Can I use this for performance issues?

Yes, it is specifically designed to analyze bottlenecks, identify slow code paths, and suggest optimization strategies.

How does it handle existing investigations?

If an investigation for the same issue already exists, the skill enters Update Mode to refine findings and log changes without losing previous context.

What subagents does the investigate skill use?

It leverages the built-in Explore subagent and can utilize project-specific test-runner and build-validator agents if they are configured in your project.

Where are the investigation results stored?

All findings are saved as standardized Markdown files in the .context/investigations/ directory for persistent project documentation.

Does the investigate skill fix the code automatically?

No, the investigate skill focuses on discovery and planning. It produces a detailed report and recommendations which can then be implemented using the breakdown skill.

生産性とワークフロー

Conducts systematic deep-dive analysis into bugs, performance bottlenecks, and technical debt to produce actionable resolution plans.

The investigate skill bridges the gap between identifying a problem and fixing it by automating the discovery process within the Claude Code environment. It utilizes specialized subagents to trace execution paths, reproduce errors, and evaluate performance bottlenecks across your codebase. Instead of jumping straight into code changes, it documents root causes, evaluates multiple resolution options, and identifies risks, resulting in a comprehensive investigation file that can be seamlessly converted into implementation tasks using the /ctx:breakdown workflow.
