Error detection
Pybes scans the output for these keywords to detect errors automatically:
| Keyword | Source |
|---|---|
[stderr] | Error output |
[error] | Error log |
Traceback | Python exception traceback |
[Syntax Error] | Syntax check |
Header buttons
| Button | Icon | When shown | What it does |
|---|---|---|---|
| Consult | Wrench | After completion, with output | Copies a debug prompt to the clipboard. Red when an error was detected, grey otherwise |
| Copy | Copy | With output | Copies the full output text |
| Run log | History | Editor page | Opens the run log viewer (last 50 runs) |
What’s in the Consult prompt: error details, console output, the script code, and the input values — paste it into an AI chat to get debugging help.
Privacy (masking)
Clicking Consult opens a privacy warning dialog. The copied content (file paths, output, code) is meant to be pasted into an external AI service, so it may include personal information.
| Option | What it does |
|---|---|
| Copy masked (recommended) | Automatically replaces your OS username, password-field values, and file paths containing the username with *** |
| Copy as-is | Copies the raw content without masking |
You can change when this dialog appears in settings. Three modes are available: ask every time, always mask, or always copy as-is.
