debugging-code

debugging-code is a skill for Claude Code from Bilal140202/the-lord-of-the-skills. It costs 79 tokens per session (2,652 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of debugging-code, MIT.

An interactive debugger for running programs. It lets you pause execution, inspect current variables and the call stack, evaluate expressions, and move through code step by step.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to investigate exceptions, incorrect output, and hard-to-follow execution paths. It supports debugging programs written in Python, Go, JavaScript or TypeScript, Rust, C, and C++.
Why use it?
It helps reveal why a program crashes or produces the wrong result when log statements are not enough. You can inspect the program at the exact point where its state becomes unexpected.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: allowed-tools in frontmatter.

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is bash scripts/install-dap.sh.

Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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

debugging-code 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 9d 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

100% identical to debugging-code — 0 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 268 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Interactive Debugger

Use when a program crashes, produces wrong output, or you need to understand exactly how execution reached a particular state — and running it again with more print statements won't give you the answer fast enough.

You can pause a running program at any point, read live variable values and the call stack at that exact moment, step forward line by line or jump to the next breakpoint, and evaluate arbitrary expressions against the live process — all without restarting.

Setup

This skill uses dap, a CLI tool that background daemon to interact with the debugger via the DAP Protocol, maintain the debugger state, so you can simply interact with it with multiple calls.

If dap isn't installed (check: command -v dap), install it NOW. Ask/notify the user before proceeding to install it.

From Homebrew (macOS)

brew install AlmogBaku/tap/dap

Installer script:

bash scripts/install-dap.sh

Install from sources:

go install github.com/AlmogBaku/debug-skill/cmd/dap@latest

This tool is open-sourced and available on GitHub, maintained and follows best practices.

Supports natively Python, Go, Node.js/TypeScript, Rust, C/C++, and any other language that supports DAP.

If a debugger backend is missing or fails to start, see references/installing-debuggers.md

For all commands and flags: dap --help or dap <cmd> --help.

Starting a Session

dap debug <file> launches the program under the debugger. Backend is auto-detected from the file extension.

Choose your starting strategy based on what you know:

  • Have a hypothesis — set a breakpoint where you expect the bug: dap debug script.py --break script.py:42
  • Conditional breakpoint — only stop when a condition is met: dap debug script.py --break "script.py:42:x > 5" ( always quote specs with conditions)
  • Multi-file app — breakpoints across modules: --break src/api/routes.py:55 --break src/models/user.py:30
  • No hypothesis, small program — walk from entry: dap debug script.py --stop-on-entry (avoid for large projects — startup code is noisy; bisect with breakpoints instead)
  • Exception, location unknowndap debug script.py --break-on-exception raised (Python) / all (Go/JS)
  • Remote processdap debug --attach host:port --backend <name>
  • Process already running (stuck server, live issue) — attach without restarting: dap debug --pid <PID> --backend <name>

    macOS + Go gotcha: dlv --pid requires SIP disabled (csrutil disable). Prefer starting the program under the debugger instead or attaching to a remote debugger!

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.
