Bug Reproduction
Turn a vague bug report into a VERIFIED minimal reproduction and then a failing regression test, agent-driven end to end. Covers extracting the implicit repro from a thin report (env, build, steps, data), the reproduce-minimize-isolate-capture loop, git bisect to find the introducing commit, building a deterministic minimal repro (fixed seeds, frozen time, stubbed network), writing the failing regression test BEFORE the fix (red) and confirming the fix flips it green, and writing repro evidence back into the ticket. Distinguishes flaky-not-reproducible from environment-specific. Use when: "reproduce this bug," "minimal reproduction," "repro steps," "find the commit that broke it," "git bisect," "make the repro deterministic," "write a failing test for this bug," "regression test for a defect," "can't reproduce this bug." Not for: Classifying/deduplicating/severity-routing existing failures without reproducing them — that is ai-bug-triage. Generating tests from specs rather than from a defect — that is ai-test-generation. Related: ai-bug-triage, ai-test-generation, test-reliability, systematic-debugging, qa-project-context.
