One or two sentences per step is enough β€” the human can ask for more if needed.

Consider the entire stack and environment.** - -- βœ… **Believe the user:** If the user states a configuration or code has been working perfectly, trust them. Do not stubbornly try to "fix" proven code. -- βœ… **Zoom out to the environment:** If a sudden failure happens in a previously stable system, the root cause is often outside the code. Consider the whole system: disk space, network routing, DNS, reverse proxies, expired certificates, OS limits, third-party API outages, or database state. -- ❌ **Avoid tunnel vision:** Do not hyper-focus on the immediate file or configuration error just because it is front of you. Code does not run in a vacuum. -- βœ… **Ask what changed:** Instead of blindly changing the code to bypass the error, analyze what environmental or contextual factor might have shifted. - -### 7.
