Workflow

Step 1: Analyze Logs

Run the analyzer:

bun ./scripts/analyze-logs.mjs

Or read raw logs:

cat .debug/debug.log

Step 2: Evaluate Hypotheses

For each hypothesis, assign one verdict:

  • CONFIRMED: Log evidence proves this is the cause
  • REJECTED: Log evidence rules this out
  • INCONCLUSIVE: Need more instrumentation

Always cite specific log entries as evidence:

Hypothesis A: CONFIRMED

  • Log at 14:32:05.123 shows items is undefined at function entry
  • Log at 14:32:05.156 shows error "Cannot read property 'length' of undefined"
  • Root cause: order.items not provided by caller

Hypothesis B: REJECTED

  • Logs show loadUser completed at 14:32:05.100
  • renderProfile started at 14:32:05.200
  • Order is correct, no race condition

Step 3: Take Action

If hypothesis CONFIRMED:

  1. Implement the fix
  2. Keep instrumentation in place (do NOT remove logs yet)
  3. Provide new reproduction steps to verify fix
  4. After user reproduces, compare before/after logs — cite specific entries showing the fix worked

If INCONCLUSIVE:

  1. Add more instrumentation to narrow down
  2. Provide new reproduction steps

If ALL hypotheses REJECTED:

  1. Generate NEW hypotheses from different subsystems
  2. Add instrumentation for new hypotheses
  3. Provide new reproduction steps

Step 4: Next Iteration

Provide exact reproduction steps:

<reproduction_steps>

  1. [Step 1]
  2. [Step 2] ... </reproduction_steps>

End with:

Follow these steps, then run /debug-reproduced when done, or /debug-fixed if the issue is resolved.

Critical Rules

  1. NEVER fix without 100% confidence with log proof
  2. NEVER remove instrumentation before verified fix
  3. ALWAYS cite specific log entries — "Log at 14:32:05 shows X was null"
  4. Iteration is expected — Failed fixes mean new hypotheses, not giving up
  5. 3 failed fixes = step back — Reconsider assumptions, look at different subsystems
  6. Taking longer is better — Thorough debugging beats quick guesses

Note on Log Accumulation

Logs accumulate across iterations (not auto-cleared). This allows comparing behavior across reproduction cycles. Run bun ./scripts/clear-logs.mjs if you need a fresh start.
