AI SummaryA structured troubleshooting skill that helps developers systematically isolate root causes and validate fixes through hypothesis testing and evidence collection. Useful for anyone debugging complex issues in code or systems.
Install
Copy this and paste it into Claude Code, Cursor, or any AI assistant:
I want to install the "troubleshoot" skill in my project. Please run this command in my terminal: # Install skill into the correct directory (2 files) mkdir -p .claude/skills/troubleshoot && curl --retry 3 --retry-delay 2 --retry-all-errors -o .claude/skills/troubleshoot/SKILL.md "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/majiayu000/claude-skill-registry/main/skills/data/troubleshoot/SKILL.md" && curl --retry 3 --retry-delay 2 --retry-all-errors -o .claude/skills/troubleshoot/metadata.json "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/majiayu000/claude-skill-registry/main/skills/data/troubleshoot/metadata.json" Then restart Claude Code (or reload the window in Cursor) so the skill is picked up.
Description
Isolate root causes and propose targeted fixes with clear validation steps.
Objective
• Reproduce and isolate the issue. • Identify the most probable root cause and next actions.
When to use
• A bug or failure is reported or observed. • Symptoms are unclear and need narrowing down.
Inputs
• User-reported symptoms, logs, or reproduction steps. • AGENTS.md, rules, relevant code/tests. • Environment details if available.
Process
1) Confirm and restate the symptom; note missing repro info. 2) Form quick hypotheses; prioritize simplest checks. 3) Collect minimal evidence (logs/tests/inputs) to confirm/deny hypotheses. 4) Identify the likely root cause or narrow to top candidates. 5) Propose next actions (fix path or deeper check) and validation steps.
