Does this skill fix the bug automatically?

No, this skill is designed to handle the critical investigation and planning phase, ensuring the root cause is fully understood and a validation plan is in place before code implementation begins.

What tools does the skill use to investigate?

The skill utilizes Read, Write, Glob, Grep, and Bash tools to scan your source code, logs, and project structure to find the source of the issue.

Can it help with regression testing?

Yes, one of the primary components of the generated plan is a set of validation commands specifically designed to prove the bug is fixed and hasn't introduced new regressions.

Where are the bug plans stored?

The skill generates standardized markdown files within the 'specs/' directory of your project, following a 'bug- .md' naming convention for easy tracking.

Security & Testing

Generates comprehensive bug fix plans featuring root cause analysis and validation strategies to ensure robust software resolutions.

This skill streamlines the debugging process by guiding Claude through a rigorous investigation phase before any code changes are made. It prompts the model to perform a deep-dive root cause analysis, identify relevant source files, and document a step-by-step resolution plan in a standardized markdown format within your project's specs directory. By requiring explicit validation commands and regression checks, it helps developers prevent recurring issues and ensures that every fix is thoroughly analyzed, documented, and testable.
