About

This Claude Skill helps developers distinguish correlation from causation when investigating why something happened. It provides methods to identify root causes versus symptoms, test competing hypotheses, and control for confounding variables. Use it when debugging systems, analyzing failures, or whenever you need to determine "why did this really happen?"

  • Test competing hypotheses with structured causal analysis.
  • Control for confounding variables — avoid false root cause conclusions.
  • Move from "it happened after X" to "X actually caused it" with evidence.
