Debug Bridge

AI-friendly debugging for web applications. Enables LLM agents to inspect, interact with, and control web apps via WebSocket.

Quick Start

1. Install the CLI

npm install -g debug-bridge-cli

2. Add to your web app

npm install debug-bridge-browser

// src/debug-bridge.ts
import { createDebugBridge } from 'debug-bridge-browser';

if (import.meta.env.DEV) {
  const params = new URLSearchParams(window.location.search);
  const sessionId = params.get('session') || 'debug';
  const port = params.get('port') || '4000';

  const bridge = createDebugBridge({
    url: `ws://localhost:${port}/debug?role=app&sessionId=${sessionId}`,
    sessionId,
    appName: 'My App',
  });

  bridge.connect();
}

Import it in your app entry point:

// main.tsx
import './debug-bridge';

3. Start debugging

# Terminal 1: Start the debug server
debug-bridge connect --session myapp

# Terminal 2: Start your app
npm run dev

# Terminal 3: Open browser with debug params
open "http://localhost:5173?session=myapp&port=4000"

4. Use CLI commands

debug> ui                    # Get UI tree (interactive elements)
debug> find login            # Search for elements matching "login"
debug> click button-abc123   # Click element by stableId
debug> type input-xyz "hello" # Type text into input
debug> screenshot            # Capture viewport
debug> state                 # Get app state (cookies, localStorage, etc.)
debug> eval document.title   # Execute JavaScript
debug> help                  # Show all commands

                                       └─────────────────┘

1. Browser SDK connects to the Debug Bridge server via WebSocket
2. Server routes messages between your app and the CLI/agent
3. CLI/Agent sends commands (click, type, screenshot) and receives telemetry

Browser SDK Configuration

const bridge = createDebugBridge({
  // Required
  url: 'ws://localhost:4000/debug?role=app&sessionId=myapp',
  sessionId: 'myapp',

  // Optional
  appName: 'My App',
  appVersion: '1.0.0',
  enableEval: false,              // Enable JavaScript execution (security risk)
  enableDomSnapshot: true,        // Send DOM snapshots
  enableDomMutations: true,       // Track DOM changes
  enableUiTree: true,             // Build interactive element tree
  enableConsole: true,            // Forward console logs
  enableErrors: true,             // Forward errors

  // Custom state provider (for auth, cart, etc.)
  getCustomState: () => ({
    user: { id: '123', name: 'John' },
    cart: { items: 3 },
  }),

  // Custom stable ID generator for elements
  getStableId: (el) => el.getAttribute('data-testid'),

  // Callbacks
  onConnect: () => console.log('Connected'),
  onDisconnect: () => console.log('Disconnected'),
  onError: (err) => console.error(err),
});
