debugging

debugging is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Frontal-so/outbound-skills. It costs 124 tokens per session (1,281 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A Clay troubleshooting skill for diagnosing errors in tables, data enrichments, and automated workflows.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to check input mappings, conditional runs, auto-update settings, AI prompts, provider choices, and other workflow configuration problems.
Why use it?
It helps identify common causes of empty or incorrect results, repeated updates, and unnecessary credit use.

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

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 4d 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.

Top 10 Common Mistakes

1. No Conditional Runs on Paid Enrichments

Symptom: Credits burning on rows that already have data. Fix: Add conditional run to every paid column: /field is empty. Non-negotiable.

2. Auto-Update Enabled During Testing

Symptom: Credits consumed every time new rows are added. Fix: Set table-level auto-update to OFF while building. Only enable when workflow is finalized.

3. Wrong Input Column Mapped

Symptom: Enrichment returns empty or wrong results. Fix: Verify input mapping. Email waterfall needs domain, not company name. LinkedIn enrichment needs profile URL, not company URL.

4. AI Prompt Doing Too Many Things

Symptom: Claygent/AI returns inconsistent or partial results. Fix: One task per AI column. Split "check site + classify + extract" into 3 separate columns. GPT-4 Mini for each.

5. No Null Handling in Formulas

Symptom: Formula errors, "undefined" in cells. Fix: Add || "" to every variable reference: ({{field}} || ""). Always handle empty cells.

6. Duplicate Rows Consuming Double Credits

Symptom: Same contact enriched multiple times. Fix: Enable auto-dedupe before importing. Key: email or LinkedIn URL. Note: case-sensitive ("Clay" != "clay").

7. Using Expensive AI Models for Simple Tasks

Symptom: 3x credit cost with no quality improvement. Fix: GPT-4 Mini / Claygent Neon for 90% of tasks. Only use GPT-4/Claude Opus for complex reasoning.

8. Not Saving Enriched Data Externally

Symptom: Paying to re-enrich the same records in a new table. Fix: Push all enriched data to CRM or Supabase ($30/month for 11.4M+ records). Query before re-enriching.

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.

debugging is a skill published in the GitHub repository Frontal-so/outbound-skills (5 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 124 tokens to every session and 1,281 once invoked, about $0.0006 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.
