## Done means
Finish only when each of these exists (contract v1):
- `debug-report`: a `DEBUG REPORT` with Symptom, Root cause, Fix, Evidence, Regression test and Status filled in (`none: <why>` where the skill's own stop rule leaves one empty).
- `check-after-last-edit`: a test or repro command run after your last edit.
`~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-skill-contract check` reads them from the transcript (docs/skill-routing-and-contracts.md). For an item that truly does not apply, run `~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-skill-contract waive <item> --reason "<why>"` (this session only; it counts as a miss).
## Shared preamble (load first)
This skill follows gstack shared preamble `4e82fa4c839f` (AskUserQuestion format, voice, writing, completeness and completion rules). If your Read of that file, headed by this id, is still in context, do not read it again; otherwise Read `~/.claude/skills/gstack/investigate/sections/preamble.md` in full before the command below. A section or subsection here with a shared heading replaces the shared one.
