vibe-wave-based-remediation

When you have 50 issues, don't fix them randomly. Attack in waves.

When to Use This Skill

• 10+ bugs, issues, or gaps to fix
• After an audit or review that produced many findings
• After vibe-spec-vs-code-audit reveals many gaps
• Technical debt cleanup with many items

When NOT to Use This Skill

• Fewer than 5 issues (just fix them sequentially)
• All issues are the same priority (no need to wave)
• Issues are all in one file (batch-fix is simpler)

Steps

1. Triage all issues into priority:

   • P0 — Blocker: Breaks core functionality, security vulnerability, data loss risk
   • P1 — High: Wrong behavior, significant UX issue, missing critical feature
   • P2 — Medium: Incomplete implementation, minor bugs, documentation gaps
   • P3 — Low: Polish, optimization, nice-to-have improvements

2. Group into waves:

   • Wave 0: All P0 issues (fix immediately, before anything else)
   • Wave 1: All P1 issues, grouped by affected module/file for efficiency
   • Wave 2: P2 issues, parallelizable groups
   • Wave 3: P3 issues (may defer to backlog)

3. Execute each wave:

   • Fix all issues in the wave
   • Run tests after the wave
   • Verify fixes don't introduce regressions
   • Commit the wave as a logical unit
   • Do NOT start Wave N+1 until Wave N passes tests

4. Track progress:
