How does the Discover Debugging skill activate?

The skill activates automatically whenever Claude Code detects you are working on debugging, profiling, memory management, or using tools like GDB and LLDB.

What is progressive loading in this context?

Progressive loading is a strategy where a gateway skill loads first to save context, and more detailed skill indices or specific debugging files are loaded only as needed.

Is this skill suitable for production debugging?

Yes, it includes specialized logic for production-specific debugging and distributed systems to help resolve issues in live environments safely.

Can I manually view the full list of available debugging workflows?

Yes, you can run 'cat ~/.claude/skills/debugging/INDEX.md' within Claude Code to see detailed descriptions and usage triggers for every sub-skill.

What specific debugging areas are covered?

It covers 14 distinct areas including browser devtools, concurrency, containers, core dumps, network debugging, Python-specific debugging, and remote systems.
