PCSX2 AI Debugger FAQs

Question 1

What is the PCSX2 AI Debugger?

Accepted Answer

The PCSX2 AI Debugger enables AI coding assistants (like Antigravity, Claude Desktop) to control and debug the PCSX2 PlayStation 2 emulator through the Model Context Protocol (MCP), providing advanced debugging capabilities.

Question 2

What kind of debugging features does it offer for PCSX2?

Accepted Answer

It provides a comprehensive suite of 30 debugging tools, including memory inspection (read, write, pattern search, diff), MIPS disassembly, full 128-bit register access, advanced breakpoints and watchpoints with conditions, and execution control.

Question 3

Is the full PCSX2 source code included in this repository?

Accepted Answer

No, the repository contains only the source code for our modifications (DebugServer plugin) and the MCP server. For a ready-to-run package with pre-built PCSX2 binaries, you should download the latest GitHub Release.

Question 4

How does the AI assistant connect to PCSX2?

Accepted Answer

The system uses an MCP server (Node.js bridge) to translate AI commands into DebugServer TCP commands (running directly in PCSX2) and Pine IPC for fallback memory operations. This creates a bridge between your AI and the emulator.

Question 5

Can I use it for reverse engineering PlayStation 2 games?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. It's designed for reverse engineering, allowing you to trace execution, inspect memory, analyze MIPS code, find specific values, and integrate with PS2Recomp for function lookup and override analysis, all guided by AI.
