7
- $ARGUMENTS

10
-
11
- ## The Investigation Contract
12
-
13
- "A fix without a root cause is a patch on a symptom. It will fail again."
14
-
15
- The `debugger` agent follows this sequence **without skipping steps**:
16
-
17
- 1. Collect all evidence first
18
- 2. Generate ranked hypotheses
19
- 3. Test exactly one hypothesis at a time
20
- 4. Confirm root cause with evidence
21
- 5. Apply the minimum targeted fix
22
- 6. Add a regression test to prevent recurrence
23
-
24
- ---
25
-
26
- ## When to Use /debug
27
-
28
- |Use `/debug` when...|Use something else when...|
29
- |:---|:---|
30
- |There's a specific error or unexpected behavior|Code needs to be written → `/generate`|
31
- |You have a stack trace or error message|Code quality needs improving → `/refactor`|
32
- |Production is broken right now|Missing test coverage → `/test`|
33
- |A bug reappears after being "fixed"|Full health check needed → `/audit`|
34
-
35
- ---
36
-
37
- ## Step 1 — Evidence Collection (Collect All Before Hypothesizing)
38
-
39
- ```
40
- Exact error text — full stack trace, not a paraphrase
41
- □ Minimum reproduction steps — fewest actions that trigger the bug
42
- Last known-good state commit hash, date, or config snapshot
43
- Recent changes code, deps, env vars, infra, config changes
44
- Environment local/staging/prod, OS, Node version, browser, runtime
45
- Frequency always / intermittent / only under load / production only
46
- ```
47
-
48
- > ⚠️ If the error is intermittent: collect timing patterns before hypothesizing.
49
-
50
- ### Priority Investigation Order (Most Likely Root Cause First)
51
-
52
- ```
53
- 1. Recent deployments — 90% of outages are caused by recent changes
54
- 2. Environment variables rotated/missing secrets are common silent failures
55
- 3. Dependency updates — a package update can break APIs without errors
56
- 4. Infrastructure firewall, Security Groups, DB connection limits
57
- 5. Application code last to check, easiest to blame prematurely
58
- ```
59
-
60
- ---
61
-
62
- ## Step 2 Hypothesis Formation
63
-
64
- Map all possible causes with explicit likelihood labels:
65
-
66
- ```
67
- ROOT CAUSE CANDIDATES
68
- ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
69
- H1 [High] [cause] Evidence: [what points to this]
70
- H2 [Medium] [cause] Evidence: [what is consistent with this]
71
- H3 [Low] [cause] Evidence: [theoretically possible]
72
- ```
73
-
74
- **Never state a hypothesis as confirmed fact until Step 3 proves it.**
75
-
76
- ---
77
-
78
- ## Step 3 Single-Hypothesis Testing
79
-
80
- Test **one at a time**. Never test two simultaneously — results become ambiguous.
81
-
82
- ```
83
- H1 tested: [how it was investigated]
84
- Result: ✅ Confirmed | Ruled out [specific evidence against]
85
-
86
- H2 tested: [how it was investigated]
87
- Result: ✅ Confirmed | ❌ Ruled out — [reason]
88
- ```
89
-
90
- Stop when the first hypothesis is confirmed. Do not continue investigating eliminated causes.
91
-
92
- ---
93
-
94
- ## Step 4Root Cause Statement
95
-
96
- The root cause is one sentence: **WHY this happened**, not WHAT happened.
97
-
98
- ```
99
- ✅ "JWT verification was skipped when Authorization header used lowercase 'bearer'
100
- because the header check was case-sensitive"
101
-
102
- ❌ "The API returned 401" — This is the symptom, not the root cause
103
- ```
104
-
105
- ---
106
-
107
- ## Step 5 — Fix + Regression Prevention
108
-
109
- ```
110
- Targeted fix: The minimum change that eliminates the root cause
111
- Regression test: A specific test that will catch this exact failure if it returns
112
- Similar patterns: Other locations in the codebase to audit for the same issue
113
- Debug cleanup: All console.log/temporary changes removed from proposed fix
114
- ```
115
-

