System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

Enforces root-cause investigation before fixes, discouraging quick patches, retries, or resilience patterns during pre-launch, to keep velocity high and debt low.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • CORE MANDATE: NO fixes without root-cause investigation.
  • Four phases: Observe the error, Reproduce, Trace, Hypothesize, and Verify.
  • Anti-patterns documented (Quick Fix, Shotgun Debugging, Retry Logic, Hope-Based Debugging, Blame Shifting) with concrete corrections.

Quick Start

When an error occurs, pause and follow Phase 1: Observe the exact error message and stack trace, then proceed through the trace and hypothesis steps before proposing code changes.
