Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill failed 1 of 6 checks. A failure is not proof of bad intent; it means something in the code needs a human to look at it before you run it.

  • No undeclared network calls: failed

    Contacts 17 hosts that are neither well-known infrastructure nor declared in the skill's frontmatter: 12factor.net, agents.stackoverflow.com, api.stackexchange.com, developer.chrome.com, doc.rust-lang.org….

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

About this skill

What it does

The QA Debugging skill assists AI agents in systematically debugging errors found within QA test scripts. It guides the agent through a structured process of identifying root causes, suggesting fixes, and creating prevention plans. The skill emphasizes transforming observed symptoms into evidence-based solutions, including verification steps and regression tests to ensure long-term stability.

When to use it

  • When encountering unexpected errors or failures in QA test scripts.
  • To quickly isolate the cause of a bug by narrowing down potential sources (code path, feature flags, configuration).
  • For identifying and implementing fixes that address root causes rather than just symptoms.
  • To develop regression tests to prevent similar issues from recurring in the future.

Key capabilities

  • Failure Signature Capture: Collects essential information like error messages, stack traces, request IDs, timestamps, build SHAs, environment details, and affected users.
  • Hypothesis Ranking: Generates ranked hypotheses for potential root causes based on collected evidence.
  • Experiment Design: Suggests targeted experiments with expected outcomes to validate or disprove hypotheses.
  • Fix Option Generation: Proposes solutions addressing the identified root cause.
  • Regression Test Target Identification: Recommends appropriate layers (unit, integration, e2e) for creating regression tests.

Example prompts

  • "I'm seeing a 'TypeError: undefined is not an object' error in my test script. Can you help me debug it?"
  • "This test is failing intermittently; can you suggest ways to isolate the cause?"
  • "The QA test failed with this stack trace [paste stack trace]. What are some possible root causes and how should I verify them?"

Tips & gotchas

  • Reproducibility is key: Focus on reducing the issue to a minimal, reproducible input for effective debugging.
  • Root Cause Focus: The skill prioritizes fixing the underlying cause of errors rather than implementing temporary workarounds.
  • Structured Logging: For optimal results, ensure your test environment utilizes structured logs and correlation IDs.
