sweeper-fix

Implement or plan a VS Code Sweeper agent-ready issue — fetch the sweeper's review record from its state repo, write the plan file, implement the change in the current vscode checkout (after the maintainer approves the plan when one is needed), validate the diff against the plan, and — after showing the diff — open a draft PR. Use ONLY when the request explicitly asks for the sweeper — "sweeper-fix", "sweeper", "vscodesweeper", a sweeper record, an agent-ready issue, or a sweeper brief. Do NOT use for a plain "fix this issue" request that doesn't mention the sweeper; fix those directly with your normal tools instead.
