What problem does it solve?

Emergency workflows for runaway editing cascades: it stops edits, assesses damage, and hands off to a dedicated fix workflow for rapid containment and recovery.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • STOP and assess: halt changes and surface current state.
  • REVERT guidance: decide whether to revert or preserve progress and then hand off to /dso:fix-bug for investigation.
  • RESET safeguards: clear cascade counters after successful validation and provide guardrails for future tasks.

Quick Start

Activate fix-cascade-recovery on a ticket to pause edits, evaluate the cascade state, and route to /dso:fix-bug for remediation.
