What it does
Sourdough Troubleshooter is an agent skill from mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills. Figure out why the loaf came out dense, flat, or gummy — and what to change next bake. Use when asked why is my sourdough [dense/flat/gummy/not rising], my starter isn't bubbling, help fix my bread, or troubleshoot my sourdough. Produces a likely-cause diagnosis from your symptoms and process, the specific fix for the next bake, a starter-health check, and a simple timing/temperature adjustment — no dogma, just the variable that's actually off.
Its SKILL.md is about 980 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
The repository describes itself as: 1255 professional Agent Skills for Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Cursor & Codex — PRDs, postmortems, leases, medical bills, layoffs, go-bags, new countries. Plain markdown, MIT, in… The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- Asked why is my sourdough [dense/flat/gummy/not rising]
- My starter isnt bubbling
- Help fix my bread
- Troubleshoot my sourdough
Example prompts
- “/sourdough-troubleshooter”
Workflow steps
5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Start with the starter. A sluggish starter can't rise dough — confirm it doubles reliably and passes a float test before blaming technique.
- Read the crumb. Gummy = often underbaked or under-fermented; tight and dense = under-proofed or weak starter; flat and spreading =…
- Anchor proofing to temperature, not the clock. A recipe's "4 hours" is for its kitchen; judge by dough behavior (rise, jiggle, poke test)…
- Isolate one change. Fix the single most-likely variable and hold the rest — otherwise you never learn which lever worked.
- Bake it through. Under-baking masquerades as a fermentation problem; check internal temp / longer bake before re-engineering the dough.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1cbf1f0. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
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.
Context cost
Sourdough Troubleshooter loads about 976 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 118 tokens; SKILL.md has 490 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.

- description
- Figure out why the loaf came out dense, flat, or gummy — and what to change next bake. Use when asked why is my sourdough [dense/flat/gummy/not rising], my starter isn't bubbling, help fix my bread, or troubleshoot my sourdough. Produces a likely-cause diagnosis from your symptoms and process, the specific fix for the next bake, a starter-health check, and a simple timing/temperature adjustment — no dogma, just the variable that's actually off.
Sourdough Troubleshooter
Sourdough fails for a short list of reasons — an underpowered starter, under- or over-proofing, weak shaping, or temperature. This reads your symptoms and your process, names the single variable most likely at fault, and tells you what to change next time, instead of drowning you in conflicting internet advice.
What This Skill Produces
- A symptom-based diagnosis — what "dense / flat / gummy / no rise / no ears" most likely means for your process
- The one fix that matters — the single variable to change next bake, not ten at once
- A starter check — is it strong enough to rise the dough (float test, feeding rhythm, timing of use)
- A timing/temperature tweak — proofing time adjusted for your kitchen's warmth
- What to keep the same — so you change one thing and actually learn from it
Required Inputs
Ask for these if not provided:
- The symptom — dense, flat, gummy crumb, no oven spring, pale crust, tight/sour
- Your starter — how old, feeding schedule, how bubbly, float test result
- The process — hydration, bulk time, shaping, cold proof or not, bake temp/vessel
- Your kitchen — rough temperature (dough proofs much faster when warm)
- What changed — worked before and stopped, or first attempts
Framework: Change One Variable
- Start with the starter. A sluggish starter can't rise dough — confirm it doubles reliably and passes a float test before blaming technique.
- Read the crumb. Gummy = often underbaked or under-fermented; tight and dense = under-proofed or weak starter; flat and spreading = over-proofed or weak shaping.
- Anchor proofing to temperature, not the clock. A recipe's "4 hours" is for its kitchen; judge by dough behavior (rise, jiggle, poke test) and adjust for your warmth.
- Isolate one change. Fix the single most-likely variable and hold the rest — otherwise you never learn which lever worked.
- Bake it through. Under-baking masquerades as a fermentation problem; check internal temp / longer bake before re-engineering the dough.

Output Format
Loaf: [symptom] · starter [age/activity] · kitchen ~[temp]
Most likely cause: [diagnosis] — because [symptom + process detail]. Change this next bake: [one specific fix]. Keep the same: [so the test is clean].
Starter check: [strong / needs building — do X]. Proofing tweak: [more/less time for your kitchen temp; how to judge doneness].
Quality Checks
- Diagnosis ties the specific symptom to a likely cause
- Recommends changing one variable, not many
- Includes a starter-strength check
- Proofing advice is tied to temperature/dough behavior, not a fixed clock
- Rules out under-baking before blaming fermentation
Anti-Patterns
- Changing five things at once so nothing is learned.
- Blaming technique when the starter is simply weak.
- Clock-based proofing advice that ignores kitchen temperature.
- Dogma ("you must do X") over the variable that's actually off.
- Missing under-bake and re-engineering a fine dough.
Example Trigger Phrases
- "My sourdough is dense and gummy — what went wrong?"
- "Loaf came out flat and spread sideways. Why?"
- "My starter isn't bubbling anymore, help."
- "No oven spring and a pale crust — what do I change?"
- "It worked last month and now every loaf is a brick."
