Use when encountering any bug, test failure, or unexpected behavior during spec-superflow execution, before proposing fixes. Invoked automatically when build-executor hits a blockage.

One of 7 test cases the skill fixed. Same model, same prompt, with and without the skill.
After 3 failed attempt records in `changes/legacy-parser`, the user explicitly confirmed the decision to abandon the current approach. We ran `ssf debug escalate changes/legacy-parser --decision abandon --reason 'User chose abandon' --confirm`. When should we transition the workflow state to `abandoned`?
| Checked | Without skill | With skill |
|---|---|---|
| The response transitions to abandoned state only after recording the guarded DP-5 receipt. | Missed | Passed |

Core principle: Find root cause before attempting fixes. Symptom fixes are failure.
No fixes without root cause investigation first. If you haven't completed Phase 1, you cannot propose fixes.
Use for ANY technical issue: test failures, bugs, unexpected behavior, performance problems, build failures, integration issues. Especially when under time pressure, "one quick fix" seems obvious, you've already tried multiple fixes, or you don't fully understand the issue.
Don't skip because issue "seems simple" or you're "in a hurry" — systematic debugging is faster than thrashing.
Complete each phase before proceeding.
Scientific method: form a single hypothesis ("I think X is the root cause because Y"), test with the smallest possible change (one variable at a time), verify before continuing. If it didn't work, form a NEW hypothesis — don't add more fixes. When you don't know, say so and ask for help.
