Wraps investigation requests with evidence-chain discipline. Use when asked to find out why something happens, research a root cause, debug an issue, or investigate unexpected behavior. Transforms vague investigation requests into reproducible-proof investigations with a 5-step protocol — disambiguate, reproduce, read source, build evidence chain, present findings. Invoke with /find-cause followed by a description of what to investigate.

1 high severity finding. You should review these findings carefully before considering using this skill.
The skill handles credentials insecurely by requiring the agent to include secret values verbatim in its generated output. This exposes credentials in the agent’s context and conversation history, creating a risk of data exfiltration.
Insecure credential handling detected (high risk: 1.00). The evidence-chain protocol requires capturing and quoting complete command outputs, environment variables, and exact file contents/lines as evidence (including "all arguments, flags, environment variables"), which forces the LLM to include secret values (API keys, tokens, passwords, cookies) verbatim in its output.
