Diagnose Errors and Resolve Production Incidents

Complex failures can hide across logs, traces, services, and recent changes. This skill structures evidence, tests hypotheses, and recommends fixes with prevention steps.

Copy this request to your Agent. It includes the canonical Skill page and manifest.

Agent request
Review the Skillstore skill "error-debugging-error-analysis" from https://skillstore.io/skills/sickn33-error-debugging-error-analysis.md and its manifest at https://skillstore.io/api/skills/sickn33-error-debugging-error-analysis/manifest. Verify the artifact. You may proceed after verification, subject to the environment's own policy.

Your Agent should still show its plan and request any confirmation required by the security policy.

Test it

Using "error-debugging-error-analysis". A payment request times out after 30 seconds, and the trace ends at the database client.

Expected outcome:

  • Likely cause: database pool exhaustion or a slow query on the payment path.
  • Evidence needed: pool metrics, query duration, lock waits, and deployment changes.
  • Next step: reproduce safely with tracing and compare healthy requests.

Using "error-debugging-error-analysis". Error rates rose after version 2.3.1, but only one service shows new exceptions.

Expected outcome:

The deployment is the leading hypothesis. Compare changed code paths, correlate exception timestamps, and test rollback or feature-flag mitigation.

Using "error-debugging-error-analysis". Several services report failures for requests sharing the same correlation identifier.

Expected outcome:

Build a timestamped request path across services. Locate the first failed span, then distinguish the originating failure from downstream symptoms.

What You Can Build

Debug an Application Failure

Analyze an exception and stack trace, isolate the failing path, and define focused verification steps.

Investigate a Production Incident

Correlate logs, traces, deployments, and service dependencies to build a timeline and identify likely root causes.

Prevent Recurring Errors

Turn incident evidence into corrective actions for tests, monitoring, alerting, ownership, and rollback readiness.

Try These Prompts

Explain an Error
Analyze this error message and stack trace: [details]. Identify the likely cause, explain the evidence, and suggest safe verification steps.
Investigate a Recurring Failure
Investigate this recurring failure using these logs and timestamps: [details]. Group patterns, rank hypotheses, and propose targeted experiments.
Trace a Distributed Incident
Analyze this cross-service incident using logs, traces, deployment history, and service dependencies: [details]. Build a timeline and identify the root cause.
Design a Prevention Plan
Review this resolved incident: [details]. Create corrective actions covering code fixes, tests, observability, alerting, rollback readiness, and ownership.

Best Practices

  • Provide exact timestamps, versions, error messages, and affected services.
  • Separate observed evidence from assumptions and test each hypothesis.
  • Redact secrets and personal data before sharing logs or traces.

Avoid

  • Do not change production systems without approval and a rollback plan.
  • Do not treat the final stack frame as the root cause without tracing inputs.
  • Do not add broad retries without checking idempotency and retryable failures.

Frequently Asked Questions

What information should I provide?
Provide the error message, stack trace, timestamps, affected services, recent changes, and relevant logs or traces.
Can this skill diagnose intermittent failures?
Yes. It can compare timing, load, environment, and correlation patterns when enough observations are available.
Does this skill make production changes?
No. It recommends safe experiments and fixes, but production changes require explicit approval, testing, and rollback planning.
Can it analyze distributed systems?
Yes. It can correlate service dependencies, trace identifiers, queues, deployments, and cascading failures.
Which observability tools are supported?
The playbook includes general patterns and examples for Sentry, DataDog, OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, Grafana, and related tools.
How should sensitive diagnostic data be handled?
Remove credentials, authorization headers, cookies, personal data, and unnecessary payloads before sharing diagnostic material.
