Troubleshoot

Purpose

This skill investigates and explains unexpected chat agent behavior using direct log files.

Use this skill for questions like:

  • Why did this request take so long?
  • Why was a tool or subagent called?
  • Why did instruction/skill/agent files not load?
  • Why was a tool call blocked or failed?
  • Why did the model not follow expectations?

Base conclusions on evidence from logs. Do not guess.

Data Source

  • Target session log directory/directories for analysis: {{VSCODE_TARGET_SESSION_LOG}}
