SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill streamlines the process of diagnosing and reproducing bugs in DekSpec environments, ensuring that issues can be resolved effectively and efficiently.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Bug Reproduction: Automatically create reproducible PASS/FAIL signals for bugs.
  • Minimization: Minimize the reproducible bug to its smallest form.
  • Hypothesis Testing: Test hypotheses against the reproducible bug.
  • Fix and Regression Test: Ensure fixes do not introduce new issues.
  • Use Case: When a bug is identified in a DekSpec environment, use this Skill to create a reproducible bug and follow through with hypothesis testing, fixing, and regression testing.

Quick Start

To diagnose a bug in the current directory, run: /dekspec:diagnose-bug --at .

Frequently Asked Questions about diagnose-bug

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I reproduce a bug in a DekSpec environment?▼

You can reproduce a bug by running the diagnose-bug Skill in your DekSpec environment, which automatically generates PASS/FAIL signals and minimizes the bug to its smallest form.

What is the best way to automate hypothesis testing for software bugs?▼

Automating hypothesis testing for software bugs is best handled by using a dedicated bug diagnosis Skill to test hypotheses against a minimized, reproducible bug within your DekSpec environment.

Do I need Claude Code to run bug diagnosis and regression testing?▼

Yes, you need Claude Code and access to DekSpec's debugging context to run the automated bug diagnosis, hypothesis testing, and regression testing processes.

How do I minimize a reproducible bug to its smallest form?▼

You can minimize a reproducible bug to its smallest form by executing the diagnose-bug Skill, which systematically strips away extraneous variables to isolate the core failure signal.

Can I automate regression testing after fixing a bug in DekSpec?▼

Yes, you can automate regression testing after fixing a bug in DekSpec by using the diagnose-bug Skill, which ensures your fixes do not introduce new issues or regressions.

Why does my bug diagnosis process fail to create consistent PASS/FAIL signals?▼

Your bug diagnosis fails to create consistent PASS/FAIL signals when lacking a reproducible environment; utilizing an automated bug diagnosis Skill standardizes this signal generation and minimization.
