Chrome Debug FAQs

Question 1

Can Claude monitor JavaScript console errors in real-time?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Using the console-tail command, Claude can monitor the browser's console for errors, warnings, and logs as they occur. This is ideal for catching intermittent bugs or investigating issues that happen during specific user interactions.

Question 2

What is the Chrome Debug skill for Claude Code?

Accepted Answer

The Chrome Debug skill is a specialized capability that allows Claude to control a Chrome browser via the DevTools Protocol (CDP). It enables Claude to perform advanced tasks like monitoring console output, capturing screenshots, and evaluating JavaScript directly from the terminal during a development session.

Question 3

When should I use Headful vs. Headless mode?

Accepted Answer

Use Headful mode (the default) for collaborative debugging where you want to see the browser window and interact alongside Claude. Use Headless mode for background automation, such as automated screenshot capture or console monitoring, where a visible UI is not required.

Question 4

How does this skill help with visual debugging?

Accepted Answer

Claude can capture both full-page and viewport screenshots to identify CSS layout issues, rendering bugs, or UI inconsistencies. This provides Claude with visual context that complements its ability to inspect the DOM and runtime JavaScript state.

Question 5

Is Chrome Debug used for general web browsing?

Accepted Answer

No. Chrome Debug is optimized for runtime inspection and debugging of applications. For general information gathering or reading documentation from the web, the WebFetch skill is the recommended tool.
