🐛 Use Case #2 : Bug Investigation avec LSP

🎯 Objectif

Debugger un TypeError cryptique en production avec stack trace incomplet en utilisant LSP pour comprendre la cause racine.

💰 ROI Estimé

⏱️ Time saved : 2-3h → 15min (88% gain)
🎯 Accuracy : Cause racine trouvée 95% vs 60% manual
💵 Cost : ~$1-2 (tokens)
✅ Value : $200-300 (debug time saved)

🔧 Stack utilisé

plaintext

1. LSP Integration (TypeScript/Python)
2. Sub-Agent (debugger specialist)
3. Extended Thinking (root cause analysis)
4. Web Search (error messages + solutions)

📋 Step-by-Step Setup

Step 1 : Enable LSP

Source : https://code.claude.com/docs/en/plugins-reference

bash

# Install LSP plugin for your language
/plugin install vtsls@claude-code-lsps      # TypeScript
/plugin install pyright@claude-code-lsps    # Python
/plugin install rust-analyzer@claude-code-lsps  # Rust

# Enable LSP tool
export ENABLE_LSP_TOOL=1

# Verify
claude --debug
# Look for "LSP tool enabled" in output

Step 2 : Create Debugger Sub-Agent

File : ~/.claude/agents/debugger.md

name: debugger
description: Expert debugger for investigating errors, analyzing stack traces, and finding root causes. Use when debugging production issues, analyzing crashes, or investigating TypeError/undefined errors.
model: sonnet
tools: Read, Grep, LSP, WebSearch
---

# Expert Debugger Agent

You are a senior debugging specialist.

## Investigation Protocol

### Phase 1: Information Gathering
1.Read error logs and stack traces
2.Use LSP to get diagnostics for all files
3.Search web for error message patterns
4.Identify affected code paths

### Phase 2: Root Cause Analysis
-Use **ultrathink** to reason about:
  -Data flow leading to error
  -Type mismatches or undefined values
  -Race conditions or timing issues
  -Configuration or environment factors

### Phase 3: Solution
1.Propose fix with explanation
2.Add defensive checks
3.Suggest tests to prevent regression

## LSP Operations to Use
```bash
# Get all diagnostics
LSP tool: getDiagnostics

# Find symbol definitions
LSP tool: goToDefinition

# Find all references
LSP tool: findReferences

# Get type information
LSP tool: hover

plaintext


#### Step 3 : Launch Debug Session

```bash
claude

Prompt template :

plaintext

Use debugger sub-agent with ultrathink:

Error in production:

TypeError: Cannot read property ‘name’ of undefined at UserProfile.render (UserProfile.tsx:45:18) at updateComponent (react-dom.js:12345)

plaintext


Stack trace shows error at line 45 but root cause unclear.

Steps:
1. Use LSP getDiagnostics on UserProfile.tsx
2. Use LSP findReferences for the problematic property
3. Search web for similar React TypeError patterns
4. Analyze data flow with ultrathink
5. Identify root cause and propose fix

📊 Real Output Example

Source : https://github.com/ktnyt/cclsp

Step 1 : LSP Diagnostics

plaintext

Claude: Let me check for errors using LSP

> Using cclsp.get_diagnostics on UserProfile.tsx

Results:
Found 3 diagnostics:
- Error [TS2304]: Cannot find name 'userData' (Line 10, Column 5)
- Warning [no-unused-vars]: 'config' is defined but never used (Line 25)
- Hint: 'user' may be undefined before access (Line 45)

Step 2 : Extended Thinking

plaintext

`<thinking>`
The hint on line 45 is key. Let me trace the data flow:

1. Component receives `userData` prop (line 10 error suggests it's undefined)
2. Line 45 tries to access `userData.name`
3. Error happens when userData is undefined

Need to find where userData comes from...
</thinking>

Step 3 : LSP Find References

plaintext

Claude: Let me find all references to userData

> Using cclsp.find_references with symbol_name="userData"

Found 5 references:
- UserProfile.tsx:10:1 (prop definition)
- UserProfile.tsx:45:15 (error location)
- UserList.tsx:78:8 (passes userData)
- api/users.ts:56:10 (fetches userData)
- App.tsx:123:5 (conditional render)

Step 4 : Web Search

plaintext

Claude: Searching for similar React patterns

> Using web_search: "React TypeError undefined property async data fetch"

Top result: Common pattern when component renders before async data loads.

