doc-brd-fixer

doc-brd-fixer

Purpose

Read the latest audit report and apply fixes to a BRD, bridging ../doc-brd-audit/SKILL.md and a passing BRD so the audit↔fix cycle can converge.

Layer: 1 (BRD quality improvement). Upstream: the BRD document + BRD-NN.A_audit_report_vNNN.md. Downstream: the fixed BRD + BRD-NN.F_fix_report_vNNN.md.

When to Use

After doc-brd-audit returns FAIL, as part of an Audit → Fix → Audit loop. Do not use without an audit report (run the audit first) or to create a new BRD (use ../doc-brd/SKILL.md / ../doc-brd-autopilot/SKILL.md).

Input Contract

Consume the latest BRD-NN.A_audit_report_vNNN.md. Back up the BRD before editing (tmp/backup/BRD-NN_<ts>/); on error, restore. Element-ID standards come from framework/governance/ID_NAMING_STANDARDS.md; structure rules from framework/layers/01_BRD/BRD-TEMPLATE.yaml and README.md.

Fix Phases

Run in order; later phases assume the earlier ones succeeded.

Phase	Scope	Representative actions
0 — Structure	nested-folder rule	move BRD into docs/01_BRD/BRD-NN_{slug}/; rename folder to match ID; fix relative links after the move
1 — Missing files	referenced-but-absent	create glossary / GAP / reference placeholders from templates
2 — Links	broken/abs paths	recompute relative paths; convert absolute → relative
3 — Element IDs	legacy/invalid IDs	re-derive BRD.NN.SS.xxxx (section number + content hash); drop legacy BRD.NN.xxxx, numeric type-codes, FR-XXX/BO-XXX prefixes
4 — Content	placeholders, missing subsections	fill template dates; normalize MVP subsection headings in place; safe sibling renumbering; flag [TODO]/[TBD] for manual completion
5 — References	traceability	add missing @ref: tags; fix cross-BRD paths; update the traceability matrix
6 — Upstream	metadata + drift	fix deliverable_type/document_type/upstream_mode; when upstream_mode: "ref", apply tiered drift merge (below)

Element ID re-derivation: key = "{doc_id}:{section_id}:{title}:{description}"; ID = BRD.{doc_id}.{section_id}.<first 4 hex of SHA256(key)> (extend to 8 on collision). Document-level refs (SPEC-NN, ADR-NN, IPLAN-NN) stay in dash form.

Tiered upstream drift (only when upstream_mode: "ref"): <5% change → Tier 1 auto-merge (patch bump); 5–15% → Tier 2 auto-merge + detailed changelog (minor bump); >15% → Tier 3 archive current + regenerate via autopilot (major bump). Never delete upstream-removed content — mark [DEPRECATED] and retain for traceability. Record results in .drift_cache.json.

Confidence Classification

Tag every applied fix and surface counts in the report:

Confidence	Meaning
auto-safe	deterministic, low semantic risk (link/path, header normalize, ID conversion)
auto-assisted	template insertion with partial assumptions (scaffolded tables/subsections)
manual-required	domain content cannot be inferred (unresolved TODO/TBD, strategy rationale)

Content-Preservation Rules

• Never delete existing business content; insert template blocks only where a section is missing or below minimum structure.
• Normalize equivalent headings in place rather than duplicating sections.
• Renumber only within the same section file; flag if a cross-reference anchor would break.

Fix Report Format

Write BRD-NN.F_fix_report_vNNN.md with: Summary (issues in / fixed / remaining; files created / modified) · Fixes Applied (code, issue, fix, file, confidence) · Manual-Review Queue · Validation After Fix (score/errors/warnings before→after) · Cleanup Summary (delete superseded fix reports) · Next Steps (re-run doc-brd-audit). Loop until score ≥ threshold or max iterations reached.

Adaptation

Before applying fixes, read the project adaptation profile (.aidoc/profile.yaml). Honor section_toggles: do not reintroduce an optional section the project has toggled off. Ignore any unknown or out-of-surface key. Authority: framework/governance/ADAPTATION.md.
