# Systematically Debug and Fix Errors

Systematically debug and fix errors

## Instructions

Follow this comprehensive debugging methodology to resolve: **$ARGUMENTS**

1. **Error Information Gathering**
   - Collect the complete error message, stack trace, and error code
   - Note when the error occurs (timing, conditions, frequency)
   - Identify the environment where the error happens (dev, staging, prod)
   - Gather relevant logs from before and after the error

2. **Reproduce the Error**
   - Create a minimal test case that reproduces the error consistently
   - Document the exact steps needed to trigger the error
   - Test in different environments if possible
   - Note any patterns or conditions that affect error occurrence

3. **Stack Trace Analysis**
   - Read the stack trace from bottom to top to understand the call chain
   - Identify the exact line where the error originates
   - Trace the execution path leading to the error
   - Look for any obvious issues in the failing code

4. **Code Context Investigation**
   - Examine the code around the error location
   - Check recent changes that might have introduced the bug
