Walks you from "something is wrong" to a verified diagnosis using evidence, not guesses. Works for software bugs, broken appliances, stalled projects, or interpersonal issues.
A diagnosis (the cause) plus a verified fix attempt or, if unfixable yet, a clear "next thing to test."
This is a guided workflow.
Write one sentence: "When X, I expect Y, but I get Z." If you can't write this sentence, the symptom isn't precise enough yet. Sharpen.
What changed since this last worked? Be specific: "I updated the app" or "we moved offices" or "she started a new job." If "nothing changed," challenge that — something always did.
Find the smallest scenario that still produces the symptom. Strip away anything optional. The smaller the failing case, the easier the cause is to see.
State: "I think the cause is X because of evidence Y." One hypothesis at a time.
Design a check that would prove the hypothesis wrong if it's wrong. Run the check. Record what you observed.
After fixing: reproduce the original symptom scenario. The symptom must be gone. Otherwise the fix didn't fix it (despite what you'd like to believe).
Return to Stage 4 when a hypothesis is disproved. Return to Stage 1 when bisection reveals the symptom statement was wrong.
Input: My monthly invoice automation worked all year, last week it sent invoices to the wrong customers.
Use when the meta-builder routes to kind=discipline. Generates a discipline spell with the rule, excuses table, warning signs, and hard gates.
Use when the user wants to capture a repeatable task as a reusable spell, or asks "how do I build a workflow / skill / framework for X"
Use when the meta-builder routes to kind=subagent. Generates a spell that dispatches one or more subagents to do work in parallel or in isolation.
Use when the meta-builder routes to kind=workflow. Generates a workflow spell with explicit stages, checkpoints, and loop-back conditions.
Use when composing multiple spells into a chain that runs end-to-end (e.g. brainstorm -> plan -> execute -> verify).
Use when browsing what spells are available - bundled seeds, your personal library, or both. Filter by kind, audience, or update status.
