Usage Examples
Prompt Template
I need to debug a [PLATFORM: Android/iOS/Desktop] Lynx application running on a [DEVICE_MODEL]. The issue is [BRIEF_DESCRIPTION]. Use the lynx-devtool skill to inspect the app's state, logs, and network activity. Provide a step-by-step debugging guide.
Example Output
```
# Lynx DevTool Debug Report
**Device:** iPhone 15 Pro (iOS 17.4.1)
**App:** Lynx E-Commerce v2.3.1
**Issue:** Login screen freezes after entering credentials
## Debugging Steps Performed:
1. **Connected to Device**
- Device detected via USB debugging (Android) / Wi-Fi pairing (iOS).
- Lynx DevTool interface initialized.
2. **Inspected App State**
- Current screen: `LoginScreen`
- State variables: `{ isLoading: true, error: null, credentials: { email: "[email protected]", password: "••••••••" } }`
- No unexpected state changes detected.
3. **Analyzed Network Activity**
- API call to `POST /api/auth/login` returned `401 Unauthorized`.
- Response headers: `{ content-type: "application/json", status: "401" }`
- Payload: `{ "error": "Invalid credentials" }`
4. **Checked Logs**
- Error log: `LoginService: Authentication failed - Invalid credentials (User: [email protected])`
- No crashes or uncaught exceptions in the stack trace.
## Root Cause & Fix:
- The issue stems from a backend validation error. The email `[email protected]` is not registered in the test environment.
- **Recommended Action:**
- Verify the test user account exists in the backend database.
- Retry with a valid test account (e.g., `[email protected]`).
## Next Steps:
- Use the `lynx-devtool` to simulate a successful login with valid credentials.
- Monitor the network tab for a `200 OK` response.
