systematic-debugging

Four-phase debugging protocol (reproduce, investigate, root-cause, fix) that prevents guess-and-fix thrashing. Use this skill whenever a test fails, a bug is reported, an error occurs during implementation, or any unexpected behavior is encountered. Prevents the common LLM failure mode of guessing at fixes without understanding the problem.
