diagnose
🤖 AI Summary
The `diagnose` skill enforces a structured, step-by-step debugging process for complex bugs, requiring explicit justification before skipping any phase (e.g., reproduction, hypothesis, isolation). It guides the agent to methodically rule out causes rather than jumping to conclusions.
How to Install
Claude Code:
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/mattpocock/skills.git && cp skills/skills/engineering/diagnose ~/.claude/skills/diagnose -rA discipline for hard bugs. Skip phases only when explicitly justified.
