What you'll learn
- Symptom → cause: Diagnose by symptom before you rewrite anything.
- The debug loop: One change at a time, or you'll never know what fixed it.
- Too many changes: Change one thing per run so you learn what works.
- Fix this output: Fix the mechanism, then test on several inputs.
- Read the output: Generic lines show exactly where your prompt was empty.
- One-line fixes: Most bugs need one precise line, not a rewrite.
