What problem does it solve?

This skill guides the agent to work through a bug methodically — distinguishing the root cause from the symptoms, tracing the execution path that led to the failure, and producing a clear diagnosis with a recommended fix. It applies the 5-Why technique, reads stack traces carefully, and avoids patching the symptom without understanding the cause.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Systematic root-cause diagnosis using 5-Why analysis and structured execution-path tracing.
  • Stack-trace oriented evaluation to identify the last application-code frame where the bug originates.
  • Clear, actionable diagnosis with symptom, root cause, category, execution path, and recommended fix.
  • Useful for runtime errors, flaky tests, and complex debugging scenarios to reduce guesswork.

Quick Start

Ask the Bug Root Cause Analyzer to diagnose a bug by providing the exact error message and full stack trace.
