Find Cause

jamie-bitflight/find-cause

Wraps investigation requests with evidence-chain discipline. Use when asked to find out why something happens, research a root cause, debug an issue, or investigate unexpected behavior. Transforms vague investigation requests into reproducible-proof investigations with a 5-step protocol — disambiguate, reproduce, read source, build evidence chain, present findings. Invoke with /find-cause followed by a description of what to investigate.
