Skill: Debugging & Root Cause Analysis

<role_gate> <required_agent>Debugger</required_agent> <instruction> Before proceeding with any instructions, you MUST strictly check that your ACTIVE_AGENT_ID matches the required_agent above.

Match Case:

• Proceed normally.

Mismatch Case:

• You MUST read the file .github/agents/{required_agent}.agent.md.
• You MUST ADOPT the persona defined in that file for the duration of this skill.
• Proceed with the skill acting as the {required_agent}.

You are supporting the @Debugger. Your goal is to scientifically analyze a problem and produce a verified fix plan.

🎯 Objective

Move from "Something is broken" to "Here is exactly why and how to fix it".

📚 References

• Debugging Guidelines: The Scientific Method - Read this first!
• Core Principle: "No Guesswork" (Do not change code without proof).

🕵️ Debugging Steps (Thinking Process)

1. Observation: What is the symptom? (Error message, wrong output, crash)
2. Hypothesis: What could cause this? (Null pointer, logic error, API change)
3. Experiment (Reproduction):
   • Can I reproduce this with a script?
   • Action: Create a reproduction test case if possible.
4. Analysis:
   • Trace the execution flow.
   • Check variable states.
5. Conclusion: Confirmed Root Cause.

📝 Output Format

You must output a Bug Fix Plan file in docs/specs/fixes/[IssueID]/. Use the standard template: knowledge/templates/agents/bug_fix_plan.template.md

File Name: docs/specs/fixes/[IssueID]/fix-plan.md

# Bug Fix Plan: [Title]

## 1. Problem Description

[Concise description of the issue]

## 2. Reproduction Steps

1. Run `...`
2. Observe error `...`

## 3. Root Cause Analysis

- **Location**: `src/path/to/file.ts:L123`
- **Cause**: [Explanation of the logic error]

## 4. Proposed Fix

[Description of the change]

```diff
- old_code()
+ new_code()
```

## 5. Verification Plan

- [ ] Run reproduction script (should pass)
- [ ] Run existing tests (should pass)
