Rr Debugger

What it does

The rr-debugger skill provides debugging capabilities for Raptor, a Rust-based runtime environment. It allows you to inspect the state of your Raptor programs during execution, identify errors, and understand program flow. This is achieved through features like breakpoints, variable inspection, and stack traces within the Raptor environment.

When to use it

• Troubleshooting unexpected behavior: Use rr-debugger when a Raptor program isn't working as expected and you need to pinpoint the cause.
• Understanding complex logic: Step through code execution to better understand how intricate algorithms or data structures are behaving.
• Debugging performance issues: Identify bottlenecks in your Raptor programs by observing variable values and function calls during runtime.
• Learning Raptor internals: Use it to explore how the Raptor runtime itself operates.

Key capabilities

• Breakpoints: Set breakpoints within Raptor code to pause execution at specific lines.
• Variable inspection: Examine the values of variables during program execution.
• Stack traces: View the call stack to understand the sequence of function calls leading to a particular point in the program.

Example prompts

• "Set a breakpoint on line 25 of main.rs."
• "Inspect the value of variable 'x' at this point."
• "Show me the current call stack."

Tips & gotchas

The rr-debugger skill is specifically designed for use with Raptor programs written in Rust. Familiarity with Rust debugging concepts and the Raptor runtime environment will be helpful to maximize its effectiveness.
