Isolate suspect files and line ranges before code repair using AST skeletons and stack traces (< 300 tokens). Use before editing code to prevent full-file context dumps.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Localize faults before code repair

Isolate bugs to specific files, symbols, and line ranges before attempting code repair. Never dump entire modules or multi-thousand line files into context. Enforce a two-stage protocol: localize first (< 300 tokens), then extract only the relevant scoped slice.

## 1. Stage 1: Hierarchical Localization

Pinpoint the candidate failure site using stack trace analysis or AST structural inspection:

```bash
# Analyze failing exception traceback
python3 tools/localize_fault.py locate --traceback path/to/traceback.txt

# Inspect signatures and class outlines without reading implementation bodies
python3 tools/localize_fault.py skeleton --file path/to/suspect.py

# Find exact line bounds for a specific symbol
python3 tools/localize_fault.py symbol --file path/to/suspect.py --symbol MyClass.method_name
```

Emit a compact, structured localization finding (< 300 tokens) using standard YAML:

```yaml
fault_localization:
  file: "src/maintainer_skills/triage.py"
  symbol: "TriageClassifier.classify_issue"
  line_range: [142, 168]
  confidence: "high"
  rationale: "Unchecked KeyError when issue labels list is empty."
```
…
