Debugging Hub

Use this hub for work that begins with a defect, regression, failing test, production issue, or confusing system behavior.

If DEPLOYMENT-PROFILE.md contains debugging defaults, apply those preferences before falling back to the generic routing in this hub.

When To Use

• A test is failing and the cause is unclear
• A user-reported bug needs reproduction and triage
• The system behaves inconsistently across environments or inputs
• A suspected regression needs careful isolation

Start With

• Bug Triage to define the problem, impact, environment, and reproduction path
• Debugging Workflow to isolate root cause and verify a fix

Combine With

• API and Backend Work when the issue is server-side or data-related
• Frontend UI Implementation when the issue is client-side or interaction-related
• Test Strategy when the fix needs coverage
• Release and Change Summary when the resolution should be communicated clearly
• Incident Response and Stabilization when the issue is live, user-impacting, or needs temporary containment before a full fix
• Observability and Operability when logs, metrics, traces, or alerting gaps block diagnosis
• Performance Optimization when the problem is latency, throughput, memory, or rendering related
