Debugging: guided diagnosis of application bugs, and post-mortem of failed agent sessions.
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
# Debugging Skill Two modes. Pick one based on the request: | Signal | Mode | |---|---| | Guide me, teach debugging, ask me questions, coaching | **Socratic** | | What went wrong, post-mortem, stuck loop, session crashed | **Forensics** | --- ## Mode 1: Socratic Debugging Guide the user to discover root causes through structured inquiry. Never give the answer -- the user must arrive at it. Read relevant code with Read/Grep/Glob before formulating questions; code knowledge makes questions precise. ### Question Progression Follow these 9 phases in order. Each builds evidence for the next. | Phase | Purpose | Example | |-------|---------|---------| | 1. Symptoms | Gap between expected and actual | "What did you expect?" / "What happened instead?" | | 2. Reproducibility | Deterministic or intermittent | "Can you reproduce this consistently?" | | 3. Prior Attempts | Avoid retreading | "What have you already tried?" | | 4. Minimal Case | Reduce search space | "What is the smallest failing input?" | | 5. Error Analysis | Extract signal from output | "Which part of the error message is most informative?" | …

How to install
mdr add notque/vexjoy-agent/debugging@sha256:68c88799ddf6b265The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260919.28d30f9, 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.
