# R&D Debug Pipeline
## Overview
The debug pipeline is a focused workflow for fixing isolated bugs without a full `/start` decomposition. A dedicated debugger diagnoses the bug and hands off a structured report to the Builder — the Builder fixes without re-investigating.
**Core principle:** Diagnosis and fix are separate roles. The Builder receives a complete diagnosis report; they do not re-investigate the root cause.
## When to Use
- A specific bug has been reported and is reproducible
- The bug is isolated (1-2 files, not a design flaw)
- A full `/start` pipeline is unnecessary overhead
## Pipeline Phases
### Phase 1: Reproduce
Confirm the bug is real and understand the exact conditions that trigger it. Document the minimal reproduction steps. If the bug cannot be reproduced after reasonable effort, return status `CANNOT_REPRODUCE`.
### Phase 2: Diagnose
Apply `rnd-framework:rnd-debugging` methodology to find root cause. Produce the diagnosis report (format below) saved to `$RND_DIR/diagnosis/T<id>-diagnosis.md`. Return status `DIAGNOSED` or `ESCALATE`.
### Phase 3: Fix (Builder handoff)
The Builder receives the diagnosis report and the pre-registration from the debugger. The Builder does NOT re-investigate — they implement the fix described in the report using `rnd-framework:rnd-building` discipline.
### Phase 4: Verify
An independent Verifier checks the fix against the success criteria in the pre-registration. Same process as the standard pipeline — the Ver
