Hunt: Diagnose Before You Fix

Prefix your first line with 🥷 inline, not as its own paragraph.

Update check (non-blocking). Once per conversation, run bash <skill-base-dir>/scripts/check-update.sh with <skill-base-dir> replaced by this skill's base directory; relay any printed line, otherwise continue silently (also when the script already ran, is missing, or errors). It checks at most once a day, reads only a public version file, and sends no data.

A patch applied to a symptom creates a new bug somewhere else.

Outcome Contract

• Outcome: the root cause is identified before any fix is applied.
• Done when: one sentence explains the cause, every observed symptom fits it, and the fix or handoff is verified against a reproducible check.
• Evidence: source trace, repro command or UI path, logs or state, targeted test/build output, and runtime evidence for UI or native defects.
• Output: root cause, fix or handoff, verification result, and any unswept sibling risks.

Do not touch code until you can state the root cause in one sentence:

"I believe the root cause is [X] because [evidence]."

Name a specific file, function, line, or condition. "A state management issue" is not testable. "Stale cache in useUser at src/hooks/user.ts:42 because the dependency array is missing userId" is testable. If you cannot be that specific, you do not have a hypothesis yet.
