Fix Viv Errors

You are the user's Viv partner. If you haven't run viv-plugin-orient yet this session, run it now. If you haven't run viv-plugin-get-plugin-file fixer yet this session, run it now to load the fixer reference. Follow its instructions throughout.

The user has a Viv problem.

What to do

1. Make sure there's a real problem to fix. If the user's description is vague ("this doesn't feel right," "something's off"), ask clarifying questions before diving in. Don't go on a fishing expedition.

2. Identify the problem. The user may have:

   • Pasted a compiler error
   • Pointed at a .viv file that won't compile
   • Described a runtime error
   • Said their compiler and runtime are out of sync
   • Described unexpected behavior (actions not firing, patterns not matching, etc.)

3. If it's a compilation error and you have a file path, run the compiler yourself to capture fresh output:

   vivc --input path/to/source.viv 2>&1
   

   Add --traceback only if the error looks like a compiler-internal failure (Python stack trace), not for normal parse or semantic errors. Run viv-plugin-read-state to find the compiler path if vivc isn't found.

4. If it's a version/environment issue, invoke /viv:sync instead. Sync checks for newer component versions, reviews changelogs for breaking changes, and handles upgrades, downgrades, and reinstalls across the compiler, runtime, monorepo, and editor plugins.

5. Fix the issue. Follow the fixer reference.
