Use when the user asks to ”debug this”, ”fix this error”, ”investigate this bug”, or ”troubleshoot a failure”.
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
# Bug Detective A systematic debugging workflow for investigating and resolving code errors, exceptions, and failures. Provides structured debugging methods and common error pattern recognition. ## Core Philosophy Debugging is a scientific problem-solving process that requires: 1. **Understand the problem** - Clearly define symptoms and expected behavior 2. **Gather evidence** - Collect error messages, logs, stack traces 3. **Form hypotheses** - Infer possible causes based on evidence 4. **Verify hypotheses** - Confirm or eliminate causes through experiments 5. **Resolve the issue** - Apply fixes and verify ## Debugging Workflow ### Step 1: Understand the Problem Before starting to debug, clarify the following information: **Required information to collect:** - Complete error message content - Exact location of the error (filename and line number) - Reproduction steps (how to trigger the error) - Expected behavior vs actual behavior - Environment info (OS, versions, dependencies) **Question template:** ``` 1. What is the exact error message? 2. Which file and line does the error occur at? 3. How can this issue be reproduced? Provide detailed steps. …

How to install
mdr add fourteen1416/academic-agent-toolkit/dev-debug@sha256:5c2d890feb2eb2a7The line at the top of this page pins the label v0.1.0, 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.
