Systematic Debugging Workflow

I'll help you debug issues systematically using the scientific method - hypothesis formation, testing, and iterative refinement.

Arguments: $ARGUMENTS - error description, reproduction steps, or context

Token Optimization

Target: 50% reduction (4,000-6,000 → 1,500-3,000 tokens)

Core Optimization Strategies

1. Hypothesis-Driven Debugging (Not Exhaustive Analysis)

  • AVOID: Reading entire codebase to find bugs
  • DO: Form hypotheses about likely causes, test top 2-3 first
  • Token savings: 90% (200 tokens vs 2,000+ tokens)
  • Pattern: Prioritize recently changed files, common failure patterns

2. Git Diff for Recently Changed Files (Likely Bug Source)
