Unlike speculative fixes, this skill utilizes evidence-first debugging strategies to address bugs that cannot be easily reproduced or that persist despite previous attempts at fixing them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat this skill does\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eRestates the bug by outlining the observed versus the expected behavior succinctly.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eFollows the actual execution path from entry to failure, avoiding assumptions based on file names.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eGenerates a list of 3–5 competing hypotheses and defines the runtime values or events needed to confirm or rule out each hypothesis.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eImplements temporary probes to garner runtime information necessary for identifying the root cause.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eApplies the smallest possible fix based on gathered evidence, verifies the resolution, and removes the temporary probes to maintain clean code.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWho it is for\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis skill is aimed at developers and development teams who leverage AI coding agents such as Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex.
