🛠 PATCH & PROVE · NATIVE

Repair the field-note outbox

Finding a bug is only half the story. Change the repair rules, then test whether your patch fixes the failure and keeps valid behaviour working. Every run starts with fresh simulated data.

Contract: Keep notes saved offline. Reconnect and repeated sync of the same note must upload exactly one copy. Normal online saves must still work.

Build your repair
Run the starting rules to uncover the failure, then try a repair.
