System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

This skill provides a structured approach to halt implementation when progress is blocked by repeated errors or uncertainty, ensuring root-cause analysis before resuming.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Stall Detection: Automatically triggers when 2+ consecutive failures occur.
  • Root Cause Analysis: Mandates deep research and systematic isolation of issues.
  • Controlled Resumption: Requires a verified plan and user approval for direction changes.
  • Use Case: If a feature consistently fails build tests after multiple attempts, this skill will pause development, initiate a deep dive into the error logs and documentation, and only allow coding to resume after a clear understanding and a proposed solution are presented.

Quick Start

Use investigation mode to pause implementation and research the root cause of the current repeated errors.
