yo-bug 🐛
English · 简体中文
"Yo, bug!" — Point at bugs, AI fixes them.
MCP Server that gives AI coding assistants QA superpowers. One install, then your AI handles the entire test-feedback-fix loop.
In vibe coding, the bottleneck is testing: humans find bugs but struggle to describe them. yo-bug solves this by letting users point, click, or type — while the AI automatically receives element locations, console errors, network failures, action recordings, and annotated screenshots.
What it does
The AI drives the entire workflow through MCP tools. Humans never need to learn commands, configure proxies, or modify their code.
Install
npx yo-bug install
(or npm install -g yo-bug && yo-bug install if you prefer a global install)
This auto-detects your AI tool (Claude Code / Cursor / Windsurf) and writes the MCP config. One time, done forever.
How it works
AI writes code
→ AI calls start_test_session()
→ Reverse proxy starts, injects test SDK into HTML responses
→ Browser opens (zero code changes to your project)
→ AI pushes grouped test cases (8 QA dimensions, multi-step scenarios)
→ Human runs each case; pass/fail at the case level
→ When failing, picks feedback mode: element / screenshot / text
→ AI calls list_feedbacks() + get_feedback() — sees diagnostic data
→ AI must state root cause BEFORE writing fix (enforced by tool response)
→ AI fixes → calls resolve_feedback() → browser shows verify card
→ Human clicks Fixed / Locate (jump to element) / Still broken
→ Loop until done

8 QA Test Dimensions
The create_checklist tool embeds professional QA methodology. AI is guided to cover:
- Happy path — Core functionality works end-to-end
- Empty/boundary — Empty inputs, special chars, max length, zero/negative values
- Error states — Offline, server errors, timeouts, recovery
- Duplicate ops — Double-click, re-submit, concurrent requests
- State recovery — Refresh, back/forward, deep links, tab close/reopen
- Loading/async — Loading states, failed loads, stale data
- Responsive — 375px mobile width, touch targets, overflow
- Interaction detail — Tab order, Enter/Escape, disabled states, focus
Each case is multi-step (open page → fill form → click submit → verify result), so the human marks a whole scenario passed/failed rather than micro-managing each step.
Three Feedback Modes
When a checklist case fails, users pick a mode that fits the bug:
Other shortcuts: Alt+X toggle mode bar, Esc exit anything.
In-Browser Feedback Management
Above the floating bug button you'll see a list icon with a red badge showing open feedback count. Click it to:
- See all open feedback you've submitted this session
- Edit description inline (click description text)
- Delete a feedback (trash icon, confirms first)
- View screenshot thumbnails
When all feedback is resolved, the button auto-hides.
Auto-Captured Context
Every feedback submission automatically includes:
- Console errors — last 50
console.error/console.warnentries with stack traces - Network failures — last 50 failed
fetch/XHRrequests with status, URL, duration - Unhandled exceptions — last 50
window.onerror+unhandledrejectionevents - Action recording — last 100 user actions (click / input / navigate / scroll / keypress) with timestamps
- Element info — CSS selector, tag, text content, bounding rect, computed styles, React/Vue component name (when in element mode)
Verify-Fix Flow
When AI calls resolve_feedback(), a rich verify card appears on the left:
┌─────────────────────────────┐
│ ▼ VERIFY FIX [3] │ ← collapsible header with count
├─────────────────────────────┤
│ [thumbnail*] "Button click │
│ does nothing" │
│ bug · element │
│ 📍 <button> #submit-btn │ ← only when element info exists
│ 🔗 /orders │
│ ⏱ 5 min ago │
│ [🎯 Locate*] [✓] [✗] │
└─────────────────────────────┘
* thumbnail only if a screenshot was attached
* Locate only if an element selector was captured
- 🎯 Locate scrolls to the element + flashes a red pulse twice. If the verify card was submitted on a different URL, it navigates there first. If the element no longer exists on the current page, shows a toast
- ✓ Fixed confirms the fix → status: resolved
- ✗ Still broken sends it back → status: open (AI sees it in next
list_feedbackscall) - Click the header bar to collapse the whole stack when it gets in the way
Theming
- Auto-detects
prefers-color-scheme(light or dark) - All UI uses design tokens, contrast-verified (WCAG AA)
- Glass-morphism panels with backdrop blur; clearly distinct from white host pages
Works Inside Modal Dialogs
If your app opens a <dialog>.showModal() (which traps focus and inerts the rest of the page), yo-bug still works: it detects the open modal via the :modal selector plus a MutationObserver, and relocates the SDK host inside the dialog so focus is shared.
This means you can submit text feedback even when a modal is open — the textarea will accept input normally. When the dialog closes, the host moves back out.
i18n
SDK auto-detects <html lang="...">:
- Any value starting with
zh(zh,zh-CN,zh-Hans, ...) → Chinese interface - Everything else → English interface
MCP tool descriptions are in English (AI translates to the user's language naturally in chat).
Architecture
Browser → Reverse Proxy (localhost:3695+) → Dev Server (localhost:5173)
│
├─ Auto-injects SDK into HTML responses
├─ WebSocket passthrough (HMR works normally)
├─ Feedback API (POST/GET/PATCH/DELETE)
├─ Checklist API (push/poll/update)
└─ Verify API (push/confirm)
MCP Server (stdio) ← AI Tool (Claude Code / Cursor / Windsurf)
│
├─ start/stop_test_session → controls proxy lifecycle
├─ feedback tools → reads user submissions w/ diagnostic protocol
├─ checklist tools → pushes grouped test cases, reads results
└─ history tools → persists test records per module
The proxy auto-detects dev server framework (Vite, Next.js, CRA, Webpack, Nuxt, Angular, Svelte, Astro) and port. If the dev server is already running, it connects. If not, it starts one. On stop_test_session it cleans up — and tells the AI whether the dev server was auto-closed or left running (because the user had started it themselves).
If port 3695 is taken, yo-bug auto-increments to 3696, 3697... up to 3795. Multiple projects can run yo-bug simultaneously without conflict.
Security
- All data stays local — feedback files in
<project>/.yo-bug/feedback/by default (auto-.gitignore'd), or~/.yo-bug/if you opt in - Feedback IDs validated against path traversal
- Input fields whitelist-filtered and length-limited
- Network interceptor uses exact pathname matching (no substring false positives)
- No data sent to any external service
Requirements
- Node.js >= 18
- Any MCP-compatible AI tool
- A current-version browser (Chrome / Edge / Firefox / Safari)
