forensics
forensics is a Root-cause investigation skill for AI agents, published by gsd-build in the gsd-2 repository on GitHub. Skillspace rates forensics D (64/100) and it passed the safety scan; the rating is based on static analysis only.
Post-mortem a failed GSD auto-mode run. Traces from symptom to root cause using `.gsd/activity/*.jsonl`, `.gsd/journal/YYYY-MM-DD.jsonl`, `.gsd/metrics.json`, and `.gsd/auto.lock`. Produces a filing-ready bug report with file:line references and a concrete fix suggestion. Use when asked to "forensics", "post-mortem", "why did auto-mode fail", "trace the stuck loop", "debug the crash", after `/gsd forensics` is invoked, or when a session ended in an unexpected terminal state. Reads existing artifacts — does NOT re-run anything.
