# Team Debug
|
|
|
|
Debug complex issues using the Analysis of Competing Hypotheses (ACH) methodology. Multiple debugger agents investigate different hypotheses in parallel, gathering evidence to confirm or falsify each one.
|
|
|
|
## Pre-flight Checks
|
|
|
|
1. Verify `CLAUDE_CODE_EXPERIMENTAL_AGENT_TEAMS=1` is set
|
|
2. Parse `$ARGUMENTS`:
|
|
- `<error-description-or-file>`: description of the bug, error message, or path to a file exhibiting the issue
|
|
- `--hypotheses N`: number of hypotheses to generate (default: 3)
|
|
- `--scope`: investigation scope — `files` (specific files), `module` (module/package), `project` (entire project)
|
|
|
|
## Phase 1: Initial Triage
|
|
|
|
1. Analyze the error description or file:
|
|
- If file path: read the file, look for obvious issues, collect error context
|
|
- If error description: search the codebase for related code, error messages, stack traces
|
|
2. Identify the symptom clearly: what is failing, when, and how
|
|
3. Gather initial context: recent git changes, related tests, configuration
|
|
|
|
## Phase 2: Hypothesis Generation
|
|
|
|
Generate N hypotheses about the root cause, covering different failure mode categories:
|
|
|
|
1. **Logic Error** — Incorrect algorithm, wrong condition, off-by-one, missing edge case
|
|
2. **Data Issue** — Invalid input, type mismatch, null/undefined, encoding problem
|
|
3. **State Problem** — Race condition, stale cache, incorrect initialization, mutation bug
|
|
4. **Integration Failure** — API contract violation, version mismatch, configuration error
|
|
5. **Resource Issue** — Memory leak, connection exhaustion, timeout, disk space
|
|
6. **Environment** — Missing dependency, wrong version, platform-specific behavior
|
|
|
|
Present hypotheses to user: "Generated {N} hypotheses. Spawning investigators..."
|
|
|
|
## Phase 3: Investigation
|
|
|
|
1. Use `Teammate` tool with `operation: "spawnTeam"`, team name: `debug-{timestamp}`
|
|
2. For each hypothesis, use `Task` tool to spawn a teammate:
|
|
- `name`: `investigator-{n}` (e.g., "investigator-1")
|
|
- `subagent_type`: "agent-teams:team-debugger"
|
|
- `prompt`: Include the hypothesis, investigation scope, and relevant context
|
|
3. Use `TaskCreate` for each investigator's task:
|
|
- Subject: "Investigate hypothesis: {hypothesis summary}"
|
|
- Description: Full hypothesis statement, scope boundaries, evidence criteria
|
|
|
|
## Phase 4: Evidence Collection
|
|
|
|
1. Monitor TaskList for completion
|
|
2. As investigators complete, collect their evidence reports
|
|
3. Track: "{completed}/{total} investigations complete"
|
|
|
|
## Phase 5: Arbitration
|
|
|
|
1. Compare findings across all investigators:
|
|
- Which hypotheses were confirmed (high confidence)?
|
|
- Which were falsified (contradicting evidence)?
|
|
- Which are inconclusive (insufficient evidence)?
|
|
|
|
2. Rank confirmed hypotheses by:
|
|
- Confidence level (High > Medium > Low)
|
|
- Strength of causal chain
|
|
- Amount of supporting evidence
|
|
- Absence of contradicting evidence
|
|
|
|
3. Present root cause analysis:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
## Debug Report: {error description}
|
|
|
|
### Root Cause (Most Likely)
|
|
**Hypothesis**: {description}
|
|
**Confidence**: {High/Medium/Low}
|
|
**Evidence**: {summary with file:line citations}
|
|
**Causal Chain**: {step-by-step from cause to symptom}
|
|
|
|
### Recommended Fix
|
|
{specific fix with code changes}
|
|
|
|
### Other Hypotheses
|
|
- {hypothesis 2}: {status} — {brief evidence summary}
|
|
- {hypothesis 3}: {status} — {brief evidence summary}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Phase 6: Cleanup
|
|
|
|
1. Send `shutdown_request` to all investigators
|
|
2. Call `Teammate` cleanup to remove team resources
