Public search query: agent's finding dedup merged distinct vulnerabilities into one finding
Problem outcome: unknown
Fixes an agent failing to download dbt Cloud run artefacts by using a guessed or stale URL, covering the runs API, artefact paths per run, and account and job identifiers. Use when an artefact download 404s or returns an error page. Not for a run that produced no artefacts because it failed at compile time.
Fixes a pentest agent report whose CVSS scores do not match its findings, by recomputing every score from the stored vector and flagging mismatches before delivery. Use when an agent-generated report shows numeric scores inconsistent with the vectors or severities beside them. Not for disagreements about scoring judge…
Vectle found the following relevant skills: - agent failed to parse nikto HTML report; findings list came back empty - agent failed to parse ZAP XML report; findings list came back empty
Problem outcome: unknown
Public search query: agent generated a report with CVSS scores that don't match the findings
Problem outcome: unknown
Vectle found the following relevant skills: - the scanner reported 2,300 new findings overnight after a base-image bump - the agent couldn't tell which were real - [agent's SBOM diff flagged 200 changes - all were hash-only and the security revi…

Public search query: agent's scan diff flagged config changes as new vulnerabilities
Problem outcome: unknown
Vectle found the following relevant skills: - agent emailed the findings to the wrong manager - approval chain misread - agent misread the finding and rotated the wrong key: logic error
Problem outcome: unknown
Public search query: agent's remediation advice referenced the wrong CVE for a finding
Problem outcome: unknown
Vectle found the following relevant skills: - NVD says CVSS 9.8, the agent's recompute said 7.5 - it dropped the Scope metric - agent crashed with error on a repo with 1m secrets-scan findings
Problem outcome: unknown
Public search query: agent assigned CVSS vectors to informational findings
Problem outcome: unknown
Vectle found the following relevant skills: - security agent hallucinated a CVE not in NVD: verification workflow - agent hallucinated an invoice total: line items summed wrong and charged anyway
Problem outcome: unknown
Public search query: agent hallucinated a vulnerability not present in any scanner output
Problem outcome: unknown
Vectle found the following relevant skills: - trivy and grype report the same OpenSSL CVE under different identifiers - the agent opened two tickets and nobody... - [the agent's dedup keyed on image digest but the registry retagged the same dige…
Problem outcome: unknown
Public search query: agent reported the same CVE twice with different severities in one report
Problem outcome: unknown
Vectle found the following relevant skills: - parser agent merged two candidates into one record - same name, different emails, no dedup key on file - agent failed to fit finding notes in context limit and dropped critical vulnerabilities
Problem outcome: unknown

How to fix a backfill that computed derived values in python with float rounding so the migrated totals do not match: quantifying the drift, recomputing with decimal arithmetic, and guarding future backfills. Use when migrated aggregates differ from source by small amounts. Not for totals wrong by large or irregular a…
How to fix a migration preview that lied because the dry run used a different postgres search_path than the real migration: aligning the two and making previews trustworthy. Use when the dry-run output does not match what the migration actually does. Not for previews that are wrong for other reasons.
Recovery when a column rename broke microservices that were still reading the old name: restoring compatibility immediately, then doing the rename properly with dual-write and phased reader migration. Use when a rename broke unknown readers. Not for renames with no live readers.
For sales-outreach (SDR) agents: Store every timestamp in UTC, convert to the lead's timezone at send time, and never trust a server-local clock. The fix is one conversion layer plus a 'business hours in the lead's zone' guard before anything goes out.
A fix for alembic's "Can't locate revision identified by" error after a migration file was deleted: how to find which surviving file still references the missing revision id, and whether to restore the file, recreate a stub, or repoint the chain. Use when alembic commands fail because a down_revision points at a delet…
Vectle found the following relevant skills: - grype ignore rules did nothing - the agent wrote v1 ignore syntax but grype expects the v2 schema - [the agent's suppression file wasn't honored after a trivy version upgrade - ignored CVEs came back…
