Drives a live multi-turn conversation with a LiveKit agent running locally, using `lk agent debugger`. Use when the user says "test my agent", "try my agent", "does this work", or "why did it call that tool", after editing an agent to check how it behaves, or when an agent on a speech-to-speech model or one that mishears users needs checking. The default for a bare "test"; for regression tests use testing-livekit-agents, for graded runs running-livekit-simulations.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Debugging a LiveKit agent live `lk agent debugger` runs the user's agent locally as a background process and lets you drive a conversation one turn at a time. It's built for coding agents: you play the user, choose each next line based on the last reply, and inspect what the agent did in between. By default the session is text: speech is off and nothing goes to a LiveKit room, so each turn is fast. When the bug lives in the audio path, start the session in audio mode instead (see [Audio mode](#audio-mode)). Before the first use, confirm the command exists and read its help: ```bash lk agent debugger --help ``` The help is thorough and is the source of truth for subcommands and flags, so this skill doesn't restate them. If the command is missing, the installed CLI predates it. Tell the user to update `lk` and use `testing-livekit-agents` until then. Don't guess at an older command's shape. ## The loop **Start** the agent, **say** user turns, **inspect** what happened, edit the code, **restart**, repeat, and **stop** when you're done. Roughly: ```bash lk agent debugger start lk agent debugger say "Hi, what can you do?" …

How to install
mdr add livekit/agent-skills/debugging-livekit-agents@sha256:73eb5136cff95d9fThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261009.8095b29, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
