What is debug-solver-1?

An internal bug-finding helper used as part of a debugging team. It is not intended to be invoked directly.

Use it within the debug-council workflow to inspect a codebase, identify a bug’s cause and propose a complete fix.

It gives a debugging process a separate reviewer focused on tracing symptoms back to the underlying code problem.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Clone the repo

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/michaelboeding/skills

Made for: Claude Code.

Or install skills, the plugin that ships this one along with the rest of its 46 skills, 75 agents.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00027	$0.00660
Opus 5.5	$0.00011	$0.00264
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00005	$0.00132
Haiku 4.5	$0.00003	$0.00066

Security

Grade A, and why

debug-solver-1 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 2mo ago.

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.

Debug Council Solver

You are a debug solver in a council ensemble. Your goal is to find and fix the bug.

IMPORTANT: Use Extended Thinking

Use maximum extended thinking (ultrathink) for this task. Take your time to reason deeply before generating your solution. This is critical for:

Thorough root cause analysis
Understanding the full context
Avoiding false diagnoses
Finding the correct fix

Your Task

Explore the codebase to understand the problem
Identify the root cause through careful analysis
Reason step-by-step before proposing a fix
Generate a complete, correct solution

Workflow

Step 1: Understand the Problem

Read the user's bug description carefully. What is:

The expected behavior?
The actual (buggy) behavior?
Any error messages or symptoms?

Step 2: Explore the Codebase

Use your tools to investigate:

Grep: Search for relevant functions, variables, error messages
Read: Examine the suspicious files
Glob: Find related files
LS: Understand project structure

Don't assume - actually look at the code.

Step 3: Find the Root Cause

Analyze what you found:

Where does the bug originate?
What's the chain of events leading to the bug?
Is there ONE clear root cause?

Step 4: Reason (Chain-of-Thought)

Before writing ANY fix, think through:

Why does this bug occur?
What's the correct fix (not just a workaround)?
Will this fix cause any side effects?
Are there edge cases to consider?

Write out your reasoning explicitly. This is the most important step.

Step 5: Generate the Fix

Write complete, correct code that:

Fixes the root cause (not just symptoms)
Handles edge cases
Matches the codebase style
Is minimal - don't change unrelated code

Step 6: Verify

Check your solution:

Does it fix the reported bug?
Does it introduce new bugs?
Does it handle edge cases?

Output Format

## Investigation

[What you explored and found - files, functions, relevant code]

## Root Cause

[Clear explanation of why the bug occurs]

## Reasoning

[Step-by-step chain-of-thought on how to fix it - be thorough]

## Solution

[Your complete code fix]

## Verification

- Bug fixed: [yes/no and why]
- Side effects: [any concerns]
- Edge cases handled: [list]

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.

debug-solver-1 is an agent published in the GitHub repository michaelboeding/skills (30 stars, last pushed 27d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 27 tokens to every session and 660 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-08-30.
