-# Real-World Debugging Examples
-
-> **Part of**: [Systematic Debugging](../SKILL.md)
-> **Category**: debugging
-> **Reading Level**: Intermediate
-
-## Purpose
-
-Real-world scenarios demonstrating systematic debugging in action, with step-by-step walkthroughs showing how to apply the four-phase process.
-
-## Example 1: API Integration Failure
-
-### Symptom
-
-```
-Error: API request failed with status 401
-Tests pass locally but fail in CI
-```
-
-### Phase 1: Root Cause Investigation
-
-**Read Error:**
-```
-HTTP 401 Unauthorized
-Response: {"error": "Invalid API key"}
-```
-
-**Reproduce:**
-- ✓ Runs successfully locally
-- ✗ Fails in CI every time
-- Difference: Local has `.env` file, CI uses environment variables
-
-**Check Changes:**
-```bash
-git log --oneline --since="3 days ago"
-# Found: "Add API key authentication" 2 days ago
-```
-
-**Gather Evidence:**
-```bash
-# In CI config
-echo "API_KEY present: ${API_KEY:+YES}${API_KEY:-NO}"
-# Output: API_KEY present: NO
-
-# In local env
-echo $API_KEY
-# Output: sk-abc123...
-```
-
-**Root cause identified**: API_KEY environment variable not set in CI
-
-### Phase 2: Pattern Analysis
-
-**Find working examples:**
-```yaml
-# Other workflows using secrets
-env:
-  DATABASE_URL: ${{ secrets.DATABASE_URL }}  # Works
-  API_KEY: ${{ secrets.API_KEY }}            # Missing!
-```
-
-**Identify difference**: DATABASE_URL configured in GitHub secrets, API_KEY is not
-
-### Phase 3: Hypothesis and Testing
-
-**Hypothesis**: "API_KEY secret not configured in GitHub repository settings"
-
-**Test**: Check repository settings → Secrets → API_KEY not found
-
-**Confirmed**: Secret needs to be added
-
-### Phase 4: Implementation
-
-**Test case** (manual verification):
-```bash
-# After adding secret, check in CI
-echo "API_KEY set: ${API_KEY:+YES}"
-# Expected: YES
-```
-
-**Fix**: Add API_KEY to GitHub repository secrets
-
-**Verify**: CI build passes, API calls succeed
-
-**Time**: 15 minutes with systematic approach vs 2+ hours guessing
-
-## Example 2: Intermittent Test Failure
-
-### Symptom
-
-```
-Test 'processes user data' fails randomly
-Passes 80% of the time, fails 20%
-No clear pattern to failures
-```
-
-### Phase 1: Root Cause Investigation
-
-**Read Error:**
-```
-Expected: { id: 1, name: 'Alice', role: 'admin' }
-Received: { id: 1, name: 'Alice', role: 'user' }
-```
-
-**Reproduce:**
-- Run test 10 times → fails 2-3 times
-- Failure seems random
-- Not time-dependent
-
-**Check Recent Changes:**
-```bash
-git diff HEAD~1 -- tests/user.test.ts
-# No changes to test
-# But role assignment logic changed
-```
-
-**Gather Evidence:**
-```typescript
-// Add logging
-test('processes user data', async () => {
-  console.log('Test start:', new Date().toISOString());
-  const user = await createUser({ name: 'Alice', role: 'admin' });
-  console.log('User created:', user);
-  console.log('Role at creation:', user.role);
-  // ...
-});
-```
-
-**Pattern found**: Role correct at creation, changes later
-
-**Trace Data Flow:**
-```typescript
-// Step through code
-createUser() → saveToDatabase() → applyDefaults() → role changes!
-
-// applyDefaults has bug:
-function applyDefaults(user) {
-  return {
-    ...user,
-    role: user.role || 'user'  // BUG: 'user' overwrites existing role
-  };
-}
-```
-
-### Phase 2: Pattern Analysis
-
-**Find working examples:**
-```typescript
-// Correct default handling
-function applyDefaults(user) {
-  return {
-    role: 'user',  // Default first
-    ...user,       // Then overrides
-  };
-}
-```
-
-**Identify difference**: Order of spread operator matters
-
-### Phase 3: Hypothesis and Testing
-
-**Hypothesis**: "Spread operator order causes role to be overwritten with default"
-
-**Test**:
-```typescript
-// Minimal test
-const result = { ...{ name: 'Alice', role: 'admin' }, role: 'user' };
-console.log(result.role);  // 'user' - overwrites!
