Transaction Debugger

One RPC to debug, simulate, and optimize blockchain transactions—AI-powered and multi-chain ready.

Introduction

Developing on blockchain often means juggling multiple smart contracts, RPX endpoints, fragmented debugging data, and manual gas tuning, slow and error-prone. Transaction Debugger solves this by unifying all your testing and debugging into a single intelligent interface. Whether you're simulating transactions across chains, invoking a debugger for a failed call, or refining gas usage, all powered by AI suggestions.

How It Works

  1. Unified Multi-Chain RPC Interface

    Ignite debugging across Ethereum, Polygon, Arbitrum, Optimism, and more without switching providers.

  2. Simulate, Debug & Visualize

    Preview exactly what happens before your transaction hits the chain. Dive into human-readable state diffs, stack traces, emitted events, revert messages, and asset or balance changes.

  3. AI Recommendations & Optimization

    Beyond visibility: AI analyzes failed transactions, highlights inefficiencies or vulnerabilities, suggests more efficient method calls, or preemptively flags potential error triggers cutting debugging time substantially.

  4. Testing Bundles & Edge Simulation

    Simulate complex flows multiple chained transactions, modified storage states, or impersonated accounts—so you can validate logic without hitting testnet or mainnet.

  5. Gas Profiling & Cost Control

    Get granular reports of gas use per function, uncover bottlenecks, and receive AI suggestions for optimization like parameter refactors or access-list tips.

Tech Notes

  • Simulation Engine: Forks real chain state for safe off-chain simulations, complete with overrides for state, balances, or timestamps.

  • AI Diagnostic Engine: Utilizes pattern recognition (ML models) to interpret revert messages, trace inefficiencies, and suggest remediation—trained on historical debug logs.

  • Visualization UI: Decoded stack traces, gas charts, state deltas, and AI prompts presented in an intuitive dashboard experience.

  • Extensibility: Plugin-friendly architecture add new chains, simulation modes, or AI models as needed.

Status & Conclusion (Upcoming)

Currently in Alpha, Transaction Debugger supports any EVM chains with simulation, debugging, and AI-based diagnostics live. Next steps include expanding chain support, integrating with IDEs, and enabling preemptive “fix suggestion” pipelines. For teams building, testing, or deploying smart contracts, this tool transforms debugging from guesswork to guided precision.
