What problem does it solve? Autonomous autofix pipelines waste effort and create conflicts when they attempt to fix issues that are already resolved, already claimed by another agent, or not real bugs. This Skill acts as a read-only triage gate that stops the chain cleanly before any mutation happens. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Duplicate and shipped-fix detection: Searches open and closed PRs plus base-branch commit history for references to the issue, stopping the chain when a fix is already in flight or merged. - Claim and stale-lock awareness: Reads assignee, in-progress labels, and robot claim comments with tightened 30/60-minute windows to detect work owned by another actor without ever claiming anything itself. - Real-defect verification: Briefly inspects the affected code path to confirm the reported behavior is a genuine, still-unfixed bug rather than intended behavior or user error. - Use Case: A flow runner checks out a repo on an isolated branch for issue #1234; this Skill verifies no open PR references it, no one else holds a live claim, and the bug is real, then emits either a proceed verdict or the NO_ACTION_NEEDED stop token. ## Quick Start Run the om-verify-in-repo skill with issue number 1234 to check whether the autofix chain should proceed on this repository.
