Diagnose and fix frontend↔backend contract failures by tracing requests, server logs, validation, auth, and responses on both sides. Use for API 4xx/5xx, mismatched payloads, or "frontend and backend disagree". One layer → debug-error.

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

# Frontend-Backend Integration Debug Skill

**Degree of freedom: MIXED.** Which side is wrong `[HIGH freedom]`;
trace-both-sides probes `[LOW freedom — run exactly]`.

Systematic approach to debugging frontend-backend integration issues by analyzing backend
logs, production errors, and source code to identify root causes and fix both sides.

## How to reason

1. **Observe** — status, payload, validation error, both logs
2. **Interpret** — FE omitted a field vs BE schema drifted vs auth/CORS
3. **Classify** — missing-param / type / 404 / 401 / 500 / CORS
4. **Severity** — 500 on a write path outranks a cosmetic 422 message

## Worked example

> **Observe:** FE `GET /api/reports` → 500; BE log `ZodError: expected string, received undefined` on `year`.
> **Interpret:** FE omitted `year`; BE schema required it with no default.
> **Classify:** missing-param — fix FE call and add a clear BE 422/default.
> **Verify:** same request returns 200 with the year bound; both sides updated.

## Self-critique before reporting

- **Both sides read** — FE call and BE schema/logs, not one side guessed
- **Contract named** — status + payload field, not "they disagree"

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add kensaurus/cursor-kenji/debug-fe-be-integration@sha256:ff4562f67c3a0e4f

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260923.938ff43, 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.
