Systematic Debugging Framework FAQs

Question 1

When should I use this debugging skill?

Accepted Answer

You should use it for any technical issue, including test failures, production bugs, build errors, or performance problems, especially when under time pressure or dealing with complex systems.

Question 2

What is the Systematic Debugging skill?

Accepted Answer

It is a specialized protocol for Claude Code that enforces a four-phase framework—Investigation, Pattern Analysis, Hypothesis, and Implementation—to ensure bugs are fully understood before any code changes are proposed.

Question 3

Why is root cause investigation mandatory?

Accepted Answer

Fixing symptoms rather than root causes leads to 'thrashing,' where a fix for one bug creates new issues. Root cause investigation ensures the solution is permanent and architecturally sound.

Question 4

What happens if a fix doesn't work after three attempts?

Accepted Answer

The skill triggers an architectural review phase. Instead of trying a fourth fix, Claude is instructed to stop and question if the underlying pattern or architecture is fundamentally flawed.

Question 5

Does this skill work with other Claude capabilities?

Accepted Answer

Yes, it specifically requires and integrates with skills like root-cause-tracing for deep call stacks and test-driven-development for creating reproduction cases.
