Systematic Debugging FAQs

Question 1

How does the skill handle multi-component systems?

Accepted Answer

It implements diagnostic instrumentation at every component boundary to log data entering and exiting each layer, revealing exactly where the logic or environment configuration fails.

Question 2

When is the best time to use this skill?

Accepted Answer

Use it for any technical issue, including test failures, production bugs, or performance problems, and especially when a 'quick fix' has already failed or the system involves multiple components.

Question 3

What happens if three fixes in a row fail to resolve the bug?

Accepted Answer

The skill triggers an architectural review phase. It stops further fix attempts and prompts a discussion about whether the underlying design or pattern is fundamentally flawed.

Question 4

What is the 'Iron Law' of systematic debugging?

Accepted Answer

The Iron Law dictates that no fixes should be proposed or implemented until a thorough root cause investigation is completed. Symptom-based fixes are treated as failures.

Question 5

Does this skill work with Test-Driven Development (TDD)?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Phase 4 requires creating a failing test case that reliably reproduces the bug before any fix is implemented, ensuring the solution is verified and persistent.
