What is the G code to do the same (the skirt) ?

I encountered recently a big problem of adhesion of the first layer.

After tried all the solutions, I finally solved this by replacing the extruder (I've a brand new one in stock, just in case).

However, I noticed that in all my tests with the PLA or the ABS that the skirt always had a perfect adhesion, even with no glue, damaged extruder, etc...An impossible dream until now.
Is it possible to modify the G-Code from the start (or some parameters somewhere else) to print the first layer with the same parameters as the skirt? If so, what are these parameters?

Thank you,

I think trying to chase the skirt is an error.

Can we see a sample of your first layer please? 
perhaps the first layer of the Prusa Logo!

I've no more problem to print (see picture).

But I'm curious to know if the skirt settings could be applied to the first layer for any reason 😋 .

I would think that it would be very easy to find the gcode that does the skirt.  It should be the first few lines of extrusion right after the prime line.  You can see what feed rate and how much material is extruded.

I agree, however, this is not the way to chase a first layer adhesion issue.
