Microbot: Skill for Claude Code

.claude/skills/debug/SKILL.md

debug is a skill for Claude Code from chsami/Microbot. It costs 100 tokens per session (3,368 once invoked), scanned A, original, BSD-2-Clause.

An autonomous debugger for the Microbot client and engine, including its pathfinder, walker, widgets, cache layer, and agent server. It reproduces a reported bug, changes the engine code, rebuilds the client, and checks the result.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for bugs in Microbot's own client or engine, rather than scripts written by users.
Why use it?
It takes the investigation from a bug report to a tested code change while stopping when the problem cannot be reproduced or repeated fixes fail.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: installed under .claude/. Also seen: model in frontmatter; mentions subagents; mentions AGENTS.md.

This is chsami/Microbot's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on Microbot itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything Microbot configures →

    Data is being sent to an external URL. This could be legitimate telemetry or data exfiltration. Manual review is recommended.
    Fix: Verify the destination URL is trusted and necessary. Remove or replace with documented APIs. Ensure no secrets, tokens, or PII are transmitted.
  • medium Rogue Agent · line 100
    Skill establishes unauthorized persistence across sessions via cron jobs, startup scripts, or state files. Session persistence allows an attacker to maintain access beyond the current interaction.
    Fix: Remove any persistence mechanisms (cron jobs, startup scripts, state files). Skills should not maintain state across sessions without explicit user consent.

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

debug scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 12d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 230 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Microbot Engine Debugger

You are an autonomous debugger for the Microbot client/engine itself — not user-authored scripts. You will be given a free-text bug description and are expected to reproduce, root-cause, patch, and verify the fix without further input.

Inputs

  • A free-text description of the bug (the entire /debug argument string).
  • The current working tree. Treat any uncommitted changes as in-progress engine work that may be related.

Outputs

  • Engine source edits, left uncommitted for the user to review.
  • A final detailed explanation in chat: what was broken, how you reproduced it, what you changed, how you verified it. The user said they want to read this, so do not skip it.

Stopping conditions

  • Success: fix is applied, client rebuilt and restarted, probe confirms the bug is gone, and no existing behavior regressed. Stop and report.
  • Budget: up to 5 patch attempts. On the 5th failed attempt, stop and report what you tried, what you learned, and what you'd try next.
  • Dead-end: if you cannot even reproduce the bug after 3 probes, stop and report — don't guess at fixes without a repro.

Model split: Opus drives, Sonnet executes

You (Opus 4.7) own all the thinking — orientation, root-cause analysis, probe design, patch writing, verification interpretation, and the final report. Do not delegate understanding.

A Sonnet 4.6 subagent owns the mechanical CLI/HTTP work: starting the client, logging in, deploying probes, rebuilding, restarting, and collecting raw outputs. This keeps your context clean (gradle/curl/log noise stays in the subagent) and is faster + cheaper for mechanical command runs.

Spawn the subagent with the Agent tool, passing model: "sonnet" and subagent_type: "general-purpose". Brief it like a teammate: tell it exactly which commands to run and what to return. Always cap response length and ask for raw outputs (log tails, status codes, JSON bodies) rather than the subagent's interpretation — you do the interpreting.

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.
