Activation

This is the description your AI agent reads to decide when to run this skill — the better it matches your request, the more reliably it fires.

科学调试专家 - 观察(Observe) -> 假设(Hypothesize) -> 实验(Experiment) -> 修复(Fix)
68 charsno explicit “when” trigger
Intermediate

Key capabilities

  • Observe error symptoms
  • Formulate testable hypotheses
  • Execute controlled experiments
  • Verify minimal fixes

How it works

The skill follows a scientific protocol of observation, hypothesis, experimentation, and verification to isolate and resolve bugs.

Inputs & outputs

You give it
Error report or observed behavior
You get back
Verified root cause and fix

When to use scientific-debugging

  • Debugging UI interactions
  • Resolving React state synchronization issues
  • Investigating CSS style conflicts
  • Fixing network request errors

About this skill

Scientific Debugger Skill (v2.0)

Role: 拒绝"猜测驱动开发"。像科学家一样思考,用实验数据定位根因。


核心协议 (The Protocol)

1. 观察 (Observe)

  • 收集现场: 用户报告了什么?错误堆栈是什么?
  • 环境确认: 本地服务器是否运行?
  • 现象复现: 必须 使用 browser_subagent 复现问题 (Visual Proof)。

2. 假设 (Hypothesize)

基于观察,提出 1-3 个可能的根因假设:

  • H1: DOM 事件未冒泡 (Event)
  • H2: 状态更新被闭包捕获 (State)
  • H3: 样式层叠导致的遮挡 (CSS)

3. 实验 (Experiment)

设计最小化实验验证假设:

  • Console Log: 在关键路径打点。
  • Browser Interaction: 模拟用户行为序列。
  • Code Inspection: 检查 view_code_item.

4. 修复与验证 (Fix & Verify)

  • 最小化修复: 只改根因,不附带重构。
  • 回归测试: 再次运行 browser_subagent 确认修复且无副作用。

调试策略库

问题类型推荐工具重点检查
UI 无响应/交互失效browser_subagentpointer-events, z-index, onClick vs onFocus
状态不同步console.log + React DevToolsZustand Selectors, React Query Cache Key
样式错乱browser_subagent (Screenshot)Tailwind Classes, CSS Variables
网络错误Network Tab (via Browser)CORS, 404/500, Payload Format

强制要求

  1. No Blind Fixes: 禁止在未复现问题前修改代码。
  2. Visual Evidence: 对于 UI Bug,必须看截图证明。
  3. Logs are Cheap: 大胆加日志,但修好后记得删。

When not to use it

  • When attempting blind fixes without reproduction

Limitations

  • Requires browser_subagent for visual proof
  • Prohibits blind fixes

How it compares

It mandates a structured, evidence-based debugging loop rather than trial-and-error code changes.
