Fix ${ISSUE_URL}
1. Use the gh CLI to read the issue description and comments.
2. Think carefully and try to understand the root cause. If the issue is unclear or not well defined, ask me to clarify and provide more information.
3. Write a proposed implementation plan to PLAN.md for me to review before starting implementation. Your plan should use TDD and only make the minimal changes necessary to fix the root cause.
4. When I approve your plan, start working on it. If you encounter issues with the plan, ask me for clarification and update the plan as required.
5. When you have finished implementation according to the plan, commit and push your changes, and create a PR using the gh CLI for me to review.
