How it works
Classify the failure boundary
Simple wording signals help distinguish access, network, state, and configuration investigations.
Investigate before fixing
The result gives a reversible sequence that preserves evidence instead of proposing a speculative patch.

Frequently asked questions
Does this diagnose the root cause?
No. It classifies likely investigation boundaries from limited input. Confirm the cause with logs, a reproducible case, and your codebase.
Can I paste production errors here?
Only remove secrets, personal data, customer content, and access tokens first. Use your established incident process for sensitive production investigations.
What if the error is intermittent?
Capture timestamps, request context, versions, and frequency. An intermittent error needs evidence collection before it can be reliably isolated.
