Use when diagnosing or fixing user-reported application bugs. Guides evidence-backed root-cause analysis from symptoms, screenshots, logs, provider failures, background tasks, storage, or desktop lifecycle behavior through a scoped patch and regression tests.

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

# App Bug Forensics

Use this skill when a user reports a bug, screenshot, intermittent failure, or
confusing app behavior. The goal is root cause first, patch second.

## Workflow

1. Preserve the symptom.
   - Identify the exact screen, action sequence, visible message, and affected
     data scope.
   - Inspect screenshots and logs when available.
   - Do not assume the visible error string names the real failing component.

2. Trace the path.
   - Follow the request from UI event to state store, API client, backend route,
     persistence, sidecar/process boundary, and external provider when relevant.
   - Search for all places that can set the visible error state.
   - Check whether the failing request still belongs to the current selection.
   - For AI failures, identify the exact provider, model, transport, profile,
     credential source, timeout, and whether the request reached the provider.

3. Classify likely root cause.
   - Stale async request or route watcher race.
   - Frontend/backend version mismatch or old sidecar process.
   - Missing optional capability being treated as fatal.
   - Provider protocol, model, key, base URL, or auth mismatch.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add sidiangongyuan/codex-skills-library/app-bug-forensics@sha256:a7dcf71b5b0ed9c9

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260712.ef71354, 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.
