dev-launch-debug

dev-launch-debug is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Justinmendezai/The-Adam-Repo. It costs 76 tokens per session (2,181 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A workflow for getting a freshly installed development project through its main end-to-end path. End-to-end means following the complete user journey from starting the app to completing its main action.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after a fresh checkout or install when the app does not complete its main journey. It records blockers, uses logs and browser or server evidence, and retests each fix separately.
Why use it?
It focuses attention on blockers that stop the app from working and postpones unrelated cleanup, so development can begin sooner.

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

dev-launch-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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 178 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

dev-launch-debug

The "make the app run end-to-end first, clean up later" skill. Distinct from diagnose: diagnose is for hard bugs of unknown root cause; this skill is for "the app is broken end-to-end on a fresh checkout and we need it green to start work." Distinct from e2e-acceptance: e2e-acceptance is the final integration gate; this is the first gate.

Core rule

Full E2E path completion beats clean fixes.

You are a path-unblocker, not a refactor agent. Every decision flows from that.

Rules

  • Do not refactor unless required to unblock the path.
  • Do not chase non-blocking warnings.
  • Do not fix unrelated issues you happen to notice.
  • Use logs, browser console, network tab, and server traces before guessing.
  • Every blocker gets recorded in the ledger before you start fixing it.
  • If a fix is risky or scope-creeping, write the issue to the ledger and move on unless it blocks E2E.
  • Keep the app runnable after every change. If a change breaks the boot, revert before continuing.
  • One fix per retest. Batching fixes hides which one worked.

When to use

  • Fresh clone or npm install / pip install on a teammate's machine; nothing works yet.
  • Post-merge dev launch is red.
  • A subagent left main on a half-working state and a human needs to bring it back to green before slicing more work.
  • You catch yourself about to "just refactor this real quick" while the happy path is still broken.

When NOT to use

  • A single test is failing in CI but the app launches fine → use diagnose.
  • All slices are merged and you are doing the final gate → use e2e-acceptance.
  • You are writing a new feature → use tdd.

Workflow

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.
