/fix-bitcoin

Fix the highest priority Bitcoin issue.

What This Does

• Invoke /check-bitcoin to audit Bitcoin setup

• Identify highest priority issue

• Fix that one issue

• Verify the fix

• Report what was done

This is a fixer. It fixes one issue at a time. Run again for next issue. Use /bitcoin for full lifecycle.

Process

1. Run Primitive

Invoke /check-bitcoin skill to get prioritized findings.

2. Fix Priority Order

Fix in this order:

• P0: Node not synced, wallet not encrypted

• P1: Missing testnet/mainnet separation

• P2: UTXO consolidation needed

• P3: Advanced features

3. Execute Fix

Node not synced (P0): Check sync status:

bitcoin-cli getblockchaininfo

If headers

blocks , wait or restart:

bitcoin-cli stop bitcoind -daemon

Wallet not encrypted (P0): Encrypt wallet:

bitcoin-cli encryptwallet "strong-passphrase"

Back up:

bitcoin-cli backupwallet /path/to/backup.dat

Missing testnet/mainnet separation (P1): Split configs:

bitcoin.conf

mainnet=1

[test] testnet=1 walletdir=/var/lib/bitcoin/testnet-wallets

Use explicit network flags in tooling:

bitcoin-cli -testnet getblockchaininfo

UTXO consolidation needed (P2): List small UTXOs:

bitcoin-cli listunspent 1 9999999

Create consolidation tx:

bitcoin-cli createrawtransaction '[{"txid":"...","vout":0}]' '{"bc1q...":0.999}'

Sign and send:

bitcoin-cli signrawtransactionwithwallet <hex> bitcoin-cli sendrawtransaction <hex>

4. Verify

After fix:

bitcoin-cli getblockchaininfo bitcoin-cli getwalletinfo

5. Report

Fixed: [P0] Wallet not encrypted

Updated: bitcoin.conf

• Added wallet encryption requirement
• Added backup path

Verified: bitcoin-cli getwalletinfo → encrypted

Next highest priority: [P0] Node not synced Run /fix-bitcoin again to continue.

Branching

Before making changes:

git checkout -b fix/bitcoin-$(date +%Y%m%d)

Single-Issue Focus

Bitcoin ops are high risk. Fix one thing at a time:

• Test each change thoroughly

• Easy to roll back specific fixes

• Clear audit trail for keys and funds

Run /fix-bitcoin repeatedly to work through the backlog.
