Applies systematic tracing and isolation techniques to pinpoint exactly where a bug originates in code. Use when a bug is hard to locate, code is not working as expected, an error or crash appears with unclear cause, a regression was introduced between recent commits, or you need to narrow down which component, function, or line is faulty. Covers binary search debugging, git bisect for regressions, strategic logging with [TRACE] patterns, data and control flow tracing, component isolation, mini…

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

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/'trace-and-isolate' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'trace-and-isolate' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named trace-and-isolate 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 "$d" checkout --quiet 'd2e5c346f73325c326820efd3188dcf2b6eb704f' -- 'packages/core/src/methodology/packs/debugging/trace-and-isolate' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'packages/core/src/methodology/packs/debugging/trace-and-isolate' ~/.agents/skills/'trace-and-isolate' && 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/'trace-and-isolate' ~/.claude/skills/'trace-and-isolate' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
