Locate the root cause of a CONFIRMED failure via backward-then-forward semi-formal tracing. Trigger when the user provides a stack trace, failing assertion, error message, or specific wrong-value observation — "find the bug", "this test is failing", "track down this crash", "why is...

# Logic-Lens — Fault Locate ## When to Use Use this skill when you need locate the root cause of a CONFIRMED failure via backward-then-forward semi-formal tracing. Trigger when the user provides a stack trace, failing assertion, error message, or specific wrong-value observation — "find the bug", "this test is failing", "track down this crash", "why is... ## Setup Use lazy loading per `../_shared/common.md` §13: 1. Read `../_shared/common.md` only for language, Iron Law, Fault Confidence, scope routing, Remedy discipline, config fields, and loading budget. 2. Read only the relevant step in `logic-locate-guide.md` as you reach it. 3. Load `../_shared/logic-risks.md`, `../_shared/semiformal-guide.md`, `../_shared/semiformal-checklist.md`, and `../_shared/report-template.md` on demand when the current step needs them. ## Process **Step 0. Language + scope routing.** Detect language per `common.md` §1. Confirm a concrete failure exists (stack trace, failing assertion, specific wrong value). If only a suspicion, switch to logic-review. **Step 1. Understand the failure** (guide Step 1) — observed behavior, expected behavior, reproduction path. **Step 2. Identify the entry point** (guide

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills --skill logic-locate --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills, a repository with 44,414 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.
