Resolve Diagnostics

ASecurity

Resolves IDE diagnostics (inspections and analyzer findings) at the `warning` or higher severity level for a given set of files, then applies the solution's code style. Use this skill when a workflow's refactoring step calls for resolving diagnostics, or when the user asks to fix warnings, inspections, or static analysis findings in specific files. Typically invoked as `/resolve-diagnostics <PATH>`.

Resolves IDE diagnostics at the `warning` or higher severity level for the given files, reformats
them to the solution's code style, then runs the tests.

## Input

One or more file or directory path arguments. Resolve them with
`${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/resolve-targets.sh <unity-project-root> <path>...` — it prints the
project-root-relative path of every `.cs` file in the solution, one per line, in the form
`lint_files`, `get_file_problems`, and `reformat_file` expect, and reports each dropped path
(docs, `.meta`, `.asmdef`, assets, files outside the solution) on stderr. Use that list as-is.

If no path argument is given, use `AskUserQuestion` to ask the user for the targets. Do not derive
targets from `git status` — that would silently widen the scope beyond what was requested.

If the script exits with code 3, stop and report that — there is nothing to resolve.

## Workflow

### Step 1: Load the Coding Guide

1. Load the `code-writing-guide` skill — do not rely on automatic skill triggering. Every fix
   applied in Step 2 must follow it.
2. Read its `resources/diagnostics-review-feedback.md` before deciding any diagnostic in Step 2.

Never leave a `warning`-or-higher diagnostic unaddressed — each one is either fixed or explicitly
suppressed per the criteria just read.

### Step 2: Resolve Diagnostics

Resolve diagnostics at the `warning` or higher severity level, collecting them for all resolved
files via `lint_files` rather than one file at a time. By default the tools also return
`suggestion`- and `hint`-level results — those are out of scope, with one exception: a
`suggestion`-level diagnostic related to performance (execution speed, memory allocation, boxing,
etc.) should be considered for fixing too, though it never requires suppression when declined.
Both `lint_files` and its fallback `get_file_problems` require Rider 2026.2 or later.

1. `lint_files` — pass every resolved file in one call
   - If the call errors, fall back to `get_file_problems`, called once per file
   - On a `timedOut` or `more` result, retry the outstanding file(s) with `get_file_problems`
   - If a timeout persists, use `AskUserQuestion` to confirm the user is running Rider 2026.2 or
     later before retrying further
   - Files reported as not analyzed carry into Step 5 as skipped
2. Decide each diagnostic per the criteria read in Step 1, and apply all resulting changes as a
   single set per file
   - When a fix is a rename (naming-convention inspections) or a symbol removal (unused-member
     findings), apply it via `rename_refactoring` / `safe_delete` so references are updated across
     the solution

Do not use `mcp__ide__getDiagnostics` (limited to files open in editor tabs) or the Unity compiler
output (does not reflect `.editorconfig` severity settings).

### Step 3: Reformat

Call `reformat_file` once with the full list of files resolved in Input (not one call per file),
passing `rootFolder` as the project/solution root.

### Step 4: Run Tests

If any file was modified in Step 2 — a fix or a suppression — load the `run-tests` skill (do not
rely on automatic skill triggering) and run the tests for the affected assemblies, then confirm they
still pass. Step 3's reformatting alone does not change behavior, so skip this step when Step 2
applied no changes.

### Step 5: Report Suppressions and Known-Issue Items

If any diagnostic was suppressed rather than fixed, list each one for the user together with its
reason. The suppression site itself already carries a "why not" comment per the Step 1 criteria.

Also list any files skipped in Step 2 as not analyzed, together with the reason given.

Also list any diagnostics handled under the Gotchas below, each with the user-verification request
described there.

## Gotchas

Suppression comment format:

- The `// ReSharper disable once <InspectionName>` form works only for ReSharper's built-in
  inspections (e.g., `RedundantEmptySwitchSection`) — it has no effect on Roslyn analyzer
  diagnostics. To suppress an analyzer diagnostic, wrap the code in
  `#pragma warning disable <ID>` / `#pragma warning restore <ID>` using the analyzer's
  diagnostic ID (e.g., `NUnit2007`).

Known issues in `lint_files` / `get_file_problems` as of Rider 2026.2.1:

- [RIDER-142275](https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/RIDER-142275): inspections from ReSharper
  plugins are returned with an empty description. Do not guess what such a diagnostic means or
  attempt a fix — leave it as is, and in Step 5 ask the user to open the file in the editor and
  check what the inspection actually reports (e.g., whether it is a complexity finding).
- [RIDER-142276](https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/RIDER-142276): Roslyn analyzer diagnostics
  that are already suppressed in source are still reported. Once a `#pragma warning disable` for
  the diagnostic is in place, treat it as resolved and move on even if the tools keep reporting
  it — do not re-fix or re-suppress. In Step 5, ask the user to confirm the suppression is
  effective in the editor.
