Debug
This is a structured debugging workflow that walks you through reproduce, isolate, diagnose, and fix steps instead of letting you flail around randomly. You trigger it with an error message, stack trace, or vague complaints like "this broke after the deploy" or "works in staging but not prod." It produces a formatted debug report with root cause analysis and prevention suggestions. If you have monitoring or source control connectors hooked up, it'll pull logs, recent commits, and deploy history to correlate with the issue. The four step framework is obvious in retrospect but genuinely helpful when you're staring at a cryptic 500 error at 2am and need to think systematically instead of cargo culting fixes from Stack Overflow.
