Reproduce Bug

Look at github issue #$ARGUMENTS and read the issue description and comments.

Phase 1: Log Investigation

Think about the places it could go wrong looking at the codebase. Look for logging output to search for.

Search application logs, error tracking, and recent git history for clues:

1. Check recent commits related to the affected area
2. Search for error messages or stack traces in logs
3. Inspect the relevant code paths for potential failure points

Keep investigating until a good understanding of the situation is reached.

Phase 2: Visual Reproduction with Playwright

If the bug is UI-related or involves user flows, use Playwright to visually reproduce it:

Step 1: Verify Server is Running

mcp__plugin_soleur_pw__browser_navigate({ url: "http://localhost:3000" })
mcp__plugin_soleur_pw__browser_snapshot({})

If server not running, inform user to start bin/dev.

Step 2: Navigate to Affected Area

Based on the issue description, navigate to the relevant page:

mcp__plugin_soleur_pw__browser_navigate({ url: "http://localhost:3000/[affected_route]" })
mcp__plugin_soleur_pw__browser_snapshot({})

Step 3: Capture Screenshots

Take screenshots at each step of reproducing the bug:

mcp__plugin_soleur_pw__browser_take_screenshot({ filename: "bug-[issue]-step-1.png" })

Step 4: Follow User Flow

Reproduce the exact steps from the issue:

1. Read the issue's reproduction steps

2. Execute each step using Playwright:

   • browser_click for clicking elements
   • browser_type for filling forms
   • browser_snapshot to see the current state
   • browser_take_screenshot to capture evidence

3. Check for console errors:

   mcp__plugin_soleur_pw__browser_console_messages({ level: "error" })
   

Step 5: Capture Bug State

When the bug is reproduced:

1. Take a screenshot of the bug state
2. Capture console errors
3. Document the exact steps that triggered it

mcp__plugin_soleur_pw__browser_take_screenshot({ filename: "bug-[issue]-reproduced.png" })

Phase 3: Document Findings

Reference Collection:

• Document all research findings with specific file paths (e.g., app/services/example_service.rb:42)
• Include screenshots showing the bug reproduction
• List console errors if any
• Document the exact reproduction steps

Phase 4: Report Back

Add a comment to the issue with:

1. Findings - What was discovered about the cause
2. Reproduction Steps - Exact steps to reproduce (verified)
3. Screenshots - Visual evidence of the bug (upload captured screenshots)
4. Relevant Code - File paths and line numbers
5. Suggested Fix - If one exists

Phase 5: Cleanup

After uploading screenshots to the issue comment, remove local screenshot artifacts. Playwright MCP writes to the main repo root when invoked from a worktree.

# Remove bug reproduction screenshots from current working directory
rm -f bug-*.png

# If in a worktree, also clean the main repo root
MAIN_REPO=$(git rev-parse --show-superproject-working-tree 2>/dev/null)
if [[ -n "$MAIN_REPO" ]]; then
  rm -f "$MAIN_REPO"/bug-*.png
