MCP tools · 15 exposed · ~1,191 tokens

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →

Tool Tokens
attach ~101

Resolve a target (pid, container, k8s pod, or a command to spawn under capture) and open a session. Returns session_id used by every other tool. Read-only: nothing is modified.

NameTypeReqDescription
kindstring–Defaults to auto-detect: numeric → pid, else container, else command
targetstringyespid, container name/id, k8s pod (ns/name), or a command line (with kind=command)

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

capture_traffic ~117

tcpdump scoped to the target's ports for N seconds (max 30). Per-remote bytes/packets, retransmits, RSTs, DNS queries, TLS SNI. .pcap artifact. REQUIRES consent: true — ask the user first.

NameTypeReqDescription
consentboolean–Required. Packet capture may contain secrets; ask the user first.
duration_sinteger––
filterstring–Extra BPF filter ANDed with the target's ports
session_idstringyes–

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

container_info ~49

docker inspect/stats/top/logs tail for the target container, host pid mapping, cgroup limits: throttled? OOM-killed before? restarts?

NameTypeReqDescription

detach ~39

Stop any running captures for the session, finalize the report, keep artifacts under ~/.debuganything/sessions/<id>/.

session_idstringyes–

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

diff_runs ~116

Diff two prior runs of the same tool in this session (e.g. snapshot_memory#1 vs snapshot_memory#2, profile_cpu#1 vs #2): what grew, appeared, disappeared.

NameTypeReqDescription
astringyesrun id of the earlier result; '<session_id>:<run>' reads a baseline run from another session (e.g. a recorded healthy run)
bstringyesrun id of the later result; '<session_id>:<run>' works here too
session_idstringyes–

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

dump_stacks ~56

Instant snapshot of every thread's stack (py-spy dump / gdb / lldb / Node inspector). The key tool for hangs and deadlocks; flags threads waiting on the same lock.

NameTypeReqDescription

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

import_artifact ~151

Analyze raw tool output you captured yourself (e.g. `sudo strace …`, `sudo fs_usage …`, `perf script`, `py-spy dump`, `lsof -F`, `tcpdump -nn -tt -r`) and turn it into the same evidence and findings Debug Anything would produce. Use when Debug Anything could not run the tool (no root, macOS).

NameTypeReqDescription
duration_sinteger–How long the capture ran, when the file has no timestamps (profiles)
pathstringyesPath to the raw output file you captured yourself (e.g. with sudo)
session_idstringyes–

session_idstringyes–

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

readiness ~66

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

report ~79

Markdown report of the whole session: findings, evidence excerpts, artifact paths. Optionally written to a file.
