debugging-broken-jobs
Triage entry-point for any "the job ran but something's wrong" situation in a Friday workspace. Loads when a job tool returns `output-error`, `success: false`, `summary: ""`, `artifactIds: []`, or any session with `status: failed`. Routes to the right sibling debug skill.

npx skills add friday-platform/friday-studio --skill debugging-broken-jobs --agent claude-code

How do I install it?

Where does this skill come from?
From friday-platform/friday-studio, a repository with 98 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
