| In a sentence· 一句话 | Verify the live deploy before users tell you it is broken. 抢在用户之前，确认这次上线真的没问题。 | Open the product, try the flow, fix what breaks, repeat. 打开产品走一遍流程，发现问题就修，然后再验证。 | No fixes until the root cause is real. 根因没坐实之前，不急着动手修。 |

| Why pick this· 为什么选它 | Best for the 10–30 minutes right after a deploy hits production, when "we already verified in staging" starts to wear thin. Hits a curated list of critical routes, watches for console errors, broken pages, and visual diffs against baseline. Lightweight by design — it is not a synthetic monitoring platform. Pair with release-briefing for the comms side. Don't use it as a substitute for pre-merge QA; that's qa-loop or gstack-qa's job. 上线刚结束的 10-30 分钟最适合用它——「我们在 staging 验过了」这话在生产开始撑不住的那段时间。会按预设的关键路由清单走一遍，盯控制台错误、坏页面、和基线对比的视觉 diff。设计上很轻——不是 synthetic monitoring 平台。和 release-briefing 配合做发布沟通侧。别拿它替代合并前 QA，那是 qa-loop 或 gstack-qa 的活。 | Best browser QA pick when you need evidence to leave a paper trail. Each run produces screenshots, console diffs, and a reproducible action log — much harder for stakeholders to wave off than "I tested it locally." Works well as a pre-merge gate and for filing bugs with repro steps attached. Not for unit tests, and not for authenticated production sessions where the screenshot itself becomes a data risk. 做需要留证据链的浏览器 QA，它是最佳选择。每次跑都会产出截图、控制台 diff 和可重放的动作日志——比一句「我在本地测过了」更难被挡回去。适合做合并前关卡，也适合带证据提 bug。别用在单元测试场景，也别在敏感的登录态生产会话里用——截图本身就是数据风险。 | Best when the bug lives inside the code itself, not in operational state. Same "no fixes until the root cause is real" discipline as incident-investigate, but biased toward static code investigation: reads suspect modules, builds a hypothesis tree, asks for a failing test or repro before proposing a change. Strongest on flaky tests and intermittent failures where shallow patches make things worse. For ops-side incidents (logs, traffic, infra), incident-investigate fits better. bug 是在代码里而不是在运行态时，它最合适。和 incident-investigate 一样有「根因没明确前不修复」的纪律，但更偏静态代码调查：读可疑模块、建假设树、要求先有失败测试或复现，才允许改代码。在 flaky test 和间歇性故障这种「浅修反而更糟」的场景里最强。运维侧事故（日志、流量、基础设施）用 incident-investigate 更合适。 |
