bug_checker.py

"""
Bug checker — v2, using real static analysis instead of a heuristic.
 
Why the old approach was wrong:
The previous version fed code into a base (non-fine-tuned) CodeT5 model and
flagged "bug" whenever its generated output differed from the input. That's
not bug detection -- an untrained generative model will almost always
produce *some* different text, so it was flagging correct code constantly.
 
What this version does instead:
1. Syntax check via Python's own `ast.parse` -- catches things like missing
   colons, unmatched brackets, bad indentation. 100% accurate, since it's
   Python's real parser, not a guess.
2. Static analysis via `pyflakes` -- catches real bugs: undefined names,
   unused imports/variables, redefined functions, unreachable code, etc.
   This is the same engine that powers linters in VS Code / PyCharm.
3. (Optional) The fine-tuned seq2seq model from train.py, if you've trained
   one, is used ONLY to suggest a fix once a real issue has already been
   found by steps 1-2 -- not to decide whether a bug exists in the first
   place.
