This MCP server enables AI assistants to perform comprehensive GDB debugging operations through a structured interface.

Session Management: Start new GDB sessions with custom GDB paths and working directories, list active sessions, and terminate sessions

Program Loading: Load executables with command-line arguments, attach to running processes by PID, and load core dump files for post-mortem analysis

Execution Control: Continue execution, step into/over functions, step by source lines or instructions, and finish executing the current function

Breakpoint Control: Set breakpoints at specific locations (functions, file:line) with optional conditions

Code & State Inspection: View call stacks with optional frame limits and variable display, list source code at current or specified locations with VS Code integration, print variable values and evaluate expressions, examine memory at specific addresses with customizable display formats (hex, instruction, etc.), and display CPU registers

Raw Command Execution: Execute arbitrary GDB commands for advanced debugging scenarios

Allows accessing the MCP GDB server repository for installation and setup.

2. Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state.

3. In the chat, type @ followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@MCP GDB Server set a breakpoint at main and then run the program"

That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
