What problem does it solve?
This Skill helps developers and practitioners systematically diagnose and resolve bugs, unexpected behavior, and regressions in code that has already been implemented by forcing an evidence-first, root-cause approach before any fixes are written.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Evidence-first diagnosis: Trace code paths, cite file:line, inspect logs, and avoid guessing; use 5 Whys and causal diagrams to reach a verifiable root cause.
- UI diagnostic tooling: Produce copy-paste browser DevTools scripts for visibility, stacking context, overflow, and interaction tracing when the bug is UI-related.
- Developer-as-sensor workflow: Minimize runtime assumptions by asking targeted, minimal actions of the developer to collect the exact runtime evidence needed.
- Verified fixes and verification: Provide a clear fix plan, apply changes at the root cause, and produce verification steps or scripts to confirm the problem is resolved.
Quick Start
Describe the failing behavior, include reproduction steps, affected file paths, and any logs or screenshots so the diagnostic trace can begin.
