# Debug: Session Diagnostics Help the user diagnose an issue they're encountering in their current Amplifier session. ## Issue Description $ARGUMENTS If no issue was described, read the session logs and summarize any errors, warnings, or notable issues. ## Instructions 1. **Delegate to the session-analyst agent** to investigate the current session. The session-analyst has specialized knowledge for safely analyzing large event logs (events.jsonl files can contain lines with 100k+ tokens that will crash other tools). Use the delegate tool to dispatch it with the issue description and any relevant context. 2. **Check session configuration.** Review the current session's configuration for common issues: - Bundle composition problems (missing modules, failed loads) - Provider configuration (missing API keys, wrong endpoints) - Tool availability (tools expected but not mounted) - Hook failures (hooks that errored during lifecycle events) Session and project settings are typically at: - Project: `.amplifier/settings.yaml` - User: `~/.amplifier/settings.yaml` - Keys: `~/.amplifier/keys.env` 3. **Check for common patterns:** - Tool calls returning errors repeatedly - Provider rejections (rate limits, auth failures, model not found) - Module mount failures at startup - Context overflow or compaction issues 4. **Explain what you found in plain language.** Avoid jargon. Tell the user: - What went wrong - Why it likely happened - Concrete steps to fix it 5. **If the issue can't be diagnosed from logs alone**, suggest the user: - Run `amplifier doctor` for a system health check - Check `amplifier module list` to verify module availability - Try `amplifier --verbose` to see detailed startup output
