## What it is
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that bridges AI models with Windows debuggers (CDB and KD) for crash dump analysis, user-mode remote debugging, and kernel debugging. It lets an LLM run real WinDbg commands and reason about the output, enabling natural-language debugging workflows.

## Use cases
- analyze a windows crash dump with ai
- root-cause an access violation from a .dmp file
- attach to a live process and inspect a hang
- debug a kernel bugcheck and identify the faulting driver
- run windbg commands in natural language via copilot chat
- triage many crash dumps across a directory

## When to choose
- you analyze Windows crash dumps or live debug sessions and want LLM assistance
- you use MCP-compatible clients like Copilot Chat or Claude and work with WinDbg/CDB/KD
- you need multi-dump triage or remote/kernel debugging driven by natural language

## When to avoid
- you need crash dump analysis on Linux or macOS
- you want a fully automated fixer rather than an LLM-driven debugger wrapper
- you don't use any MCP-capable AI client
