Can it help find performance bottlenecks?

Yes, it includes techniques for performance profiling and identifies common culprits like N+1 queries, unnecessary re-renders, and synchronous I/O issues.

What languages does this skill support?

It includes specific patterns and configurations for JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, and Go, though the general systematic principles apply to any technology stack.

What is 'Rubber Duck Debugging' in this context?

It is a strategy included in the skill's mindset section that involves explaining the code and problem out loud to reveal logical gaps and hidden assumptions.

How does this help with production bugs?

It provides a framework for gathering evidence from error trackers and logs to reproduce issues locally using safe investigation techniques without compromising the production environment.

보안 및 테스팅

Implements systematic debugging workflows, profiling techniques, and root cause analysis to resolve complex software issues across any technology stack.

소개

The Debugging Strategies skill transforms the often-frustrating process of troubleshooting into a methodical, data-driven practice. By leveraging the scientific method, the skill helps developers move beyond guesswork to consistently reproduce, isolate, and fix elusive bugs. It provides comprehensive patterns for JavaScript, Python, and Go, covering everything from basic console logging and breakpoints to advanced memory leak detection, performance profiling, and git bisect workflows. Whether dealing with intermittent race conditions in development or critical failures in production, this skill offers the frameworks needed to identify root causes quickly and implement long-term fixes.
