Work a stack trace, exception, or error report from dekko's map instead of reading each frame's file. Trigger when given a traceback, an exception type or message, a failing test's error, or a question like "why does X raise", "who handles this error", "how does control get from A to B", or "where is this env var read", in a repo with a `.dekko/` directory. dekko has the raise sites, catch clauses, call paths and getenv reads indexed; the trace names the frames, the map explains them.

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 with dekko (frames first, files last)

A traceback already names the symbols. Opening each frame's file to
see what it does, what it raises, and who called it re-derives what
the map holds. Ask the map, then read only the lines you'll change.
Tool names below are the bare MCP names (`dekko-orient` has the
prefixes and target syntax); the `throws`/`catches`/`trace`/`env`
queries are CLI only.

## Question → tool

| Question | Use |
|---|---|
| What is this frame, and does it carry a note? | `query_symbol file.py:func` (line-qualify with `:LINE` when the reply says it's an overload set) |
| What does the raising function actually do here? | `get_context_pack` with `with_source=true`, budget ~800; a whole-file Read is the last resort |
| Where can this exception come from? | `dekko query throws <sym>`: the function's own raise sites, each `repo-defined` or `external`; `--transitive --depth N` walks callees |
| Who catches it, or should have? | `dekko query catches <ExcType>`: exact type-name matches plus catch-alls |

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add aahlijia/dekko/dekko-debug@sha256:913788cb07170fc8

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260927.bab3b36, 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.
