SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps developers and users diagnose and resolve issues related to the loading and execution of agents, skills, and hooks within the development environment, eliminating guesswork.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Real-time Event Monitoring: Observe system prompt assembly, tool calls, participant resolution, skill loading, instruction matching, hook execution, and agent selection as they happen.
  • Diagnostic Insights: Provides clear explanations for why certain components load or fail to load, and how instructions and hooks are matched or executed.
  • Use Case: When a custom skill fails to activate, open the Agent Debug Panel to inspect the 'Skill Loading' tab and verify the applyTo glob pattern in SKILL.md is correctly configured for the active file.

Quick Start

Open the Command Palette and run the command Developer: Open Agent Debug Panel.

Frequently Asked Questions about agent-debug-panel

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I debug agent loading and hook execution issues in my development environment?▼

You can debug agent loading and hook execution issues by opening the Agent Debug Panel via the Command Palette to monitor real-time system prompt assembly, tool calls, and participant resolution. It provides diagnostic insights into why components fail to activate.

Why does my custom skill fail to activate or load correctly?▼

Your custom skill fails to activate when the applyTo glob pattern in SKILL.md is incorrectly configured for the active file. Inspect the Skill Loading tab in the debug panel to verify pattern matching and resolve loading failures.

How can I monitor system prompt assembly and tool calls in real time?▼

You can monitor system prompt assembly and tool calls in real time by opening the Agent Debug Panel. It displays live diagnostic data on instruction matching, hook execution, and agent selection as they occur within the development environment.

Does the agent debug panel help with troubleshooting participant resolution and instruction matching?▼

Yes, the agent debug panel helps with troubleshooting participant resolution and instruction matching by providing a real-time diagnostic interface that analyzes how instructions are matched and how participants are resolved during agentic workflows.

What is the best way to diagnose hook execution failures during agentic workflows?▼

The best way to diagnose hook execution failures is to open the Agent Debug Panel, which provides clear real-time explanations for how hooks are matched and executed, eliminating guesswork when troubleshooting agentic workflow components.

Can I use the debug panel to inspect agent selection logic without additional dependencies?▼

Yes, you can use the debug panel to inspect agent selection logic without additional dependencies. It operates standalone within the development environment to analyze system prompts, skill loading, and hook execution directly.
