Root Cause Tracing skill
When errors occur deep in execution chains, this skill traces back through the call stack to find the original trigger. Uses systematic binary-search debugging to isolate root causes in complex systems.
Why it matters
Complex bugs often manifest far from their origin. This skill prevents agents from treating symptoms instead of causes.
