debug-skill

Let your coding agent debug like a human developer.

Set breakpoints, step through code, evaluate expressions — the way you actually debug.

If this saves you a debugging session, please star the repo — it helps others find it.

AI coding agents (Claude Code, Codex, Opencode, Cursor) are stuck with `print` statements and guesswork. **debug-skill** gives them what human developers have: a real debugger they can actually use. It ships two things:

• A Claude Code skill — teaches Claude how to debug: when to set breakpoints, how to step through code, how to inspect state
• The dap CLI — a stateless CLI wrapper around the Debug Adapter Protocol so any agent can drive a real debugger from Bash

The Skill

Install the skill, and Claude debugs your code the way *you* would — not with print statements.

The `debugging-code` skill gives Claude structured knowledge of the debugging workflow: setting breakpoints, stepping through execution, inspecting locals and the call stack, evaluating expressions mid-run. It uses the `dap` CLI as its tool.
