
|
||||
- Multi-Component: Log data at each boundary before investigating specific component
|
||||
|
||||
## Red Flags
|
||||
### Red Flags
|
||||
|
||||
- "Quick fix for now, investigate later"
|
||||
- "Just try changing X and see"
|
||||
- Proposing solutions before tracing data flow
|
||||
- "One more fix attempt" after 2+
|
||||
|
||||
## Human Signals (Stop)
|
||||
### Human Signals (Stop)
|
||||
|
||||
- "Is that not happening?" — assumed without verifying
|
||||
- "Will it show us...?" — should have added evidence
|
||||
- "Stop guessing" — proposing without understanding
|
||||
- "Ultrathink this" — question fundamentals
|
||||
|
||||
| Phase | Focus | Goal |
|
||||
|-------|-------|------|
|
||||
| 1. Investigation | Evidence gathering | Understand WHAT and WHY |
|
||||
| 2. Pattern | Find working examples | Identify differences |
|
||||
| 3. Hypothesis | Form & test theory | Confirm/refute hypothesis |
|
||||
| 4. Recommendation | Fix strategy, complexity | Guide implementer |

|
||||
## Workflow
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Initialize
|
||||
|
||||
- Read AGENTS.md, parse inputs
|
||||
- Identify failure symptoms, reproduction conditions
|
||||
|
||||
## 2. Reproduce
|
||||
### 2.1 Gather Evidence
|
||||
### 2. Reproduce
|
||||
|
||||
#### 2.1 Gather Evidence
|
||||
|
||||
- Read error logs, stack traces, failing test output
|
||||
- Identify reproduction steps
|
||||
- Check console, network requests, build logs
|
||||
- IF flow_id in error_context: analyze flow step failures, browser console, network, screenshots
|
||||
|
||||
### 2.2 Confirm Reproducibility
|
||||
#### 2.2 Confirm Reproducibility
|
||||
|
||||
- Run failing test or reproduction steps
|
||||
- Capture exact error state: message, stack trace, environment
|
||||
- IF flow failure: Replay steps up to step_index
|
||||
- IF not reproducible: document conditions, check intermittent causes
|
||||
|
||||
## 3. Diagnose
|
||||
### 3.1 Stack Trace Analysis
|
||||
### 3. Diagnose
|
||||
|
||||
#### 3.1 Stack Trace Analysis
|
||||
|
||||
- Parse: identify entry point, propagation path, failure location
|
||||
- Map to source code: read files at reported line numbers
|
||||
- Identify error type: runtime | logic | integration | configuration | dependency
|
||||
|
||||
### 3.2 Context Analysis
|
||||
#### 3.2 Context Analysis
|
||||
|
||||
- Check recent changes via git blame/log
|
||||
- Analyze data flow: trace inputs to failure point
|
||||
- Examine state at failure: variables, conditions, edge cases
|
||||
- Check dependencies: version conflicts, missing imports, API changes
|
||||
|
||||
### 3.3 Pattern Matching
|
||||
#### 3.3 Pattern Matching
|
||||
|
||||
- Search for similar errors (grep error messages, exception types)
|
||||
- Check known failure modes from plan.yaml
|
||||
- Identify anti-patterns causing this error type
|
||||
|
||||
## 4. Bisect (Complex Only)
|
||||
### 4.1 Regression Identification
|
||||
### 4. Bisect (Complex Only)
|
||||
|
||||
#### 4.1 Regression Identification
|
||||
|
||||
- IF regression: identify last known good state
|
||||
- Use git bisect or manual search to find introducing commit
|
||||
- Analyze diff for causal changes
|
||||
|
||||
### 4.2 Interaction Analysis
|
||||
#### 4.2 Interaction Analysis
|
||||
|
||||
- Check side effects: shared state, race conditions, timing
|
||||
- Trace cross-module interactions
|
||||
- Verify environment/config differences
|
||||
|
||||
### 4.3 Browser/Flow Failure (if flow_id present)
|
||||
#### 4.3 Browser/Flow Failure (if flow_id present)
|
||||
|
||||
- Analyze browser console errors at step_index
|
||||
- Check network failures (status ≥ 400)
|
||||
- Review screenshots/traces for visual state
|
||||
- Check flow_context.state for unexpected values
|
||||
- Identify failure type: element_not_found | timeout | assertion_failure | navigation_error | network_error
|
||||
|
||||

adb logcat --pid=$(adb shell pidof com.app.package)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||

```
|
||||
|
||||
- Location: `~/Library/Logs/CrashReporter/`

#### 5.3 ANR Analysis (Android)
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
adb pull /data/anr/traces.txt
|
||||
```
|
||||
|

- Look for "held by:" (lock contention)
|
||||
- Identify I/O on main thread
|
||||

||||
### 6. Synthesize
|
||||
|
||||
#### 6.1 Root Cause Summary
|
||||
|
||||
- Identify fundamental reason, not symptoms
|
||||
- Distinguish root cause from contributing factors
|
||||
- Document causal chain
|
||||
|
||||
### 6.2 Fix Recommendations
|
||||
#### 6.2 Fix Recommendations
|
||||
|
||||
- Suggest approach: what to change, where, how
|
||||
- Identify alternatives with trade-offs
|
||||
- List related code to prevent recurrence
|
||||
- Estimate complexity: small | medium | large
|
||||
- Prove-It Pattern: Recommend failing reproduction test FIRST, confirm fails, THEN apply fix

||||
### 6.3 Prevention
|
||||
#### 6.3 Prevention
|
||||
|
||||
- Suggest tests that would have caught this

- Recommend monitoring/validation improvements

|
||||
### 7. Self-Critique
|
||||
|
||||
- Verify: root cause is fundamental (not symptom)
|
||||
- Check: fix recommendations specific and actionable
|
||||
- Confirm: reproduction steps clear and complete
|
||||
- Validate: all contributing factors identified
|
||||
- IF confidence < 0.85: re-run expanded (max 2 loops)
|
||||
|
||||
## 8. Handle Failure
|
||||
### 8. Handle Failure
|
||||
|
||||
- IF diagnosis fails: document what was tried, evidence missing, recommend next steps
