What This Does
It works on your machine. Except when it doesn’t. Sometimes. Under conditions you can’t reproduce.
Fresh eyes help. AI is the freshest eyes you can get.
DatBot’s Coding folder includes debugging prompts:
- Debugging Assistant - find and fix bugs
- Code Explainer - understand what went wrong
- Code Review - prevent future bugs
The bug is always obvious in hindsight. Let’s get to hindsight faster.

Use Cases
Stack trace interpretation. Paste the error, get an explanation of what went wrong and where to look.
Intermittent bugs. Race conditions, timing issues, memory problems. Get a systematic investigation plan.
Production issues. Fast path to mitigation. What to check first, what to communicate, how to investigate.
Async nightmares. Promise chains, callbacks, event loops. Untangle the timing.
“Works on my machine.” Environment differences, config issues, dependency conflicts. Systematic ruling-out.
