fr-debugging

fr-debugging is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from derio-net/super-fr. It costs 134 tokens per session (1,746 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guided debugging workflow that investigates bugs, test failures, or unexpected behavior in a separate workspace and prepares the fix as a reviewed pull request.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to reproduce a problem, find its cause, add a failing test, implement the fix, and submit the result for review. It can reuse an existing isolated workspace or create a fresh fix branch.
Why use it?
It keeps experiments, failing tests, and code changes away from the main codebase while preserving a structured search for the root cause.

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

fr-debugging 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 13d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 121 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

fr-debugging

superpowers:systematic-debugging, wrapped in isolation. The root-cause investigation, the failing test, and the fix all happen in the isolation workspace, so the base repo is never touched and the fix lands as a reviewed PR — the debugging analogue of fr-brainstorming / fr-goal.

Announce at start: "I'm using fr-debugging to find the root cause in isolation."

This skill owns WHERE debugging happens (isolation) and the autonomy contract. It delegates HOW — the Iron Law, the four phases, the supporting techniques — to superpowers:systematic-debugging, invoked unchanged.

0. Isolation first — hard gate

Before ANY command — reproduction, evidence-gathering, instrumentation, reads included; "just check X first" never reorders this:

  • Already inside an active fr isolation workspace? (e.g. a bug found mid-fr-goal implementation) — reuse it. The failing test + fix land on that feature's branch and ride its existing PR; a bug found while building a feature must not spawn a competing PR. Confirm with fr isolation status.
  • Cold start (standalone bug, no active workspace):
    fr isolation up --branch fix/<slug> [--profile <name>]
    
    Name the branch for the bug now (fix/<slug>); the worktree, PR, and cleanup key off it. A cold-start fix/<slug> is cut from freshly-fetched origin/<default> (#322), so the fix is clean of whatever the base checkout is parked on — to debug on the current branch by intent, add --base HEAD. No devcontainer profile → HARD STOP — offer the fr-init interview; there is no unisolated fallback. (Under fr-goal: treat as a blocker — pause, fr-init, resume.)

From here on follow fr-isolation's exec-bridge discipline: read/edit files in the worktree, run every command through fr isolation exec -- …. A broken environment is repaired with fr isolation restart, then rebuild (worktree, cursor and uncommitted work kept), never down --force; a forced down preserves the run record, but the workspace and its uncommitted fix are gone.

fr-debugging is a skill published in the GitHub repository derio-net/super-fr (2 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 134 tokens to every session and 1,746 once invoked, about $0.0005 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 2026-08-31.
