This Skill enables debugging of AI command-line interfaces (like Claude Code or Gemini CLI) in a non-interactive, automated environment, ensuring full capture of all output and debug logs.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Headless Execution: Run AI CLI commands without manual interaction.
  • Full Output Capture: Records all standard output, standard error, and debug logs.
  • Transcript Generation: Converts raw session logs into human-readable Markdown transcripts for analysis.
  • Use Case: Debugging an AI agent's automated workflow that failed mid-execution by reviewing the complete, captured session transcript to pinpoint the exact error.

Quick Start

Run the debug-headless skill to execute a Claude Code command with a specific prompt and capture its output.
