symphony: Skill for Claude Code

.agents/skills/debug/SKILL.md

debug is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from odysseus0/symphony. It costs 33 tokens per session (1,073 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of debug, Apache-2.0.

A debugging skill for investigating stuck runs and execution failures by tracing Symphony and Codex logs with issue and session identifiers. It covers stalled runs, repeated retries, startup failures, turn failures, and related problems.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to investigate stalled or failing runs, correlate Linear issues with Codex sessions, and classify failures such as timeouts or app-server startup errors.
Why use it?
It helps connect a project ticket to the correct run and follow that run through its logs to identify the failure cause.

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one. Also seen: installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents); mentions Codex.

This is odysseus0/symphony's own configuration. It tells Claude Code and Codex how to work on symphony 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 symphony configures →

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 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 1mo 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

Goals

  • Find why a run is stuck, retrying, or failing.
  • Correlate Linear issue identity to a Codex session quickly.
  • Read the right logs in the right order to isolate root cause.

Log Sources

  • Primary runtime log: log/symphony.log
    • Default comes from SymphonyElixir.LogFile (log/symphony.log).
    • Includes orchestrator, agent runner, and Codex app-server lifecycle logs.
  • Rotated runtime logs: log/symphony.log*
    • Check these when the relevant run is older.

Correlation Keys

  • issue_identifier: human ticket key (example: MT-625)
  • issue_id: Linear UUID (stable internal ID)
  • session_id: Codex thread-turn pair (<thread_id>-<turn_id>)

elixir/docs/logging.md requires these fields for issue/session lifecycle logs. Use them as your join keys during debugging.

Quick Triage (Stuck Run)

  1. Confirm scheduler/worker symptoms for the ticket.
  2. Find recent lines for the ticket (issue_identifier first).
  3. Extract session_id from matching lines.
  4. Trace that session_id across start, stream, completion/failure, and stall handling logs.
  5. Decide class of failure: timeout/stall, app-server startup failure, turn failure, or orchestrator retry loop.

Commands

# 1) Narrow by ticket key (fastest entry point)
rg -n "issue_identifier=MT-625" log/symphony.log*

# 2) If needed, narrow by Linear UUID
rg -n "issue_id=<linear-uuid>" log/symphony.log*

# 3) Pull session IDs seen for that ticket
rg -o "session_id=[^ ;]+" log/symphony.log* | sort -u

# 4) Trace one session end-to-end
rg -n "session_id=<thread>-<turn>" log/symphony.log*

# 5) Focus on stuck/retry signals
rg -n "Issue stalled|scheduling retry|turn_timeout|turn_failed|Codex session failed|Codex session ended with error" log/symphony.log*

Investigation Flow

  1. Locate the ticket slice:
    • Search by issue_identifier=<KEY>.
    • If noise is high, add issue_id=<UUID>.
  2. Establish timeline:
    • Identify first Codex session started ... session_id=....
    • Follow with Codex session completed, ended with error, or worker exit lines.
  3. Classify the problem:
    • Stall loop: Issue stalled ... restarting with backoff.
    • App-server startup: Codex session failed ....
    • Turn execution failure: turn_failed, turn_cancelled, turn_timeout, or ended with error.
    • Worker crash: Agent task exited ... reason=....
  4. Validate scope:
    • Check whether failures are isolated to one issue/session or repeating across multiple tickets.
  5. Capture evidence:
    • Save key log lines with timestamps, issue_identifier, issue_id, and session_id.
    • Record probable root cause and the exact failing stage.

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.
