What problem does it solve?

This Skill prevents quick-fix attempts and ensures proper debugging by dispatching a specialized agent that enforces a rigorous 4-phase debugging process.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Systematic Debugging: Enforces a 4-phase process (root cause investigation, pattern analysis, hypothesis testing, implementation) for all bugs, errors, and unexpected behavior.
  • Agent-Driven Process: Utilizes a dedicated agent to maintain the debugging process, preventing context dilution and ensuring discipline.
  • Use Case: When encountering a persistent test failure that isn't immediately obvious, dispatch this Skill to ensure a thorough investigation rather than a series of speculative code changes.

Quick Start

Use the Task tool with subagent_type='systematic-debugging-agent' and provide the bug details.
