Rails Debugging Workflow

Systematic approach to debugging with:

1. Error reproduction
2. Stack trace analysis
3. Root cause identification
4. Fix implementation with tests
5. Regression prevention

Usage

/rails-debug [error description or stack trace]

Examples

/rails-debug NoMethodError in TasksController#index
/rails-debug Users can't login after password reset
/rails-debug Slow query on bundles index page

Process

1. Reproduce Error - Create minimal reproduction case
2. Analyze Stack Trace - Identify exact failure point
3. Root Cause - Determine underlying issue
4. Create Beads Issue - Track fix (if beads available)
5. Implement Solution - Fix with appropriate specialist
6. Add Tests - Regression tests to prevent recurrence
7. Verify Fix - Ensure error resolved

Activation

{{ERROR_DESCRIPTION}}

Please activate the Rails Debugging workflow:
1. Analyze the error above
2. Create beads issue for tracking the fix
3. Use codebase-inspector to understand affected code
4. Implement fix using appropriate specialist
5. Add regression tests
6. Verify fix resolves error

Start with error analysis.

This workflow uses simplified phases focused on debugging:

• Investigation (instead of full inspection)
• Fix Planning (instead of full implementation plan)
• Fix Implementation
• Test Addition
• Verification
