Diagnose

Use this skill inside Codex when a lane is blocked, a symptom is vague, or the next useful move is to decompose the failure before editing code. diagnose is a non-gating helper skill.

Output

Produce:

  • observed symptom
  • likely failure slices
  • missing evidence or missing reproduction steps
  • smallest next probe
  • exact next trigger, usually the owning lane or $maestro

Rules

  • Decompose the problem before proposing broad fixes.
  • Prefer the smallest reproducible boundary that can confirm or kill a hypothesis.
  • Keep release-state ownership with the gated lane that is blocked.
  • Escalate assumptions clearly when evidence is still incomplete.
