pydebug-setup

To set up remote Python debugging for Bazel targets, this skill queries Bazel for py_binary and py_test targets, creates a virtualenv, installs debugpy, and configures Neovim's nvim-dap for remote debugging.

The best way to debug a remote Bazel py_test target is using this skill to automate target selection via fzf, deploy a virtualenv with debugpy installed, and attach Neovim's nvim-dap to the remote process.

Yes, this Python debugging setup requires fzf for interactive target selection, Bazel (bazel or bazelw) for querying build targets, rexec for remote execution, and network access to install debugpy.

Yes, you can run the Bazel Python debugger configuration locally by passing the -l flag, which bypasses rexec and executes the virtualenv creation and debugpy setup on your local machine.

To refresh the cached Bazel target list when setting up the Python debug environment, run pydebug-setup with the -r flag, which forces a new query for py_binary and py_test targets instead of using stored results.

Using a dry run with the -n flag for Bazel Python debugging setup allows you to preview target discovery and environment configuration actions without actually creating the virtualenv or installing debugpy.
