# DilawarShafiq/nietzschian-debugger

> A CLI debugging tool that asks confrontational, guiding questions instead of giving answers, forcing developers to find the root cause themselves. It runs via the Anthropic API and reads your actual code files.

## Useful for

- Run a debugging session by answering questions and reaching the root cause yourself
- Pick the socrates, nietzsche, or zarathustra intensity level for your experience
- Track debugging skill growth via the Growth Score and session history in .nietzschian/sessions/

## Why it’s here

- Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-26 (UTC), 18:33–21:44: 17 → 98 stars (+81). This is the change over that interval.
- Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +88 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
- Before this, the repository barely got any stars — about 0 per day.
- Hacker News: “Nietzschian Debugger” — 102 points, 4 h ago.

## Star trust

Star growth looks organic.

Star-trust labels are heuristics based on the repository’s behavior, not a check of every stargazer.

## Numbers

- Forks: 2
- Issues and pull requests: 2
- Watchers: 0
- Average over the last week: 13 per day
- Usual pace: 0 per day
- Stars in the last hour (measured): 33

Magnitude (0–10) measures how fast and how unusually interest in a repository is growing right now. It is not a quality score.
Days are UTC. “So far today” is a fact; “expected by the end of the day” is a forecast.
Summaries and use cases are written by an LLM (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash) from the README and may be inaccurate: verify specific claims (benchmarks, speed, hardware) in the repository itself.
