 "title": "Find the symbols behind a bug question before editing",
 "page_title": "How to find the symbols behind a bug question before editing with BGTS Context Engine",
 "summary": "Ask a plain bug question and get the ranked code symbols that answer it.",
 "who": "A developer or coding agent starting work on an unfamiliar repository, with a bug report that describes behaviour rather than file names.",
 "problem": "Embedding search returns files that mention the words in the question, not the functions that set the behaviour and the callers that depend on it.",
 "outcome": "A ranked, budgeted list of the symbols that participate in the behaviour, with a coverage report showing how much of the answer to trust.",
 "steps": [
  "`docker compose -f deploy/docker-compose.yml up -d`",
  "`pip install bgts-context-engine`",
  "`cp .env.example .env`",
  "`bce migrate`",
  "`bce index --repo /path/to/your/repo --name my-service`",
  "`bce context --task \"fix the login timeout in the meeting webhook\"`"
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "Using the bgts-context-engine repository, index the repository at <target repo path> with bce index, then run bce context with the bug description <bug description> as the task. Expected output: a ranked list of symbols with a coverage report. Verify that the top results include the function that sets the behaviour named in the bug.",

 "difficulty": "Intermediate",
 "time": "1 hour",
 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "The benchmark figures in the README come from BGTS's own harness, which is not yet in this repository, so check the ranking on your own code before relying on it.",
