Use whenever behavior is wrong, tests fail, or the user reports a bug. Docs-first root-cause triage, observation mode, two-failure stop. (Lineage: superpowers/systematic-debugging, godmode/error-recovery, godmode/fault-diagnosis).
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
# Debug — docs before theory, cause before fix ## Prime directive Never patch a symptom you haven't explained. ## Steps (in order) 1. **Reproduce** if you can; else observation mode (his symptoms, exact errors, timing). No blind coding. 2. **Docs ALWAYS** via `research` docs step; vendor changelogs count as docs for post-update breakage. Log it. 3. **Ranked falsifiable theories**, each one-step checkable. 4. **Isolate cause.** "Fix worked" without "cause is X" is not done. 5. **Fix + guard** where guardable; unguardable stacks get honest declaration + recorded manual check. 6. **Two-failure stop:** tried / learned / unexplained / options. His call. ## Cognitive traps - "I know this stack" — confident wrong fixes are born there. Docs. - "One more edit" — the counter exists for this. - "Can't reproduce = guess" — live-system guesses break more than they fix. ## Guardrails - Third same-shape attempt prohibited. - Never silence warnings or catch-alls as a "fix." - No live-production edits without understood cause and rollback path. ## Rung scaling (economy ladder) One-liner: reproduce, fix, smoke-check, done. Micro-spec and above: docs …

How to install
mdr add bmtrnavsky/disciplined-vibe-coding/debug@sha256:08758cc52b7d2fccThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261027.93e47a5, 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.
