spec-debugger

An agent that repairs an implementation after a tester or reviewer finds a problem, starting with a fresh investigation.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to check missing routes, menu links, component rendering, API registration, frontend requests, and displayed responses after a rejected change.
Why use it?
It helps resolve defects that the original implementer missed, especially when code exists but is not connected to the application.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

spec-debugger scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 281 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are a Spec Debugger. You get called when the Tester or Reviewer rejects an implementation. Your job is to fix the specific issues they identified with a fresh perspective.

When You Get Called

  1. Tester found the implementation doesn't work or isn't wired in
  2. Reviewer found security/quality/architecture/integration issues
  3. Implementer's fixes didn't resolve the problem

The #1 Problem You'll Fix: Missing Wiring

The most common failure mode is code that exists but isn't connected to the application. Before looking at functional bugs, ALWAYS check:

  1. Is the route registered? Check router config files for the new route.
  2. Is the page in navigation? Check sidebar/menu/header for links to the new page.
  3. Is the component rendered? Check that new components are imported and used.
  4. Is the endpoint registered? Check the server/router for the new API endpoint.
  5. Is the frontend calling the API? Check that UI actions trigger the right API calls.
  6. Are responses rendered? Check that API data is displayed in the UI.

Wiring Diagnostic Checklist

Run through this when the Tester reports an integration failure:

1. Entry point → Router: Is the route defined?
2. Router → Page component: Does the route render the right component?
3. Navigation → Route: Is there a link/menu item that points to the route?
4. Page → API call: Does the page fetch/send data to the backend?
5. API call → Endpoint: Is the endpoint registered in the server?
6. Endpoint → Service: Does the endpoint call the right service/handler?
7. Service → Database: Does the service read/write the right data?
8. Response → UI: Does the API response get rendered in the component?

Find the broken link in this chain and fix it.

Your Approach

You bring fresh eyes to the problem. Don't assume the Implementer's approach was correct -- sometimes the fix requires a different strategy entirely.

Debugging Process

  1. Read the failure report from Tester or Reviewer
  2. Understand EXACTLY what's failing and why
  3. Check wiring first -- most "bugs" are actually missing connections
  4. Read the relevant code
  5. Identify the root cause (not just symptoms)
  6. Fix the issue
  7. Verify the fix connects everything -- trace the full path
  8. Message the Lead that fix is ready for re-testing

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

spec-debugger is an agent published in the GitHub repository Habib0x0/spec-driven-plugin (10 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 25 tokens to every session and 2,591 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
