What it does

Clade Advanced Troubleshooting is an agent skill from jeremylongshore/tons-of-skills-marketplace. Debug complex Claude issues — inconsistent outputs, tool use failures, Use when working with advanced-troubleshooting patterns. streaming problems, and edge cases. Trigger with "claude inconsistent", "anthropic advanced debug", "claude tool use broken", "anthropic streaming issues".

Its SKILL.md is about 1.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/one-pager.md`). Compatibility notes: Designed for Claude Code

It sits in AI & LLM Engineering. The repository describes itself as: Model-agnostic agent-skills platform with a harness-free canonical layer, verified adapters, and the ccpi package manager. Explore at tonsofskills.com. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Working with advanced-troubleshooting patterns
  • With claude inconsistent
  • Anthropic advanced debug
  • Claude tool use broken

Example prompts

  • “claude inconsistent”
  • “anthropic advanced debug”
  • “claude tool use broken”
  • “/clade-advanced-troubleshooting”

Requirements

  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Designed for Claude Code
  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Write, Edit, Grep, Bash(curl:*)

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Review the patterns below
  2. Apply to your codebase
  3. Verify

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit cfae287. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • Read
    • Write
    • Edit
    • Grep
    • Bash(curl:*)

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are typescript).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • platform.claude.com

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

  • Compatibility

    Designed for Claude Code

    From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Clade Advanced Troubleshooting loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.7k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 79 tokens; SKILL.md has 285 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~79
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.2k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~1.7k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Anthropic Advanced Troubleshooting

Overview

Debug complex Claude integration issues that go beyond basic error handling — inconsistent outputs, tool use failures where Claude calls nonexistent tools, streaming connection drops, max_tokens truncation, and image/vision format problems.

Inconsistent Outputs

Symptom: Same prompt gives different answers each time. Cause: temperature defaults to 1.0 (maximum randomness).

typescript
// Fix: Set temperature to 0 for deterministic outputs
const message = await client.messages.create({
  model: 'claude-sonnet-4-20250514',
  max_tokens: 1024,
  temperature: 0, // Deterministic
  messages,
});

Tool Use Failures

Symptom: Claude calls a tool that doesn't exist or sends wrong parameters.

typescript
// Always validate tool calls before executing
const toolUse = response.content.find(b => b.type === 'tool_use');
if (toolUse) {
  const validTools = tools.map(t => t.name);
  if (!validTools.includes(toolUse.name)) {
    console.error(`Claude requested unknown tool: ${toolUse.name}`);
    // Send error back as tool_result
    messages.push({ role: 'assistant', content: response.content });
    messages.push({ role: 'user', content: [{
      type: 'tool_result',
      tool_use_id: toolUse.id,
      is_error: true,
      content: `Tool "${toolUse.name}" does not exist. Available: ${validTools.join(', ')}`,
    }]});
  }
}

Streaming Connection Drops

Symptom: Stream stops mid-response without message_stop event.

typescript
// Detect incomplete streams
const stream = client.messages.stream({ ... });
let gotStop = false;

for await (const event of stream) {
  if (event.type === 'message_stop') gotStop = true;
  // ... process events
}

if (!gotStop) {
  console.error('Stream ended without message_stop — connection dropped');
  // Retry the request
}

max_tokens Truncation

Symptom: Response cuts off mid-sentence.

typescript
const message = await client.messages.create({ ... });

if (message.stop_reason === 'max_tokens') {
  console.warn('Response truncated — increase max_tokens or ask for shorter output');
  // Option 1: Increase max_tokens
  // Option 2: Add "Be concise" to system prompt
  // Option 3: Continue the response with another call
}

Image/Vision Issues

Symptom: Claude says it can't see the image.

  • Max image size: 5MB
  • Supported: PNG, JPEG, GIF, WebP
  • Max 20 images per request
  • Base64 encoding must be correct (no data URI prefix in the data field)
typescript
// Correct image format
{
  type: 'image',
  source: {
    type: 'base64',
    media_type: 'image/png', // Must match actual format
    data: buffer.toString('base64'), // Raw base64, no "data:image/png;base64," prefix
  },
}

Output

  • Inconsistent outputs fixed via temperature control
  • Tool use validated against defined tool names before execution
  • Streaming connection drops detected and retried
  • Truncated responses identified via stop_reason check
  • Image format issues resolved (correct media_type, raw base64, size limits)

Prerequisites

  • Completed clade-common-errors for basic error handling
  • Familiarity with Claude API response structure
  • Access to application logs with full request/response data

Instructions

Step 1: Review the patterns below

Each section contains production-ready code examples. Copy and adapt them to your use case.

Step 2: Apply to your codebase

Integrate the patterns that match your requirements. Test each change individually.

Step 3: Verify

Run your test suite to confirm the integration works correctly.
