sf-debug: Salesforce Debug Log Analysis & Troubleshooting

Use this skill when the user needs root-cause analysis from debug logs: governor-limit diagnosis, stack-trace interpretation, slow-query investigation, heap / CPU pressure analysis, or a reproduction-to-fix loop based on log evidence.

When This Skill Owns the Task

Use sf-debug when the work involves:

  • .log files from Salesforce
  • stack traces and exception analysis
  • governor limits
  • SOQL / DML / CPU / heap troubleshooting
  • query-plan or performance evidence extracted from logs

Delegate elsewhere when the user is:

  • running or repairing Apex tests → sf-testing
  • implementing the code fix → sf-apex
  • debugging Agentforce session traces / parquet telemetry → sf-ai-agentforce-observability

Required Context to Gather First

Ask for or infer:

  • org alias
  • failing transaction / user flow / test name
  • approximate timestamp or transaction window
  • user / record / request ID if known
  • whether the goal is diagnosis only or diagnosis + fix loop

Recommended Workflow

1. Retrieve logs

bash
sf apex list log --target-org <alias> --json
sf apex get log --log-id <id> --target-org <alias>
sf apex tail log --target-org <alias> --color

2. Analyze in this order

  1. entry point and transaction type
  2. exceptions / fatal errors
  3. governor limits
  4. repeated SOQL / DML patterns
  5. CPU / heap hotspots
  6. callout timing and external failures

3. Classify severity

  • Critical — runtime failure, hard limit, corruption risk
  • Warning — near-limit, non-selective query, slow path
  • Info — optimization opportunity or hygiene issue

4. Recommend the smallest correct fix

Prefer fixes that are:

  • root-cause oriented
  • bulk-safe
  • testable
  • easy to verify with a rerun

Expanded workflow: references/analysis-playbook.md


High-Signal Issue Patterns

Issue Primary signal Default fix direction
SOQL in loop repeating SOQL_EXECUTE_BEGIN in a repeated call path query once, use maps / grouped collections
DML in loop repeated DML_BEGIN patterns collect rows, bulk DML once
Non-selective query high rows scanned / poor selectivity add indexed filters, reduce scope
CPU pressure CPU usage approaching sync limit reduce algorithmic complexity, cache, async where valid
Heap pressure heap usage approaching sync limit stream with SOQL for-loops, reduce in-memory data
Null pointer / fatal error EXCEPTION_THROWN / FATAL_ERROR guard null assumptions, fix empty-query handling

Expanded examples: references/common-issues.md


Output Format

When finishing analysis, report in this order:

  1. What failed
  2. Where it failed (class / method / line / transaction stage)
  3. Why it failed (root cause, not just symptom)
  4. How severe it is
  5. Recommended fix
  6. Verification step

Suggested shape:

text
Issue: <summary>
Location: <class / line / transaction>
Root cause: <explanation>
Severity: Critical | Warning | Info
Fix: <specific action>
Verify: <test or rerun step>