Solution: Add null check or loading state.

Step 5 : Root Cause + Fix

markdown

## Root Cause Identified

**Issue:** Component renders before userData loads from API.

**Location:** UserList.tsx:78 passes userData without checking if fetch completed

**Why LSP Helped:**
-getDiagnostics showed the exact line with undefined hint
-findReferences revealed the data flow path
-Confirmed UserList passes data before API resolves

## Proposed Fix

```tsx
// UserProfile.tsx - Add defensive check
const UserProfile = ({ userData }) => {
  // Fix: Add loading state check
  if (!userData) {
    return<LoadingSpinner />;
  }

  return (
    <div className="profile">
      <h1>{userData.name}</h1>  {/* Now safe */}
      `<p>`{userData.email}</p>
    </div>
  );
};

// UserList.tsx - Fix async handling
const UserList = () => {
  const [users, setUsers] = useState([]);
  const [loading, setLoading] = useState(true);

  useEffect(() => {
    fetchUsers().then(data => {
      setUsers(data);
      setLoading(false);  // Fix: Only render after load
    });
  }, []);

  if (loading) return<LoadingSpinner />;

  return users.map(user => (
    <UserProfile userData={user} key={user.id} />
  ));
};

### ⚡ Performance Comparison

**Without LSP :**
- Manual grep through files : 30-45 min
- Guess data flow : 60-90 min
- Trial & error fixes : 30-60 min
- **Total : 2-3 hours**

**With LSP + Claude Code :**
- LSP diagnostics : Instant (< 1s)
- Find references : 50ms vs 45s grep
- Understand flow : 5 min (ultrathink)
- Implement fix : 10 min
- **Total : 15-20 minutes**

**Gain : 88% time saved**

### 🎓 Key Learnings

**LSP Superpowers :**
- **Semantic Understanding** : LSP knows types, not just text
- **Instant Diagnostics** : Real-time errors as code changes
- **Precise Navigation** : Go-to-definition, find-references exact
- **Type Information** : Hover shows what properties exist

**Best Practices :**

```bash
# Always start debug with diagnostics
"First, use LSP getDiagnostics on all affected files"

# Use findReferences to understand scope
"Show me all places this variable is used with LSP findReferences"

# Combine with Web Search
"Search for this error message pattern + LSP findings"

# Extended Thinking for complex flows
"ultrathink about the data flow using LSP type information"

📋 Step-by-Step Setup

Step 1 : Official /security-review Command

Source : https://www.anthropic.com/news/automate-security-reviews-with-claude-code

Note

Citation officielle

“Since setting up the GitHub action, this has already caught security vulnerabilities in our own code and prevented them from being shipped. Last week, our team built a feature that had a remote code execution vulnerability exploitable through DNS rebinding—the GitHub action identified it and it was fixed before the PR was ever merged.”

Usage :

bash

claude
/security-review

What it checks : - SQL Injection - Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) - Authentication bypass - Authorization issues - Insecure cryptography - Command injection - Path traversal - Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) - Insecure deserialization

Step 2 : Install Codacy Guardrails MCP

# Codacy Security Rules

## After ANY file edit
- YOU MUST run `codacy_cli_analyze` for edited file
- If issues found, fix immediately
- This is CRITICAL, not optional

## After ANY dependency installation
- IMMEDIATELY run `codacy_cli_analyze` with tool="trivy"
- Check security vulnerabilities
- Stop if vulnerabilities found

