Debug a reproducible symptom with a bounded feedback loop and original-scenario verification.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
> **Host: Codex CLI** — This skill was designed for Claude Code and adapted for Codex. > Cross-reference commands use installed skill names in Codex rather than `/octo:*` slash commands. > Use the active Codex shell and subagent tools. Do not claim a provider, model, or host subagent is available until the current session exposes it. > For host tool equivalents, see `skills/blocks/codex-host-adapter.md`. # Debugging Read `skills/blocks/engineering-method-selection.md` from the installed plugin for review admission. Natural-language requests and `--peer-review` share that policy. Honor host-only requests; risk alone does not authorize paid usage. Run the investigation on the current host. Routine debugging makes zero additional provider dispatches. Use a bounded external reviewer only for `--peer-review`, an explicit independent-review request, or an existing risk policy. <HARD-GATE> DO NOT CHANGE PRODUCTION BEHAVIOR BEFORE REPRODUCING THE SYMPTOM AND TESTING A NAMED ROOT-CAUSE HYPOTHESIS. </HARD-GATE> Read and apply `skills/blocks/debug-feedback-loop.md` from the installed plugin root. Start with the user's observable symptom. Reproduce it, retain its failure …

How to install
mdr add nyldn/claude-octopus/skill-debug@sha256:32344898a4b06b0bThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261006.f655eb0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
