SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Prevents shotgun debugging by guiding a structured process: observe, reproduce, hypothesize, test, fix, verify, and prevent.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Phase-based debugging and zero-context scripts for evidence gathering
  • Logical steps to reproduce and test hypotheses
  • Use Case: Reduce time to fix bugs by following the root-cause flow

Quick Start

Run the analyze_logs.py to parse logs; reproduce the bug with a minimal test; commit minimal fix and regression test.
