What it does

Tracealyzer is an agent skill from dariushoule/x64dbg-skills. Trace execution (into or over calls) for N steps or until a condition, then analyze the recorded instruction log

Its SKILL.md is about 1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It works with Model Context Protocol. The repository describes itself as: Claude Code plugin providing skills for x64dbg debugger automation. The licence is MIT.

Example prompts

  • “/tracealyzer”

Requirements

  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): mcp__x64dbg__get_debugger_status, mcp__x64dbg__pause, mcp__x64dbg__trace_into, mcp__x64dbg__trace_over, mcp__x64dbg__eval_expression, mcp__x64dbg__get_symbol, mcp__x64dbg__disassemble, mcp__x64dbg__get_all_registers, mcp__x64dbg__set_comment, mcp__x64dbg__set_label, Read, Bash

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Verify debugger connection
  2. Gather trace parameters
  3. Capture starting context
  4. Run the trace
  5. Read and analyze the trace log
  6. Follow-up actions

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 0409f53. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • mcp__x64dbg__get_debugger_status
    • mcp__x64dbg__pause
    • mcp__x64dbg__trace_into
    • mcp__x64dbg__trace_over
    • mcp__x64dbg__eval_expression
    • mcp__x64dbg__get_symbol
    • mcp__x64dbg__disassemble
    • mcp__x64dbg__get_all_registers
    • mcp__x64dbg__set_comment
    • mcp__x64dbg__set_label

    …and 2 more on the same allowed-tools line.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Tracealyzer loads about 1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 31 tokens; SKILL.md has 484 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~31
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

tracealyzer

Trace debuggee execution — stepping into or over calls — for a specified number of instructions or until a condition is met. The full instruction log is captured to a file and then analyzed.

Instructions

Follow these steps exactly:

1. Verify debugger connection

Call mcp__x64dbg__get_debugger_status to confirm the debugger is connected and a debuggee is loaded and paused. If it is running, call mcp__x64dbg__pause. If no debuggee is loaded, tell the user and stop.

2. Gather trace parameters

Ask the user for the following if not already provided:

  • Trace mode: trace into calls or trace over calls (default: over)
  • Stop condition — one of:
    • A maximum number of instructions (e.g. 1000)
    • An x64dbg expression that stops when true (e.g. cip == 0x7FF6A0001000, rax != 0)
    • Both (whichever triggers first)

If the user provides a symbol or address for the stop condition, resolve it with mcp__x64dbg__eval_expression and build the break_condition expression (e.g. cip == <resolved_addr>).

When the user only specifies a step count N and no explicit break condition, use break_condition 0 (never true — the trace runs until max_steps is hit).

3. Capture starting context

Call mcp__x64dbg__get_all_registers and mcp__x64dbg__disassemble at the current instruction pointer to record the starting state. Note the starting address.

4. Run the trace

Prepare the output log path: ./traces/trace_<timestamp>.log (create the traces directory if it doesn't exist via Bash).

Call the appropriate trace tool (mcp__x64dbg__trace_into or mcp__x64dbg__trace_over) with:

ParameterValue
break_conditionThe user's condition, or 0 if only a step count was given
max_stepsThe user's step count, or 50000 if only a condition was given
log_text`{p:cip} {i:cip}
log_fileThe output log path from above
wait_timeoutScale with max_steps — use max(60, max_steps // 500) seconds

5. Read and analyze the trace log

Read the trace log file. The log contains one line per executed instruction in the format:

<address> <disassembly> | Label=<label> Comment=<comment>

Ignore when Labels or Comments say [Formatting Error], it just means there is no label or comment at that instruction.

Analyze the trace and present a summary to the user:

  • Trace overview: total instructions executed, start address → end address, trace mode used
  • Execution flow: describe the high-level behavior — what the code did, which functions were called, loops observed, and notable control-flow patterns
  • Hot spots: addresses or regions that appear most frequently (loops, repeated calls)
  • Key observations: interesting register manipulations, memory accesses, syscalls, API calls, string operations, or anything else that stands out

Use mcp__x64dbg__get_symbol to resolve notable addresses to symbol names where possible.

If the trace log is very large (>2000 lines), read it in chunks and summarize progressively.

6. Follow-up actions

After presenting the summary, ask the user if they would like any follow-up actions such as:

  • Annotate: add comments/labels in x64dbg at key addresses using mcp__x64dbg__set_comment / mcp__x64dbg__set_label
  • Deeper analysis: re-trace a specific sub-region, or focus on a particular function
  • Deobfuscation: identify and explain obfuscated patterns found in the trace
  • Export: the trace log is already saved to disk at the path from step 4

With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add dariushoule/x64dbg-skills --skill tracealyzer -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/tracealyzer, .gemini/skills/tracealyzer, .github/skills/tracealyzer and .opencode/skills/tracealyzer in your project.

What does Tracealyzer need to run?

SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Tracealyzer is instructions for the agent only. Its frontmatter pre-approves these tools: mcp__x64dbg__get_debugger_status, mcp__x64dbg__pause, mcp__x64dbg__trace_into, mcp__x64dbg__trace_over, mcp__x64dbg__eval_expression, mcp__x64dbg__get_symbol, mcp__x64dbg__disassemble, mcp__x64dbg__get_all_registers, mcp__x64dbg__set_comment, mcp__x64dbg__set_label, Read, Bash.

Does Tracealyzer access the network?

SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.

Is Tracealyzer safe to install?

Our automated static check of SKILL.md found notes only (pre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: bash)), nothing it rates as a warning. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.

What licence does Tracealyzer use?

Tracealyzer is published under the MIT licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.

How many tokens does Tracealyzer use?

About 1k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 4.1k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
