debug-cli

debug-cli is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from justrach/codegraff2. It costs 49 tokens per session (1,621 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of debug-cli, Apache-2.0.

A debugging workflow for the Forge command-line application, including its commands, options, argument handling, and interactive behavior.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when adding or changing CLI commands, fixing command-line bugs, updating options, or investigating conversation behavior with Forge's non-interactive prompt flag.
Why use it?
It gives a repeatable way to inspect the current command interface, reproduce problems, and verify changes without committing them.

Skill for Claude CodeCodex

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one.

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is ./target/debug/forge --help.

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

debug-cli 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.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/test_cli.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

CLI Debug Skill

This skill provides a systematic workflow for debugging and verifying changes to the forge CLI application.

Core Principles

  1. Always get latest docs first: Run --help to see current commands and options
  2. Use -p for testing: Test forge by giving it tasks with the -p flag
  3. Never commit: This is for debugging only - don't commit changes
  4. Clone conversations: When debugging conversation bugs, clone the source conversation before reproducing

Workflow

1. Build the Application

Always build in debug mode after making changes:

cargo build

Never use cargo build --release for debugging - it's significantly slower and unnecessary for verification.

2. Get Latest Documentation

Always start by checking the latest help to understand current commands and options:

# Main help - do this first
./target/debug/forge --help

# Command-specific help
./target/debug/forge [COMMAND] --help

# Subcommand help
./target/debug/forge [COMMAND] [SUBCOMMAND] --help

3. Test with -p Flag

Use the -p flag to give forge a task to complete without interactive mode:

# Test with a simple prompt
./target/debug/forge -p "create a hello world rust program"

# Test with specific functionality
./target/debug/forge -p "read the README.md file and summarize it"

# Test with complex tasks
./target/debug/forge -p "analyze the code structure and suggest improvements"

4. Debug with Conversation Dumps

When debugging prompts or conversation issues, use conversation dump to export conversations. The command automatically creates a timestamped file:

# Dump conversation as JSON (creates: YYYY-MM-DD_HH-MM-SS-dump.json)
./target/debug/forge conversation dump <conversation-id>

# Export as HTML for human-readable format (creates: YYYY-MM-DD_HH-MM-SS-dump.html)
./target/debug/forge conversation dump --html <conversation-id>

# Use dumped JSON to reproduce issues
./target/debug/forge --conversation 2025-11-23_12-28-52-dump.json

Files

What ships with it

2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.