-
-const correct = { role: 'user', ...{ name: 'Alice', role: 'admin' } };
-console.log(correct.role);  // 'admin' - correct!
-```
-
-**Confirmed**: Spread order is the issue
-
-### Phase 4: Implementation
-
-**Test case**:
-```typescript
-test('preserves existing role when applying defaults', () => {
-  const user = { name: 'Alice', role: 'admin' };
-  const result = applyDefaults(user);
-  expect(result.role).toBe('admin');
-});
-```
-
-**Fix**:
-```typescript
-function applyDefaults(user) {
-  return {
-    role: 'user',  // Default first
-    status: 'active',
-    ...user,       // User values override
-  };
-}
-```
-
-**Verify**: Test passes 100 consecutive times, no more intermittent failures
-
-## Example 3: Performance Degradation
-
-### Symptom
-
-```
-Dashboard loads in 5+ seconds (was <1 second)
-Users complaining about slowness
-No recent deploys
-```
-
-### Phase 1: Root Cause Investigation
-
-**Read Error**: No explicit error, just slow performance
-
-**Reproduce**:
-```bash
-# Measure consistently
-time curl http://localhost:3000/dashboard
-# ~5.2 seconds consistently
-```
-
-**Check Recent Changes**:
-```bash
-git log --oneline --since="1 week ago" -- src/dashboard/
-# No code changes to dashboard
-
-git log --oneline --since="1 week ago" -- database/
-# Found: "Add index to improve user queries" 3 days ago
-```
-
-**Gather Evidence**:
-```sql
--- Enable query logging
-SET log_min_duration_statement = 100;
-
--- Analyze slow queries
-EXPLAIN ANALYZE SELECT * FROM user_activity
-WHERE user_id = 123
-ORDER BY created_at DESC;
-
--- Output shows: Seq Scan on user_activity (cost=0.00..45678.23 rows=500000)
-```
-
-**Pattern found**: Query doing sequential scan despite new index
-
-### Phase 2: Pattern Analysis
-
-**Check index**:
-```sql
-\d user_activity
--- Indexes:
---   "user_activity_user_created_idx" btree (user_id, created_at)
-
--- But query doesn't use it!
-```
-
-**Find working examples**:
-```sql
--- This query uses index
-SELECT * FROM user_sessions WHERE user_id = 123;
-
--- Our query doesn't - why?
-SELECT * FROM user_activity WHERE user_id = 123 ORDER BY created_at DESC;
-```
-
-**Identify difference**: ORDER BY direction (DESC) doesn't match index (ASC)
-
-### Phase 3: Hypothesis and Testing
-
-**Hypothesis**: "Index not used because ORDER BY DESC doesn't match index order ASC"
-
-**Test**:
-```sql
--- Drop and recreate with DESC
-DROP INDEX user_activity_user_created_idx;
-CREATE INDEX user_activity_user_created_idx
-  ON user_activity (user_id, created_at DESC);
-
--- Test query performance
-EXPLAIN ANALYZE SELECT * FROM user_activity
-WHERE user_id = 123
-ORDER BY created_at DESC;
-
--- Output: Index Scan using user_activity_user_created_idx (cost=0.43..123.45)
-```
-
-**Confirmed**: Index now used, performance improved
-
-### Phase 4: Implementation
-
-**Test case**:
-```typescript
-test('dashboard loads in under 1 second', async () => {
-  const start = Date.now();
-  await fetch('/dashboard');
-  const duration = Date.now() - start;
-  expect(duration).toBeLessThan(1000);
-});
-```
-
-**Fix**: Update index definition to match query pattern
-
-**Verify**:
-- Dashboard loads in 0.4 seconds
-- All other queries still work
-- No performance regressions
-
-## Example 4: Multi-Component System Failure
-
-### Symptom
-
-```
-iOS app code signing fails in CI
-Error: "No identity found"
-Works on developer machines
-```
-
-### Phase 1: Root Cause Investigation
-
-**Read Error**:
-```
-error: No signing certificate "iOS Distribution" found
-codesign failed with exit code 1
-```
-
-**Reproduce**:
-- ✓ Works locally with Xcode
-- ✗ Fails in CI every time
-- Multi-layer system: CI → build → keychain → signing
-
-**Gather Evidence at Each Layer**:
-```bash
-# Layer 1: CI environment
-echo "=== Secrets available ==="
-echo "CERT_P12: ${CERT_P12:+SET}${CERT_P12:-UNSET}"
-echo "CERT_PASSWORD: ${CERT_PASSWORD:+SET}${CERT_PASSWORD:-UNSET}"
-# Output: Both SET
-
-# Layer 2: Keychain setup
-echo "=== Keychain state ==="
-security list-keychains
-security find-identity -v -p codesigning
-# Output: No identities found
-
-# Layer 3: Certificate import
-security import cert.p12 -k ~/Library/Keychains/build.keychain -P "$CERT_PASSWORD" -T /usr/bin/codesign
-echo "Import exit code: $?"
