Dev UltraQA
Derived from oh-my-claudecode (MIT, Yeachan Heo). Adapted for the EvoNexus Engineering Layer.
QA cycling: keep running build/lint/test/fix loops until all checks pass — but with a circuit breaker. If the same error persists across 3 cycles, stop and report: it's a fundamental issue, not a fixable one.
Use When
- After a multi-file implementation (post-
dev-autopilot or @bolt-executor)
- Pre-merge gate when you want all checks green before review
- Refactor that touches enough files to risk regressions
Do Not Use When
- Single-file change → just run
dev-verify once
- The first failure is structural → escalate to
@apex-architect, don't loop
Workflow
Each cycle:
- Run build (
npm run build, cargo build, go build)
- Run lint (
npm run lint, cargo clippy, golangci-lint)
- Run tests (
npm test, cargo test, pytest)
- If green: done, exit cycle, hand off to
@oath-verifier for final verification
- If red: delegate to
@bolt-executor or @hawk-debugger to fix the failure
- Loop back to step 1
Circuit breaker (3-failure rule)
If the same error fingerprint (file:line + error message) appears in 3 consecutive cycles:
- STOP the loop
- Hand off to
@apex-architect with full context dump
- The issue is no longer "fix the bug" — it's "question the architecture"
Max iterations
- Default: 5 cycles
- After 5 cycles even with different errors: stop and report

## UltraQA Report
### Cycles
1. Build ❌ → fixed by @bolt-executor
2. Build ✅ Lint ❌ → fixed by @bolt-executor
3. Build ✅ Lint ✅ Tests ❌ → fixed by @hawk-debugger
4. ✅ All green
### Final State
- Build: ✅
- Lint: ✅
- Tests: ✅ N passed, 0 failed
### Handoff
- → @oath-verifier for evidence-based verification
Pairs With
@bolt-executor (fixes during cycles)@hawk-debugger (fixes when bugs are non-trivial)@oath-verifier (final verification post-cycle)@apex-architect (escalation when 3-failure breaker trips)
