Performs systematic root cause analysis to identify the true source of bugs, errors, and unexpected behavior through structured investigation phases — not just treating symptoms. Use when a user reports a bug, crash, error, or broken behavior and needs to debug, troubleshoot, or investigate why something is not working; especially for complex or intermittent issues across multiple components.

What this skill can do

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'root-cause-analysis' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'root-cause-analysis' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named root-cause-analysis already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/rohitg00/skillkit' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet 'd2e5c346f73325c326820efd3188dcf2b6eb704f' -- 'packages/core/src/methodology/packs/debugging/root-cause-analysis' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'packages/core/src/methodology/packs/debugging/root-cause-analysis' ~/.agents/skills/'root-cause-analysis' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'root-cause-analysis' ~/.claude/skills/'root-cause-analysis' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
