SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Provides a principled approach to persistent exploration for root-cause analysis, enabling delegation of investigation tasks to sub-agents with injected prompts and structured guidance.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Actionable constraint templates to enforce persistent exploration principles
  • Breakthrough checklist to verify prerequisites before declaring "impossible"
  • Exploration-tree format for structured reporting
  • Sub-agent delegation guidance and prompt-injection techniques
  • Scenarios: Sentry/log investigations, hard-to-reproduce bugs, and UI-disabled states

Quick Start

Instruct the system to delegate a concrete investigation task to sub-agents using a structured exploration-tree workflow.

FAQPage Schema
How do I perform root-cause analysis on Sentry logs or hard-to-reproduce bugs?

Root-cause analysis for Sentry logs or hard-to-reproduce bugs requires persistent exploration. You can delegate deep-dive investigations to sub-agents using structured prompts and an exploration-tree format to ensure thorough, verifiable results.

What is the best way to investigate non-functional or opaque UI paths?

Investigating non-functional UI paths is best handled by delegating deep-dive investigations to sub-agents. This approach uses action constraints and an exploration-tree format to systematically uncover the underlying issues without manual tracing.

Can I delegate deep-dive investigations to sub-agents using structured prompts?

Yes, you can delegate deep-dive investigations to sub-agents by injecting structured prompts. This enforces persistent exploration principles and generates an exploration-report workflow for verifiable root-cause analysis.

How do I verify prerequisites before declaring a bug investigation impossible?

To verify prerequisites before declaring a bug investigation impossible, use a breakthrough checklist. This ensures all action constraints and persistent exploration principles are exhausted before concluding the root-cause analysis.

Does persistent exploration work for analyzing log-based issues?

Yes, persistent exploration works effectively for log-based issues. It guides sub-agents to conduct structured investigations using an exploration-tree format, ensuring thorough root-cause analysis for complex Sentry or application log errors.
