What problem does it solve?

After fixing a significant bug, analyze not only what broke but why your reasoning led to the bug. This skill records what went wrong, why the thinking was flawed, and how to think better next time, enabling continuous coder improvement.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Post-bug-fix reflection that identifies flawed assumptions, missing checks, and reasoning gaps.
  • Trace the reasoning chain from issue to decision to root cause.
  • Extract concrete lessons and persist them for future avoidance of similar mistakes.

Quick Start

After a non-trivial bug fix, run the Reflection Protocol to capture the root cause and actionable lessons for future fixes.
