Repo Troubleshooting Guide

Category: Dev Tools  ·  Sub-category: tools-misc  ·  Last updated:
tool:docker
Generate a clean, professional troubleshooting guide (a TROUBLESHOOTING.md) by analyzing a code repository — detecting its tech stack and mining real evidence (raised exceptions, error strings, env vars, ports, Docker services, CI) to document common failure modes with step-by-step fixes. Use this whenever the user wants to create, build, or generate a troubleshooting doc, guide, runbook, or ops reference for a repo, codebase, or project; wants to document common errors, setup problems, failure modes, or "how to fix X"; or points Claude at a repository and asks for a debugging/operations reference. Trigger even if the user doesn't say the exact word "troubleshooting" — e.g. "document the common errors in this repo", "make a debugging runbook", "build a setup-issues guide", "write an ops doc for this project".

From the source SKILL.md

Turn a repository into a structured, professional troubleshooting guide. The guide is grounded in two sources: (1) the detected stack (languages, frameworks, services, infra) and (2) mined evidence from the actual code (raised exceptions, human-readable error strings, env vars, ports, Docker services, CI, and TODO/FIXME markers). Generic advice is a fallback; repo-specific evidence always wins.

What this skill does

Repo Troubleshooting Guide is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the tools-misc sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/repo-troubleshooting-guide/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
