Reverse Stack-Trace Lookup

Paste a production stack trace and jump to real source — through sourcemaps and, when a build id is present, as of the matching git commit.

Install

git clone https://github.com/bobrowsse-tech/stack-trace-resolver.git
cd stack-trace-resolver
npm install
npm run package
npx @vscode/vsce package --no-dependencies
code --install-extension stack-trace-resolver-0.1.0.vsix

Or press F5 after npm install.

Use

Action What it does
Paste Trace V8/JS, Python, or Java formats
Resolve Sourcemap resolution for JS; direct for Python/Java; explicit unresolved when no map
Jump to Commit Opens the frame at the embedded SHA when that commit exists locally

Missing sourcemaps and missing commits are labeled clearly — never a silent wrong guess.

Agents can call resolve_stack_trace (report-only).

How it’s built

stacktrace-parser + @jridgewell/trace-mapping + simple-git; TypeScript + esbuild CJS bundle.

npm run watch
npm run test:unit
npm run package
