Fix with AI (Safe Workflow)

Learn how Fix with AI generates safe, reviewable patches without applying uncontrolled automatic changes.

## Fix with AI (Safe Workflow)

Fix with AI helps teams resolve issues faster without sacrificing safety or control.

Instead of applying automatic fixes, SyntaxValid generates reviewable, scoped patches that developers can inspect and approve.

---

## Why SyntaxValid avoids auto-fix

Uncontrolled auto-fixes introduce new risks:

- Behavior changes without review

- Incomplete understanding of project context

- Hidden side effects in critical paths

SyntaxValid treats fixes as engineering decisions, not mechanical actions.

---

## What Fix with AI does

Fix with AI:

- Analyzes the issue context

- Generates a focused patch proposal

- Explains why the change resolves the issue

- Keeps the fix limited to the affected scope

Nothing is applied automatically.

---

## Fix groups and scope control

Related issues may belong to the same fix group.

Fix groups ensure that:

- Related problems are fixed together

- Changes remain coherent

- The scope stays minimal and reviewable

This prevents fragmented or conflicting fixes.

---

## How the Fix with AI workflow works

1. Select an issue or fix group

2. Review the AI-generated patch

3. Inspect the explanation and affected files

4. Apply manually or create a pull request

5. Re-run analysis to confirm resolution

The developer remains in full control at every step.
