AI Analytical Troubleshooting Skill for Codex & Claude

AI Analytical Troubleshooting Skill for Codex & Claude

The AI Analytical Troubleshooting Skill for Codex & Claude provides a systematic approach to identifying causes behind performance deviations. It employs a staged method, beginning with quick likelihood-weighted tests and advancing to a comparative IS/IS-NOT analysis if initial tests do not identify the issue. This skill is influenced by the Kepner & Tregoe problem-analysis methodology and aids in maintaining evidence discipline for effective diagnosis.

What this skill does

• Utilizes a structured staged method for troubleshooting deviation problems.
• Facilitates quick likelihood-weighted tests to identify causes efficiently.
• Progresses to a detailed IS/IS-NOT specification and distinctions-and-changes analysis when larger search spaces are involved.
• Supports both agent-directed testing (user executes) and direct agent testing.
• Emphasizes balanced evidence collection to prevent anchoring bias.

Who it is for

• Developers and technical teams utilizing AI coding agents such as Codex and Claude.
• Professionals involved in software maintenance and optimization.
• Teams seeking a disciplined approach to problem analysis and troubleshooting.

Use cases

• Diagnosing performance issues in software systems where traditional methods have failed.
• Refining system functionalities by identifying contradictions in expected vs actual performance.
• Supporting developers in maintaining objectivity during complex diagnosis processes.

Technical details

• Designed for compatibility with Codex and Claude AI coding agents.
• Employs procedural scaffolding, such as tables and checklists, to augment troubleshooting effectiveness.
• Operates within structured tests and analysis frameworks, irrespective of domain-specific knowledge.
