Based on the approved diagnosis, propose the smallest change that addresses the demonstrated root cause. Identify the exact files, settings, processes, records, or resources affected; expected result; risks; rollback; and tests. Do not combine cleanup, modernization, and unrelated improvements with the repair.

Wait for Pilot in Command approval. After approval, apply only that correction, preserve a reviewable diff and command record, and run the minimal reproduction followed by relevant regression, denied-path, health, and user-interface checks.

Compare before-and-after evidence. State whether the original failure is fixed, merely masked, intermittent, or still unexplained. Report side effects, remaining uncertainty, monitoring needs, and whether temporary diagnostics must be removed. Do not declare success solely because the error message disappeared.
