Gh Issue Fix Flow
Overview
Resolve a GitHub issue from intake through fix, validation, and push using gh, local edits, XcodeBuildMCP, and git.
Workflow
1) Intake and issue context
- Use
gh issue view <id> --repo <owner/repo> --commentsto get the full issue context. - If the repo is unclear, run
gh repo view --json nameWithOwnerto confirm. - Capture reproduction steps, expected behavior, and any maintainer notes.
2) Locate the code path
- Use
rg -nto locate likely files and entry points. - Read the relevant code paths with
sed -norrg -ncontext. - Follow repo-specific conventions (AGENTS/CLAUDE instructions).
3) Implement the fix
- Edit the minimal set of files.
- Keep changes aligned with existing architecture and style.
- Add tests when behavior changes and test coverage is practical.
4) Build and test
- Use XcodeBuildMCP for required builds/tests:
- Set defaults once:
mcp__XcodeBuildMCP__session-set-defaults. - Build:mcp__XcodeBuildMCP__build_macosormcp__XcodeBuildMCP__build_sim. - Tests: prefer targeted schemes (e.g.,mcp__XcodeBuildMCP__test_sim). - If macOS tests fail due to deployment target mismatches, run the equivalent iOS simulator tests.
- Report warnings or failures; do not hide them.
5) Commit and push
- Check for unrelated changes with
git status --short. - Stage only the fix (exclude unrelated files).
- Commit with a closing message:
Fix … (closes #<issue>). - Push with
git push.
6) Report back
- Summarize what changed and where.
- Provide test results (including failures).
- Note any follow-ups or blocked items.
