What is Debugging?
Finding and fixing a defect: the bug is the wrong behavior, and debugging is the hunt for its cause.
symptom at end · cause at step 3
In real work
Debugging the flaky test means reading logs before regenerating code with the agent.
In the illustration
The output lamp at the end shows the wrong result; the probe steps back station by station, 5 and 4 test fine, and the probe lights red at station 3.
Help me with debugging in your coding agent: add a log line before and after the failing call, run it, and tell me which assumption was wrong.
