debugview
Sysinternals DebugView CLI (DbgViewCli) for capturing and analyzing usermode and kernel-mode Windows debug output from the command line. USE FOR: capturing OutputDebugString output, kernel DbgPrint/KdPrint capture, boot-time debug logging, remote debug monitoring, filtering debug output by PID or process name, crash dump analysis, automated debug capture with bounded execution. DO NOT USE FOR: non-Windows platforms, application-level logging frameworks (log4j, serilog), Azure Monitor or cloud telemetry, ETW tracing (use WPR/xperf instead), user-mode crash dumps (use WinDbg).
npx skills add microsoft/skills --skill debugview --agent copilot
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for claude-code, codex, cursor.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Sysinternals DebugView CLI (DbgViewCli) Command-line interface for capturing real-time debug output from Windows applications (OutputDebugString) and kernel-mode drivers (DbgPrint/KdPrint). Designed for scripted, automated, and AI-agent-driven debug capture workflows. ## Installation DbgViewCli is a standalone native Windows executable (statically linked, no dependencies). Place `dbgviewcli.exe`

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add microsoft/skills --skill debugview --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From microsoft/skills, a repository with 2,860 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
