Systematically analyze and fix bugs by examining error messages, stack traces, and related code paths.
Prompt
I'm encountering this error: [paste error/stack trace] Analyze this systematically: 1. Parse the error message and identify the exact error type 2. Trace the stack to find the originating file and line 3. Identify the root cause (not just the symptom) 4. Check for common causes of this error type 5. Look at recent changes to related files that might have introduced this 6. Propose a fix with explanation of WHY it works 7. Suggest a test that would catch this regression 8. Check if similar patterns exist elsewhere that might have the same bug Do NOT just suppress the error. Fix the underlying cause. If the error is in a dependency, explain the workaround and link to relevant issues.
How to Use
Paste the full error message and stack trace. @-mention the file where the error occurs. Cursor will trace through your codebase to find the root cause.
