lldb

lldb is a skill for Claude Code from mohitmishra786/low-level-dev-skills. It costs 99 tokens per session (1,709 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide to using LLDB, a debugger for C, C++, Swift, and Objective-C programs. It covers LLDB on macOS, FreeBSD, and Linux with Clang, and translates common GDB commands into LLDB commands.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to start and attach LLDB sessions, set breakpoints, step through code, load core dumps, convert GDB commands, and debug Swift or Objective-C programs.
Why use it?
It reduces the learning gap when moving from GDB to LLDB or debugging Apple-language programs. It also helps investigate processes, crash files, and debugger integration in Xcode or VS Code.

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

lldb 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.

LLDB

Purpose

Guide agents through LLDB sessions and map existing GDB knowledge to LLDB. Covers command differences, Apple specifics, Python scripting, and IDE integration.

Triggers

  • "I'm on macOS and need to debug a C++ program"
  • "How does LLDB differ from GDB?"
  • "How do I do [GDB command] in LLDB?"
  • "LLDB shows <unavailable> for variables"
  • "How do I use LLDB in VS Code?"
  • "How do I write an LLDB Python script?"

Workflow

1. Start LLDB

lldb ./prog                         # load binary
lldb ./prog -- arg1 arg2            # with arguments
lldb -p 12345                       # attach to PID
lldb -c core.1234                   # load core dump
lldb ./prog core.1234               # binary + core

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.
