- 2. **Pattern Analysis** - Find working examples, compare against references, identify differences
- 3. **Hypothesis and Testing** - Form single hypothesis, test minimally, one variable at a time
- 4. **Implementation** - Create failing test case, implement single fix, verify

- ## When 3+ Fixes Fail
-
- Stop and question the architecture. Pattern of repeated failures indicates architectural problems, not implementation bugs.
-
- ## Red Flags (STOP and Follow Process)
-
- - "Quick fix for now"
- - "Just try changing X"
- - Proposing solutions before tracing data flow
- - "One more fix attempt" (when already tried 2+)
-
- ## Agents Used
-
- - Process agents defined in `systematic-debugging.js`
-
- ## Tool Use
-
- Invoke via babysitter process: `methodologies/superpowers/systematic-debugging`