+
10
+ ---
11
+
12
+ ## $CONTEXT_REQUIRED
13
+
14
+ ```
15
+ Read BEFORE hypothesizing:
16
+ □ Error output / stack trace → Exact error text, not a paraphrase
17
+ Target file → The file referenced in the error
18
+ git diff (recent changes) → What changed since last working state
19
+ .env / .env.example → Check for missing/rotated secrets
20
+ □ package.json → Check for recent dependency changes
21
+ ```
22
+
23
+ ---
24
+
25
+ ## The Investigation Contract
26
+
27
+ "A fix without a root cause is a patch on a symptom. It will fail again."
28
+
29
+ The `debugger` agent follows this sequence **without skipping steps**:
30
+
31
+ 1. Collect all evidence first
32
+ 2. Generate ranked hypotheses
33
+ 3. Test exactly one hypothesis at a time
34
+ 4. Confirm root cause with evidence
35
+ 5. Apply the minimum targeted fix
36
+ 6. Add a regression test to prevent recurrence
37
+
38

39
+
40
+ ## When to Use /debug
41
+
42
+ | Use `/debug` when... | Use something else when... |
43
+ | :---------------------------------------------- | :----------------------------------------- |
44
+ | There's a specific error or unexpected behavior | Code needs to be written → `/generate` |
45
+ | You have a stack trace or error message | Code quality needs improving → `/refactor` |
46
+ | Production is broken right now | Missing test coverage → `/test` |
47
+ | A bug reappears after being "fixed" | Full health check needed → `/audit` |
48
+
49
+ ---
50
+
51
+ ## Step 1 — Evidence Collection (Collect All Before Hypothesizing)
52
+
53
+ ```
54
+ Exact error text full stack trace, not a paraphrase
55
+ Minimum reproduction steps fewest actions that trigger the bug
56
+ Last known-good state commit hash, date, or config snapshot
57
+ Recent changes code, deps, env vars, infra, config changes
58
+ □ Environment — local/staging/prod, OS, Node version, browser, runtime
59
+ □ Frequency — always / intermittent / only under load / production only
60
+ ```
61
+
62
+ > ⚠️ If the error is intermittent: collect timing patterns before hypothesizing.
63
+
64
+ ### Priority Investigation Order (Most Likely Root Cause First)
65
+
66
+ ```
67
+ 1. Recent deployments — 90% of outages are caused by recent changes
68
+ 2. Environment variables — rotated/missing secrets are common silent failures
69
+ 3. Dependency updates a package update can break APIs without errors
70
+ 4. Infrastructure firewall, Security Groups, DB connection limits
71
+ 5. Application code last to check, easiest to blame prematurely
72
+ ```
73
+
74
+ ---
75
+
76
+ ## Step 2 — Hypothesis Formation
77
+
78
+ Map all possible causes with explicit likelihood labels:
79
+
80
+ ```
81
+ ROOT CAUSE CANDIDATES
82
+ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
83
+ H1 [High] — [cause] — Evidence: [what points to this]
84
+ H2 [Medium] [cause] Evidence: [what is consistent with this]
85
+ H3 [Low] — [cause] — Evidence: [theoretically possible]
86
+ ```
87
+
88
+ **Never state a hypothesis as confirmed fact until Step 3 proves it.**
89
+
90
+ ---
91
+
92
+ ## Step 3 — Single-Hypothesis Testing
93
+
94
+ Test **one at a time**. Never test two simultaneously results become ambiguous.
95
+
96
+ ```
97
+ H1 tested: [how it was investigated]
98
+ Result: ✅ Confirmed | ❌ Ruled out — [specific evidence against]
99
+
100
+ H2 tested: [how it was investigated]
101
+ Result: ✅ Confirmed | ❌ Ruled out — [reason]
102
+ ```
103
+
104
+ Stop when the first hypothesis is confirmed. Do not continue investigating eliminated causes.
105
+
106
+ ---
107
+
108
+ ## Step 4 — Root Cause Statement
109
+
110
+ The root cause is one sentence: **WHY this happened**, not WHAT happened.
111
+
112
+ ```
113
+ "JWT verification was skipped when Authorization header used lowercase 'bearer'
114
+ because the header check was case-sensitive"
115
+
116
+ ❌ "The API returned 401" — This is the symptom, not the root cause
117
+ ```
118
+
119
+ ---
120
+
121
+ ## Step 5 — Fix + Regression Prevention
122
+
123
+ ```
124
+ Targeted fix: The minimum change that eliminates the root cause
125
+ Regression test: A specific test that will catch this exact failure if it returns
126
+ Similar patterns: Other locations in the codebase to audit for the same issue
127
+ Debug cleanup: All console.log/temporary changes removed from proposed fix
128
+ ```