## Repository Setup
- Use `git remote -v` to determine provider
- If repo not in Codacy, run `codacy_setup_repository`

# Database Performance Report

## Slow Queries (>100ms)

### Query 1: User Search (avg 450ms)

```sql
-- BEFORE
SELECT * FROM users
WHERE email LIKE '%@example.com%'
  AND status = 'active';

-- ISSUE: Full table scan, LIKE with leading wildcard

-- FIX: Add GIN index for email patterns
CREATE INDEX idx_users_email_trgm
  ON users USING gin(email gin_trgm_ops);

-- RESULT: 450ms → 12ms (97% faster)

Query 2: Order History (avg 280ms)

sql

-- BEFORE
SELECT * FROM orders o
LEFT JOIN order_items oi ON o.id = oi.order_id
LEFT JOIN products p ON oi.product_id = p.id
WHERE o.user_id = $1;

-- ISSUE: Missing index on user_id

-- FIX: Composite index
CREATE INDEX idx_orders_user_created
  ON orders(user_id, created_at DESC);

-- RESULT: 280ms → 18ms (94% faster)

N+1 Query Detected

Location: src/api/users.controller.ts

typescript

// BEFORE (N+1 problem)
const users = await User.findAll();
for (const user of users) {
  user.orders = await Order.findByUser(user.id);  // N queries!
}

// FIX: Eager loading
const users = await User.findAll({
  include: [{ model: Order }]
});

// RESULT: 1 + N queries → 1 query (100N% faster for N users)

**Agent 3 : Frontend Analyzer Report**

```markdown
# Frontend Performance Report

## Bundle Analysis

**Total Size:** 2.8 MB (too large!)

**Breakdown:**
- Vendor: 1.9 MB (68%)
  - moment.js: 524 KB ❌ (use date-fns instead)
  - lodash: 487 KB ❌ (use lodash-es with tree-shaking)
  - react-icons: 312 KB ❌ (import specific icons only)
- App code: 900 KB

**Code Splitting Opportunities:**

```javascript
// BEFORE: Everything in main bundle
import { AdminPanel } from './admin';

// FIX: Lazy load admin
const AdminPanel = lazy(() => import('./admin'));

// RESULT: Main bundle 2.8MB → 1.1MB (61% reduction)

Core Web Vitals

Current Scores: - LCP: 4.2s ❌ (target: <2.5s) - FID: 180ms ⚠️ (target: <100ms) - CLS: 0.15 ⚠️ (target: <0.1)

LCP Optimization:

html

<!-- BEFORE: Large hero image not optimized -->
<img src="/hero.jpg" alt="Hero">

<!-- FIX: Responsive images + preload -->
<link rel="preload" as="image" href="/hero-800w.webp"
      imagesrcset="/hero-800w.webp 800w, /hero-1200w.webp 1200w">
<img srcset="/hero-800w.webp 800w, /hero-1200w.webp 1200w"
     sizes="(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 1200px"
     alt="Hero">

<!-- RESULT: LCP 4.2s → 1.8s (57% faster) -->

React Performance

Unnecessary Re-renders: 342 detected in last profile

Fix: Memoization

typescript

// BEFORE
const UserList = ({ users }) => {
  return users.map(user => <UserCard user={user} />);
};

// FIX
const UserList = memo(({ users }) => {
  return users.map(user => <UserCard key={user.id} user={user} />);
});

const UserCard = memo(({ user }) => {
  // Component definition
});

// RESULT: Re-renders 342 → 12 (96% reduction)

**Agent 4 : API Latency Expert Report**

```markdown
# API Performance Report

## Endpoint Latency Distribution

**Top 5 Slowest Endpoints:**

| Endpoint | P50 | P95 | P99 | Max |
|----------|-----|-----|-----|-----|
| POST /checkout | 280ms | 1.2s | 3.4s | 8.2s ❌ |
| GET /dashboard | 150ms | 450ms | 890ms | 2.1s ⚠️ |
| GET /search | 95ms | 380ms | 720ms | 1.8s ⚠️ |

