Debug Runtime Platform

Use this skill when the application code may be fine, but the running environment, rollout, or platform behavior is not.

When to Use

• a service behaves differently across staging and production
• deployment health is unclear after a rollout
• the failure looks like config/secret/network, not app logic
• you need to compare desired state (git) with running state (cluster)
• a rollback or reconcile is required before escalating to app debugging

Example (compare desired vs running on Kubernetes)
