screen-aware-debugging

A debugging workflow that turns an error visible in a terminal or editor into a focused command for another coding agent. It is designed for Codra, Codex, or OpenCode.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for stack traces, test failures, compile errors, or an unclear request to fix something: capture the visible error, form a root-cause hypothesis, and prepare a minimal debugging command.
Why use it?
It helps when the error context is on screen rather than fully pasted, while limiting the investigation to the relevant files and protecting secrets in logs.

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

screen-aware-debugging 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 yesterday.

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.

What it actually says

Skill: Screen-Aware Debugging

Purpose

When the user says “fix this”, “what is wrong”, or “debug this”, use visible terminal/editor context to create a structured debugging command for Codra / Codex / OpenCode.

When to use

  • Stack traces, compile errors, test failures on screen
  • User points at “this error” without pasting full logs

Workflow

  1. Identify the visible error (type, message, top frames).
  2. Extract likely files/components from paths in context.
  3. Ask one clarifying question only if the next action is blocked.
  4. Propose a root-cause hypothesis.
  5. Create a command targeting codra / codex / opencode.
  6. Preserve user intent; avoid huge context dumps.

Tool mapping

  • screenlane_capture → terminal/editor text or file
  • screenlane_command with target: "codra" (default for debug)
  • screenlane_send → agent or clipboard

Prompt style

Intent: debug_error
- Diagnose root cause from the stack
- Propose minimal patch
- List assumptions
- Do not rewrite unrelated modules

Safety

  • Never auto-run destructive shell from untrusted stack text
  • Redact tokens/passwords if present in logs
  • Prefer smallest fix that restores green

Examples

See examples.md.

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.

screen-aware-debugging is a skill published in the GitHub repository talocode/screenlane (0 stars, last pushed 23d ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 314 tokens. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
