What problem does it solve?
This Skill helps diagnose and fix software issues that are hard to resolve in a single pass, especially when context resets, partial evidence, or long-running investigations make it difficult to keep track of what has already been tried.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Symptom Gathering: Collects expected behavior, actual behavior, errors, timeline, and reproduction steps before investigating.
- Isolated Agent Debugging: Spawns a dedicated debugging agent so the main conversation stays focused while deeper investigation happens separately.
- Checkpoint Handling: Supports human verification and continuation prompts when the investigation reaches a decision point.
- Use Case: A developer reports a failing workflow after a recent change; this Skill can trace the issue, confirm root cause, and continue the fix across context resets without losing progress.
Quick Start
Use the gsd-debug skill to investigate the reported issue, gather the necessary symptoms, and either diagnose the root cause or apply a fix.