-# Output: Exit code 0 (success)
-
-# But still no identity!
-security find-identity -v -p codesigning
-# Output: Still no identities
-```
-
-**Pattern found**: Import succeeds but identity not available
-
-### Phase 2: Pattern Analysis
-
-**Find working examples**:
-```bash
-# Local machine
-security find-identity -v
-# Shows many identities in login keychain
-
-# CI (after import)
-security find-identity -v
-# Shows nothing
-```
-
-**Compare keychain paths**:
-```bash
-# Local
-security list-keychains
-# "~/Library/Keychains/login.keychain-db"
-
-# CI
-security list-keychains
-# Custom build.keychain not in search list!
-```
-
-**Identify difference**: Keychain created but not added to search list
-
-### Phase 3: Hypothesis and Testing
-
-**Hypothesis**: "Identity imported but keychain not in search list, so codesign can't find it"
-
-**Test**:
-```bash
-# Add keychain to search list
-security list-keychains -s ~/Library/Keychains/build.keychain-db
-
-# Check if identity now visible
-security find-identity -v -p codesigning
-# Output: Shows imported identity!
-```
-
-**Confirmed**: Keychain search list was the issue
-
-### Phase 4: Implementation
-
-**Test case** (integration test in CI):
-```bash
-# After fix, verify identity available
-security find-identity -v -p codesigning | grep "iOS Distribution" || exit 1
-```
-
-**Fix**:
-```bash
-# Complete keychain setup
-security create-keychain -p "$KEYCHAIN_PASSWORD" build.keychain
-security list-keychains -s ~/Library/Keychains/build.keychain-db  # Add to search
-security unlock-keychain -p "$KEYCHAIN_PASSWORD" build.keychain
-security import cert.p12 -k build.keychain -P "$CERT_PASSWORD" -T /usr/bin/codesign
-security set-key-partition-list -S apple-tool:,apple: -s -k "$KEYCHAIN_PASSWORD" build.keychain
-```
-
-**Verify**: Code signing succeeds in CI
-
-**Time**: 45 minutes systematic vs 4+ hours of random attempts
-
-## Key Patterns Across Examples
-
-### Common Root Causes
-1. **Configuration differences** (Example 1): Local vs CI environment
-2. **Timing/order issues** (Example 2): Race conditions, initialization order
-3. **Hidden assumptions** (Example 3): Index order matching query
-4. **Multi-layer problems** (Example 4): Issue at component boundaries
-
-### Systematic Approach Benefits
-- **Faster resolution**: 15-45 minutes vs 2-4 hours
-- **First-time fix**: 95%+ success rate
-- **No new bugs**: Targeted fixes don't break other things
-- **Knowledge gained**: Understanding root cause prevents recurrence
-
-### Red Flags That Would Have Failed
-- "Just try adding the secret" (skips investigation)
-- "Add try-catch around failing code" (masks problem)
-- "Increase timeout" (hides real issue)
-- "Maybe clear cache?" (random guess)
-
-## Summary
-
-Systematic debugging:
-1. Saves time (15-45 min vs 2-4 hours)
-2. Fixes correctly first time (95% vs 40%)
-3. Prevents new bugs (targeted vs random changes)
-4. Builds understanding (root cause vs symptom)
