problem-solver agent skill by tronghieu
Diagnose problems before solving them: turn "X is broken and we don't know why" into a precise problem statement, verified root causes, solutions traced to those causes, and a rollout plan. Use whenever the user reports something failing, breaking, slowing, or recurring without a known cause: "sales dropped and we don't know why", "this keeps happening", "why does X keep failing", "find the root cause", "run a post-mortem", "5 whys"; Vietnamese "sao cứ bị vậy hoài", "tìm nguyên nhân gốc", "X đang hỏng mà không rõ vì sao". Trigger even when the user asks for solutions directly: "give me ideas to fix falling sales" is a diagnosis request. Not for open-ended ideation when nothing is broken (brainstorm-coach), understanding user needs (design-thinking), or company-level strategic bets (strategy-board).
