feat: /debug sub-agent escalation from /qa + recommendations in /review and /ship (v0.6.5.0) (#192)

* feat: add browse access to /debug for visual verification Debug skill can now use the browse binary to visually reproduce bugs, take screenshots as evidence, and verify fixes. This makes /debug effective for web app bugs when spawned as a sub-agent from /qa. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat: add /debug sub-agent escalation to /qa (Phase 8g) When QA fix attempts fail twice on the same bug (reverted due to regressions), /qa now spawns a /debug sub-agent with a structured bug brief including symptoms, repro steps, failed fix details, and file paths. Results are reported in Phase 10's debug escalation summary. Sequential execution: one debug investigation at a time, working tree cleaned between investigations. Graceful degradation on all failure modes (BLOCKED, agent failure → deferred in report). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat: add /debug recommendation to /review (Step 5.7) When /review finds what appears to be a pre-existing bug in the base branch (not introduced by the PR's diff), it now classifies it as INFORMATIONAL and recommends running /debug for systematic root-cause investigation. No Agent spawning — /review's scope stays on the diff. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat: add reverted QA commit detection to /ship During pre-landing review, /ship now checks for reverted fix(qa): commits in the branch history and recommends /debug for systematic investigation. Informational only — does not block shipping. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat: add debug escalation tests (validation + LLM judge + E2E) Skill validation: 11 new assertions covering Phase 8g trigger, structured handoff fields, agent result handlers, debug escalation summary, Step 5.7 recommendation, ship reverted QA detection, and debug browse setup. LLM judge: evaluates Phase 8g template quality — structured brief format, result handling, working tree cleanup, sequential processing. E2E: prompt-level deterministic test (verifies escalation prompt has all required fields) + full flow stub (fixture TODO for planted regression). Touchfile entries for diff-based test selection. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * chore: add worktree parallel debug agents to TODOS.md (P2) When /qa hits multiple stubborn bugs, parallel debug agents in isolated git worktrees could investigate simultaneously. Deferred from the sequential debug escalation PR as a follow-up. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * chore: bump version and changelog (v0.6.5.0) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat: add E2E evals for /review pre-existing bug + /ship reverted QA detection Two new E2E tests: - review-pre-existing-bug: plants SQL injection in base branch, verifies Step 5.7 classifies as INFORMATIONAL and recommends /debug - ship-reverted-qa-commits: creates branch with reverted fix(qa): commits, verifies /ship detects them and recommends /debug Also fixes qa-debug-prompt-logic to use correct workingDirectory, and ensures test repo init uses -b main for portability. All 4 debug-related evals pass: $0.34 total, 94s. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> --------- Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
