About
The Systematic Debugging skill prevents 'guess-and-check' behavior by mandating a structured investigative process before any code changes are proposed. By guiding Claude through root cause investigation, pattern analysis, hypothesis testing, and verified implementation, it ensures that bugs are solved at their source rather than masked by superficial patches. This skill is particularly valuable during high-pressure emergencies or when dealing with multi-component systems where data flow is obscured across architectural boundaries, helping developers avoid the trap of 'thrashing' through multiple failed fix attempts.