## Checkout Endpoint Optimization

**Issue:** Synchronous payment processing + email sending

```typescript
// BEFORE
app.post('/checkout', async (req, res) => {
  const order = await createOrder(req.body);
  await processPayment(order);           // 200ms
  await sendConfirmationEmail(order);    // 150ms
  await updateInventory(order);          // 80ms
  return res.json(order);
});
// Total: 430ms+ synchronous

// FIX: Async processing
app.post('/checkout', async (req, res) => {
  const order = await createOrder(req.body);

  // Return immediately
  res.json(order);

  // Process async
  queue.add('process-order', {
    orderId: order.id,
    tasks: ['payment', 'email', 'inventory']
  });
});
// Response time: 35ms (92% faster)

Caching Strategy

Cache Hit Rates: - Product catalog: 45% ❌ (target: >80%) - User sessions: 78% ⚠️ - API responses: 12% ❌

Fix: Add Redis caching

typescript

// BEFORE
app.get('/products/:id', async (req, res) => {
  const product = await db.products.findById(req.params.id);
  res.json(product);
});

// FIX
app.get('/products/:id', async (req, res) => {
  const cacheKey = `product:${req.params.id}`;

  // Try cache first
  let product = await redis.get(cacheKey);

  if (!product) {
    // Cache miss
    product = await db.products.findById(req.params.id);
    await redis.setex(cacheKey, 3600, JSON.stringify(product));
  } else {
    product = JSON.parse(product);
  }

  res.json(product);
});

// RESULT: Hit rate 45% → 89%, P95 latency 280ms → 8ms

            Execute blue-green deployment to production:

            ## Phase 1: Prepare Green Environment
            1. Deploy new version to green environment
            2. Run database migrations (non-destructive)
            3. Warm up caches
            4. Run comprehensive smoke tests

            ## Phase 2: Traffic Shift
            5. Route 10% traffic to green
            6. Monitor error rates for 5 minutes
            7. If stable, increase to 50%
            8. Monitor for 5 more minutes
            9. If stable, route 100% to green

            ## Phase 3: Cleanup
            10. Mark blue as standby
            11. Keep blue running for 1 hour (rollback window)

            If ANY error rate >0.5%, automatic rollback.

⚡ Key Features Demonstrated

1. Automated Test Generation

Source : https://smartscope.blog/en/ai-development/github-actions-automated-testing-claude-code-2025/

Note

Citation

“Achieves 60% faster performance than existing GitHub Actions + manual testing approaches.”

Pattern :

yaml

# Claude generates tests for changed files
-name: Generate Tests
  run:|
    git diff --name-only HEAD~1 | grep -E '\.(js|py)$' | \
    xargs -I {} claude code "Generate comprehensive test for {}"

2. Interactive PR Reviews

plaintext

Developer: @claude review this PR for security issues

Claude:
✓ Analyzing 12 changed files...
✓ Found 2 security concerns:

1. SQL Injection risk in src/api/search.ts:45
   - Using string concatenation for query
   - Recommendation: Use parameterized queries

2. Missing input validation in src/api/users.ts:78
   - Email not validated before database insert
   - Recommendation: Add Joi validation schema

Would you like me to implement these fixes?

3. Automated Security Scanning

Every PR automatically scanned for: - SQL Injection - XSS vulnerabilities - Authentication bypass - Insecure dependencies - Hardcoded secrets - CSRF vulnerabilities

4. Blue-Green Deployments

Zero-downtime deployments with automatic rollback if error rates spike.

5. Release Notes Generation

Claude automatically generates formatted release notes from commit history.

🎓 Key Learnings

CI/CD Best Practices with Claude :

Always use Plan Mode for deployments

bash

   --permission-mode plan

Prevents accidental destructive operations

Hooks for quality gates
- Lint before commit
- Test after edit
- Validate workflows before push
Progressive deployment strategies
- 10% → 50% → 100% traffic shift
- Monitor error rates at each step
- Automatic rollback on issues
Comprehensive testing
- Unit tests (auto-generated by Claude)
- Integration tests
- E2E tests
- Security tests

Patterns universels

1. Research → Plan → Execute

Fonctionne pour TOUS les use cases complexes

2. Extended Thinking pour décisions

ultrathink = better architecture decisions

3. Web Search pour best practices

Always get current 2025 standards, not 2024 training

4. Hooks pour automation

PreToolUse/PostToolUse = quality gates

5. MCP pour spécialisation

Puppeteer, Codacy, etc. = domain experts

6. Sub-Agents pour parallélisation

4 agents simultanés = 4x faster analysis

💡 Golden Rules

✅ DO: - Research before implementation - Use extended thinking for complex decisions - Combine features (Skills + Web Search + MCP) - Automate with Hooks - Parallelize with Sub-Agents

❌ DON’T: - Jump straight to coding - Skip the planning phase - Ignore web search for current practices - Use manual review when automation exists - Work sequentially when parallelization possible
