What problem does it solve?

This Skill addresses the issue of tool execution failures by converting them into diagnostic events, enabling the agent to enter a specialized recovery mode instead of halting.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Diagnostic Loop: Captures symptoms, audits context, generates hypotheses, and applies corrective actions.
  • Symptom Capture: Extracts stderr and exit_code.
  • Context Audit: Checks working directory, dependency existence, and filesystem permissions.
  • Hypothesis Generation: Determines if the failure is transient, configuration-related, or logical.
  • Corrective Action: Retries, updates configurations, or proposes patches.
  • Verification: Re-runs the original command to confirm the fix.
  • Use Case: When a command like gh fails, the skill can automatically check if it's installed and attempt to fix the issue.

Quick Start
