Code Debugger AI
Free AI-Powered Code Debugging and Review

How It Works

CodeDebugger.ai is a free, AI-powered tool designed to help developers identify bugs and improve their code - instantly. Here's what happens under the hood when you submit your code for analysis:

1. You Submit Your Code

Simply paste your code into the submission form on the home page and click "Start Debugging Now." You can submit most common programming languages, including:
  • PHP
  • JavaScript
  • Python
  • HTML/CSS
  • Java
  • SQL
  • …and more
There’s no need to create an account or provide any personal information.

2. Code Is Sent Securely to the OpenAI API

Your submitted code is securely transmitted to an instance of the OpenAI API (GPT-4 Turbo), where it’s processed using a prompt engineered specifically for code debugging. The prompt includes:
  • Instructions to detect syntax errors, logical issues, security flaws, and inefficient patterns
  • Context to avoid unnecessary filler, jokes, or assistant-like phrasing
  • Guidance to analyze only the provided code, with no assumptions about surrounding files
No personally identifiable information is included in the request. The payload includes only:
  • Your code (as plain text)
  • The language or file type (if detectable)
  • A static system prompt

3. AI Response Is Captured and Parsed

Once OpenAI returns the analysis:
  • The response is parsed for formatting (e.g., Markdown code blocks, explanation text)
  • The result is paired with your original submission
  • A unique shareable URL is generated (e.g., /debug/view/ABC1234)
You can view the result immediately and optionally copy or share the link.

4. Data Is Stored Temporarily (24 Hours)

To respect privacy and minimize data retention:
  • Your code and AI-generated response are stored in memory-limited temporary storage
  • All submissions are automatically deleted after 24 hours
  • We do not use cookies, tracking scripts, or analytics
  • IP addresses and user agents may be logged temporarily for security and rate-limiting purposes

5. Usage Limits & Fail Safes

To ensure fairness and protect the service:
  • Code length limits are enforced (~5,000 tokens)
  • Throttling is applied to prevent abuse or denial-of-service attempts
  • If the AI response is truncated due to length, you’ll be notified and can re-submit a smaller code block

🔒 Privacy by Design

CodeDebugger.ai is built with a privacy-first architecture:
  • No accounts or registration
  • No long-term storage of your code
  • No analytics or fingerprinting
  • Gamma Ape, LLC does not review, train, or retain submitted code for any reason

🛠️ Future Plans

As the service evolves, we plan to expand functionality with:
  • Language-specific linting suggestions
  • Style improvements and refactoring advice
  • Optional login-based saved debugging history
  • Plugin integrations (e.g., browser or IDE extensions)
If you have feature requests, feedback, or spot something the debugger missed, feel free to contact us. We’re building this for developers like you.
