Summary

  • Add shep doctor top-level CLI command that lets users report operational failures, auto-creates GitHub issues on shep-ai/cli, optionally invokes an AI agent to attempt a fix, and opens a PR with the proposed fix
  • Supports both maintainers (direct push to shep-ai/cli) and external contributors (auto-fork + cross-fork PR) via push access auto-detection
  • Collects diagnostic context (recent failed agent runs, CLI version, system info) to produce structured bug reports

Changes

Domain Layer (TypeSpec)

  • New DoctorDiagnosticReport, FailedRunSummary, and SystemInfo value objects in TypeSpec
  • Extended WorkflowConfig with doctorMaxFixAttempts setting

Application Layer

  • New DoctorDiagnoseUseCase orchestrating the full diagnose → issue → clone/fork → agent fix → PR flow
  • New service interfaces: IGitHubIssueCreatorService (issue creation), IGitHubPermissionService (push access check), IDoctorRepositoryService (clone/fork management)

Infrastructure Layer

  • GitHubIssueCreatorService — wraps gh issue create with error mapping (not found, auth, network)
  • GitHubPermissionService — checks push access via gh api repos/.../permissions
  • DoctorRepositoryService — handles clone, fork, branch creation, and cleanup

Presentation Layer

  • doctor.command.ts — Commander.js command with [description] positional arg, --fix/--no-fix/--workdir options
  • Interactive prompt fallback when no description argument provided
  • Progress spinners and result display (issue URL, PR URL)

DI Container

  • All new services and use case registered in container.ts

Test Coverage

  • 11 unit tests for GitHubIssueCreatorService (success paths, error mapping, cause preservation)
  • 24 unit tests for DoctorDiagnoseUseCase (diagnostic collection, issue creation, maintainer/contributor flows, agent invocation, graceful degradation, temp dir cleanup)
  • 28 unit tests for doctor CLI command (structure, prerequisites, description collection, fix gate flags, workdir, result display, error handling)
  • 19 integration tests for doctor workflow (end-to-end maintainer flow, contributor flow, issue-only flow, failure graceful degradation, service ordering)

Total: 82 new tests, all passing

Test plan

  • pnpm build compiles without errors
  • pnpm validate (lint + format + typecheck + tsp) passes
  • pnpm test:unit — all 4619 tests pass (336 test files)
  • CI pipeline passes all checks

Evidence

Area Evidence
TypeSpec types DoctorDiagnosticReport, FailedRunSummary, SystemInfo value objects generated correctly
CLI registration shep doctor registered as top-level command, --help shows all options
Unit tests 82/82 passing across service, use case, and command layers
Integration tests 19/19 passing covering both maintainer and contributor flows
Build Clean compilation with no errors

Spec: specs/073-shep-doctor/

Address user feedback: shep doctor now supports both shep maintainers (who
push directly to shep-ai/cli without forking) and external contributors
(who fork first). Uses gh api permission check to auto-detect push access
and select the appropriate flow automatically.

Add tests for checkPushAccess (true/false/error fallback paths),
forkRepository (new fork, existing fork, error handling), and
createPrFromArgs (same-repo, cross-fork with --repo flag, error
handling). All three methods were implemented in phase 2 and now
have comprehensive test coverage.

… and fix workflow

Implement DoctorDiagnoseUseCase orchestrating the full shep doctor workflow:
- Collect diagnostics (failed agent runs, CLI version, system info)
- Create structured GitHub issue on shep-ai/cli
- Auto-detect push access for maintainer vs contributor flow
- Clone/fork repo, invoke AI agent, commit and create PR
- Graceful degradation on failures, temp directory cleanup

24 unit tests covering both flows, edge cases, and NFR compliance.

fix(ci): attempt 1/10 — sync generated output.ts with typespec compiler
1ac4c2e 
TypeSpec compiler v0.60.1 now emits double-quoted strings in enum
values. Regenerated output.ts to match current compiler output and
prevent freshness check failures.
