+# ROCm Doctor
+
+Given a "ROCm / PyTorch / llama.cpp isn't working on my AMD GPU" complaint,
+identify which **known misconfiguration** is the cause and either fix it (with
+consent) or hand back the exact next step.
+
+This skill does **not** probe or reason on its own. The `rocm` CLI owns the
+probe, the closed failure-mode catalog, and the fixes; the skill just drives it
+and relays the results. The catalog is a **closed list** — if the symptom
+doesn't match a known mode, route the user upstream instead of guessing.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- **The `rocm` CLI.** This skill is only a driver over it; Phase 0 below installs
+  it with the user's consent if `rocm --version` fails. Nothing else here is
+  assumed — the CLI does the probing.
+- **Platform:** native Linux (in-tree `amdgpu` module + `/dev/kfd`) or Windows
+  (HIP SDK). WSL2, NVIDIA/Intel/Apple GPUs, and clean-machine installs are out of
+  scope (see [Out of scope](#out-of-scope)).
+- **No fixed ROCm version, GPU arch (`gfx…`), or container image is assumed** —
+  `rocm examine`/`diagnose` detect the installed ROCm, the GPU's `gfx` target, and
+  container context, and match fixes to what they find. Never hand-set
+  `HSA_OVERRIDE_GFX_VERSION` (or similar footgun env vars) yourself; let the CLI
+  decide.
+
+## Workflow
+
+0. **Ensure the `rocm` CLI is present.** Everything below shells out to it, so
+   check first and install it if missing:
+
+   ```
+   rocm --version
+   ```
+
+   If that succeeds, skip to step 1. If it's not found, install it **with the
+   user's consent** (this fetches and runs an installer that drops the `rocm` and
+   `rocmd` binaries into `~/.local/bin`). Only nightly builds are published
+   today, so install from the `nightly` channel:
+
+   - **Linux / macOS:**
+     ```
+     curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ROCm/rocm-cli/main/install.sh | sh -s -- nightly
+     ```
+   - **Windows (PowerShell):**
+     ```
+     $env:ROCM_CLI_CHANNEL = "nightly"
+     irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ROCm/rocm-cli/main/install.ps1 | iex
+     ```
+
+   (Once rocm-cli cuts a stable release, drop the `nightly` channel — `sh` /
+   `iex` alone will pull the latest stable build.)
+
+   After install, confirm `~/.local/bin` is on `PATH` and re-run `rocm --version`.
+   If it still isn't available, hand the user the install page
+   (https://github.com/ROCm/rocm-cli) and stop.
+
+1. **Diagnose.** Pass the user's error text as the symptom:
+
+   ```
+   rocm diagnose --symptom "<paste the exact error>" --json
+   ```
+
+   Read the JSON:
+   - `matched[]` — ranked causes, each with `id`, `title`, `score` (0–100),
+     `evidence[]`, and a `fix` (with `fix_id`, `summary`, `commands`, `verify`,
+     `notes`, and the `needs_sudo` / `needs_reboot` / `needs_relogin` /
+     `auto_applicable` flags). `score >= 75` = high confidence; `50–74` = likely
+     (confirm one more piece of evidence with the user first).
+   - `out_of_scope` — when set (e.g. WSL2), do **not** diagnose. First, if the
+     user's symptom clearly names an app that ships its own runtime (Lemonade,
+     Ollama, LM Studio), route them to that app's tracker (see
+     [Framework routing](#framework-routing)) — those trackers apply regardless
+     of platform. Otherwise relay the `out_of_scope` message and stop (see
+     [Out of scope](#out-of-scope)).
+   - `route_when_no_match` — when `matched` is empty, hand the user this
+     upstream tracker; **do not speculate**. Note the CLI picks this target from
+     the *host-detected* framework, not from the symptom text — so for an app
+     named only in the symptom, route it yourself per
+     [Framework routing](#framework-routing).
+
+2. **Propose the fix.** Show the top match's `title`, `evidence`, plan, and
+   `verify` command. Only propose applying it when the user is on board.
+
+3. **Apply with consent.** For an auto-applicable fix:
+
+   ```
+   rocm fix <fix-id>            # auto fixes: prompt before changing anything
+   rocm fix <fix-id> --dry-run  # show the exact change, touch nothing
+   rocm fix <fix-id> --yes      # required to apply in a non-interactive shell
+   ```
+
+   Only the four auto-applicable fixes prompt and mutate. The other 11 are
+   **print-only** (bootloader, kernel, reinstall, Windows driver, …): `rocm fix
+   <id>` just prints the plan for the user to run themselves — no prompt, and the
+   CLI never performs those.
+
+4. **Verify.** Have the user run the `verify` command from the diagnosis.
+
+Use `rocm examine` (or `rocm examine --json`) when you only need the host state
+(GPU, driver, ROCm install, groups, framework) without a diagnosis.
+
+## Framework routing
+
+`rocm diagnose` covers frameworks that build against the **system** ROCm/HIP:
+
+- **PyTorch**, **llama.cpp** — in scope; diagnose normally.
+
+Apps that ship their **own** ROCm runtime aren't diagnosed here — route the user
+to the right tracker. (The CLI's `route_when_no_match` also targets these, but
+only when the host probe *detects* that app; when the app is named only in the
+symptom, do the routing yourself using the list below.)
+
+- **Lemonade** → https://github.com/lemonade-sdk/lemonade/issues
+- **Ollama** → https://github.com/ollama/ollama/issues
+- **LM Studio** → in-app support (no public repo)
+- Anything else with no catalog match → ROCm core:
+  https://github.com/ROCm/ROCm/issues (this is what `route_when_no_match`
+  returns by default).
+
+## Out of scope
+
+- **WSL2** — a distinct platform (`/dev/dxg` + the Windows host driver, not the
+  in-tree `amdgpu` module or `/dev/kfd`). `rocm examine`/`diagnose` detect it and
+  route out; relay that guidance and point at AMD's ROCm-on-WSL guide.
+- **NVIDIA / Intel / Apple Silicon GPUs**, and **fresh installs on a clean
+  machine** (a setup task, not a diagnosis). Exit cleanly and say so.
+
+## Rules
+
+- Never invent a fix. If `rocm diagnose` returns no match, route upstream.
+- Never run a mutating fix without the user's explicit OK; prefer `--dry-run`
+  first. New failure modes are added to the CLI catalog, not improvised here.
+
+See [reference.md](reference.md) for the full closed catalog and the CLI
+command/exit-code reference.

+diagnosis (which needs a real AMD GPU). Deterministic checks (`logs_contains`)
+assert activation and the Phase 0 probe; `should` / `should_not` are graded by
+an LLM judge and phrased to allow the skill's "CLI unavailable -> hand back the
