Every developer knows the frustration of cryptic error messages and endless trial-and-error debugging. That’s why I built Bug Whisper during the Code with Kiro Hackathon.

What is Bug Whisper?

Bug Whisper is an AI-powered debugging assistant that works inside your workflow. It doesn’t just fix bugs — it explains them in simple language so you can learn as you debug.

🔑 Features

🐞 Real-time error detection

📖 Human-friendly explanations

🔧 Auto-suggested fixes

🎓 Educational insights for beginners

⚡ Built with Kiro’s spec-to-code + agent hooks for automation

💡 Why Kiro?

Kiro’s spec-driven approach and agent hooks made it possible to automate repetitive debugging steps and focus on crafting smarter explanations. Instead of patching errors blindly, I was able to structure clear specs and let Kiro generate robust code and workflows.

🛠 Challenges & Learnings

Struggled with setting up deployment (permissions issues on Vercel 😅)

Learned how Kiro specs keep debugging organized and scalable

Gained insights into making AI explanations beginner-friendly

🌍 The Future

Bug Whisper isn’t just a tool — it’s the beginning of a learning-driven debugging ecosystem. I envision it evolving into a plugin for popular IDEs, helping developers of all levels write cleaner, bug-free code faster.
