What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps to clearly define a problem, gather essential environmental information, and assess the potential risk associated with changes.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Problem Definition: Structures the understanding of an issue, including expected vs. actual behavior.
  • Evidence Collection: Gathers logs, error codes, and observations to support the problem definition.
  • Risk Assessment: Evaluates the potential impact of changes based on predefined profiles.
  • Use Case: When a bug is reported, use this Skill to systematically document the issue, collect relevant logs, and determine if fixing it poses a high or low risk to the system.

Quick Start

Use the triage skill to define the problem described in the error message and assess its risk level.

FAQPage Schema
How do I define a software bug and assess its risk level before fixing it?

To define a software bug and assess its risk level, structure the issue by comparing expected versus actual behavior, collect relevant logs and environment info, then evaluate the potential impact against predefined risk profiles.

What is the best way to collect evidence and environment info for problem definition?

The best way to collect evidence for problem definition is to gather logs, error codes, reproduction steps, and environment info systematically to support the issue assessment before evaluating risk.

Can I use automated triage to evaluate if a bug fix poses a high risk to the system?

Yes, you can use triage to evaluate if a bug fix poses a high or low risk to the system by comparing the potential impact of changes against predefined risk assessment profiles.

How do I document reproduction steps and log collection for a reported issue?

Document reproduction steps and log collection by structuring the expected and actual behavior, gathering environment info, and collecting error codes and observations to support the problem definition.

When do I need to delegate problem triage to a specialized agent for evidence collection?

You need to delegate problem triage to a specialized agent like Explorer when initial problem definition and risk assessment indicate that further evidence collection is required to understand the issue.
