ALTO Self-Fix Procedure

Procedural workflow for ALTO to fix itself via GitHub issues.

Workflow

1. Get Issue

bash
gh issue view <number> --repo gonzaloetjo/alto

Read and understand the issue requirements.

2. Create Branch

bash
git checkout -b issue-<number>-<short-description>

3. Implement

Modify ALTO source files as needed:

  • devenv.nix - Options, scripts, hooks config
  • agents/*.md - Agent prompts
  • hooks/*.py - Hook logic
  • skills/*/SKILL.md - Skills
  • templates/CLAUDE.md.* - Protocols

4. Validate

bash
nix-instantiate --parse devenv.nix > /dev/null && echo "Nix OK"
python3 -m py_compile hooks/*.py && echo "Python OK"

5. Test (if behavior change)

bash
alto-test-run --scenario <relevant> --keep --json

Skip for string/doc-only changes.

6. Update CHANGELOG

Add entry under ## [Unreleased] with issue reference.

7. Commit

bash
git add <files>
git commit -m "feat: description (#<issue>)"

8. Push & PR

bash
git push -u origin issue-<number>-<description>
gh pr create --title "feat: description (#<number>)" --body "Closes #<number>"

Notes

  • Never commit to main directly
  • changelog-check hook enforces CHANGELOG updates
  • alto-restart is blocked in dev mode
  • Changes apply next session
