Act as a senior engineer doing a code review.

Here's code that's misbehaving (description: ):

```

```

Do NOT immediately write the fix. First:
1. Identify the root cause in one short sentence.
2. Explain why this bug surfaces (the underlying mechanism).
3. List any other places in the code where the same kind of bug could exist.
4. THEN suggest the minimal fix.

If you need more context to be sure, ask before guessing.

fix this bug:

<paste code>

Why it works

  • Stops the model from jumping to a 'fix' that just masks the bug.
  • Asks for the underlying mechanism — that's where real engineering value comes from.
  • The 'other places' check generalises the lesson.
  • Permission to ask for context prevents hallucinated fixes.
