When a test should be green but stays red, or a self-check command fails during Trellis subtask implementation/verification, use this non-deviable rigid script for systematic root-cause pinpointing and minimal fix. Used when Codex / Claude Code drives a small-parameter model like qwen3.6 35b—small models quickly spiral out of control when debugging freely; this skill uses "one change at a time, must re-run after change, no guessing" iron rules to lock it on a narrow path with defensive regression checks.
