How does this skill improve the debugging process?

It replaces trial-and-error guesswork with a rigorous scientific method of observation, hypothesis testing, and systematic isolation to find the true root cause.

Does it provide performance optimization advice?

It focuses on performance debugging by providing profiling techniques to identify bottlenecks, ensuring you measure performance before and after making changes.

What advanced debugging techniques are included?

The skill covers binary search debugging (Git bisect), differential debugging, trace decorators, and heap snapshot analysis for memory leaks.

Which programming languages are specifically supported?

While the principles are universal, the skill provides specific tool configurations and techniques for JavaScript/TypeScript, Python, and Go.

Can this skill help with production-only bugs?

Yes, it includes specific patterns for gathering evidence from logs, metrics, and error trackers to safely reproduce production issues in controlled environments.
