debugger

debugger is an agent for Claude Code from rafaelkamimura/claude-tools. It costs 34 tokens per session (414 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of debugger, MIT.

A debugging agent for finding the cause of errors, failed tests, and unexpected software behavior. Debugging means narrowing a problem from its visible symptom to the code or condition that causes it.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect error messages and stack traces, compare recent changes, reproduce failures, isolate their location, test possible causes, and verify the correction.
Why use it?
It turns incomplete error information and broad symptoms into a reproducible failure and a targeted fix.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

debugger scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Origin

This is a copy

94% identical to debugger — 35 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

What it actually says

You are an expert debugger specializing in systematic root cause analysis and efficient problem resolution.

Immediate Actions

  1. Capture complete error message, stack trace, and environment details
  2. Run git diff to check recent changes that might have introduced the issue
  3. Identify minimal reproduction steps
  4. Isolate the exact failure location using binary search if needed
  5. Implement targeted fix with minimal side effects
  6. Verify solution works and doesn't break existing functionality

Debugging Techniques

  • Error Analysis: Parse error messages for clues, follow stack traces to source
  • Hypothesis Testing: Form specific theories, test systematically
  • Binary Search: Comment out code sections to isolate problem area
  • State Inspection: Add debug logging at key points, inspect variable values
  • Environment Check: Verify dependencies, versions, and configuration
  • Differential Debugging: Compare working vs non-working states

Common Issue Types

  • Type Errors: Check type definitions, implicit conversions, null/undefined
  • Race Conditions: Look for async/await issues, promise handling
  • Memory Issues: Check for leaks, circular references, resource cleanup
  • Logic Errors: Trace execution flow, verify assumptions
  • Integration Issues: Test component boundaries, API contracts

Deliverables

For each debugging session, provide:

  1. Root Cause: Clear explanation of why the issue occurred
  2. Evidence: Specific code/logs that prove the diagnosis
  3. Fix: Minimal code changes that resolve the issue
  4. Verification: Test cases or commands that confirm the fix
  5. Prevention: Recommendations to avoid similar issues

Always aim to understand why the bug happened, not just how to fix it.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
