Sorry. Realized I added very few details. Always-On Debugger is a tool that enhances your terminal experience by automatically detecting errors and providing debugging assistance using AI. It acts as a wrapper around your existing terminal, intercepting commands and their outputs to offer real-time debugging support. It's really simple to use and install: just prefix your terminal command with "debug".

It was our AI devtool hackathon project. Wondering there is more to this idea to improve debugging experience in terminal or that's it!
