prismer-python-debugpy

prismer-python-debugpy is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Prismer-AI/PrismerCloud. It costs 19 tokens per session (3,601 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of tools for debugging Python programs, including an interactive command prompt and remote debugging for running processes.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for stepping through Python scripts, examining variables, and attaching to a running or remote Python process.
Why use it?
It helps you pause a program, inspect its state, and investigate faults instead of relying only on log messages.

About the project

Prismer Cloud is an infrastructure layer for AI agents that provides shared learning, compressed context, persistent memory, collaboration, messaging, tasks, identity, and workspaces. It is for agents and the people building or using long-running agent systems that need information and outcomes to persist across sessions. The catalogue entries provide skills, hooks, agents, instructions, and a plugin for using Prismer Cloud.

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

prismer-python-debugpy 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.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/dap_client.py), 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 378 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Prismer execution contract

This is the uniquely named prismer-python-debugpy skill, adapted from Hermes. Use the actual tools exposed by the executing host; examples using terminal, process, delegate_task, vision_analyze or browser_* are not tool registrations. Missing dependencies do not hide this skill. Report command startup, version, account/permissions and task-specific live verification separately. Use task-owned artifact paths and existing user authorization; do not change shared accounts, Runtime/provider configuration, global security settings or unrelated work. See NOTICE.md and LICENSE for resource provenance. Runtime availability and upstream-entry suppression are owned by the integration layer.

Python Debugger (pdb + debugpy)

Overview

Three tools, picked by situation:

Tool When
breakpoint() + pdb Local, interactive, simplest. Add breakpoint() in the source, run normally, get a REPL at that line.
python -m pdb Launch an existing script under pdb with no source edits. Useful for quick poking.
debugpy Remote / headless / "attach to already-running process." Talks DAP, scriptable from terminal, works for long-lived processes (gateway, daemon, PTY children).

Start with breakpoint(). It's the cheapest thing that works.

When to Use

  • A test fails and the traceback doesn't reveal why a value is wrong
  • You need to step through a function and watch a collection mutate
  • A long-running process (hermes gateway, tui_gateway) misbehaves and you can't restart it
  • Post-mortem: an exception fired in prod-ish code and you want to inspect locals at the crash site
  • A subprocess / child (Python _SlashWorker, PTY bridge worker) is the actual bug site

Don't use for: things print() / logging.debug solve in under a minute, or things pytest -vv --tb=long --showlocals already reveals.

pdb Quick Reference

Inside any pdb prompt ((Pdb)):

Command Action
h / h cmd help
n next line (step over)
s step into
r return from current function
c continue
unt N continue until line N
j N jump to line N (same function only)
l / ll list source around current line / full function
w where (stack trace)
u / d move up / down in the stack
a print args of the current function
p expr / pp expr print / pretty-print expression
display expr auto-print expr on every stop
b file:line set breakpoint
b func break on function entry
b file:line, cond conditional breakpoint
cl N clear breakpoint N
tbreak file:line one-shot breakpoint
!stmt execute arbitrary Python (assignments included)
interact drop into full Python REPL in current scope (Ctrl+D to exit)
q quit

What ships with it

3 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.
