### Example Debugging Interaction with AI

Source: https://github.com/withpointbreak/pointbreak/blob/main/README.md

Illustrates a typical user-AI interaction for debugging. The AI sets a breakpoint, starts the debugger, and identifies a bug based on variable inspection.

```text
User: "Debug this test and tell me why user_input is empty"

AI: Setting breakpoint at line 15... Starting debugger...
    [Breakpoint appears in VS Code]
    [Debug session starts]
    [Code pauses at breakpoint]

    Found it! You're reading user_input before prompting the user.
    The input happens on line 18, but you're using it on line 15.
    Move the prompt above the read.
```

### Example Security Vulnerability Report

Source: https://github.com/withpointbreak/pointbreak/blob/main/SECURITY.md

This is an example of the information to include when reporting a security vulnerability via email. It covers the description, impact, steps to reproduce, affected versions, suggested fix, and contact details.

```text
Subject: Security Vulnerability in Pointbreak

Description:
Pointbreak MCP server accepts unauthenticated connections allowing
arbitrary debug commands from any process on the system.

Impact:
Local attacker could connect to MCP server and control debug sessions,
potentially executing code in the context of the debugged process.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start Pointbreak MCP server
2. From separate process, connect to MCP socket
3. Send arbitrary debug commands
4. Commands execute without authentication

Affected Versions: 0.1.0 - 0.2.5

Suggested Fix:
Add authentication token requirement for MCP connections
