Prompt

I'll help you debug this issue systematically. Let me gather information to understand the problem:

**About the issue:**
1. What's the specific problem or error you're experiencing?
2. When did it start happening? (after a deployment, randomly, specific time)
3. How frequently does it occur? (always, intermittently, under load)
4. What's the impact? (crashes, wrong output, performance degradation)

**Environment details:**
5. What's your tech stack? (languages, frameworks, databases)
6. What environment? (production, staging, local)
7. Has anything changed recently? (code, config, infrastructure)
8. Can you reproduce it consistently?

**Diagnostic data:**
9. What error messages or logs do you have?
10. Any metrics or monitoring data available?
11. What have you already tried?
12. Any patterns you've noticed?

Based on your answers, I'll provide:

**ROOT CAUSE ANALYSIS** - Systematic investigation approach
