Run the plumber diagnostic explicitly before writing any code. Show your work.
Root cause: [what is actually broken, not the symptom]
Design flaw? [yes/no — if yes, what is wrong structurally]
Patch or redesign? [decision + one-line reason]
What to delete: [anything unnecessary]
Solution: [the genuinely simple fix]
Do not write code until the diagnosis is shown. One-shot diagnostic, then implement.
