Does it support multiple programming languages?

Yes, it includes specialized strategies, debugger configurations, and code snippets for JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, and Go.

Can it help with production-only bugs?

Absolutely. It includes specific patterns for production debugging, safe evidence gathering from logs, and techniques for reproducing environment-specific issues locally.

What advanced debugging techniques are included?

The skill covers complex methods like Git bisect for regression tracking, binary search debugging, trace debugging, and memory heap snapshot analysis.

How does this skill improve my debugging workflow?

It replaces trial-and-error with a systematic scientific method, providing structured checklists, reproduction steps, and language-specific tool configurations.

Is this skill suitable for junior developers?

Yes, it teaches foundational mindsets like Rubber Duck debugging and 'Don't Assume' principles alongside professional-grade profiling tools.
