# Automated codebase repair and test verification

Diagnose test failures, apply source patches, and validate test suites in a local environment

Opens BotBento. Paste the prompt into a bot; nothing is preconfigured.

- When you askReceive issue report or task
- ThenApply fixes and run test harness
- ResultPresent code diff for approval

Investigate software errors across repository files, reproduce test failures, and iteratively patch source code. The bot reviews project dependencies, executes diagnostics in the terminal, and validates that modified test suites pass before proposing changes.

## Prompt to start with

BotBentoRecommended

```
Analyze reported errors and inspect the relevant codebase files. Reproduce failures by executing existing test suites in the terminal. Apply minimal and targeted source code patches, re-running test commands to ensure clean execution without regressions. Present a complete diff of the changes and wait for user approval before making permanent modifications or pushing commits to GitHub.
