Can I debug Bun test suites with this skill?

Yes, the skill supports a test pattern that allows you to debug your test files with the same inspection tools.

Is VSCode required to use this skill?

No, you can use the web-based debugger at debug.bun.sh, though VSCode is supported for those who prefer an IDE-integrated experience.

What is the benefit of the --brk argument?

The --brk flag tells Bun to pause at the very first line of code, which is essential for debugging scripts that finish executing too quickly to attach a debugger.

How do I access the Bun debugger once launched?

The skill generates a Bun Inspector URL (e.g., debug.bun.sh) that you can open in any browser, or a WebSocket URL for VSCode attachment.

Developer Tools

Launches TypeScript and JavaScript scripts with the Bun inspector for interactive, step-through debugging.

The bun-debug skill streamlines the troubleshooting process for Bun-based applications within Claude Code. It automates the configuration of Bun's built-in inspector, providing options to break on the first line, wait for debugger attachment, or specify custom ports. By generating ready-to-use debug URLs for debug.bun.sh and offering VSCode integration patterns, this skill bridges the gap between AI-driven development and traditional interactive debugging environments.
