Get the tab ID once, then pass `--tab ` every time. +- **Clicks are real.** A click on Save, Send, Buy or Delete does exactly that, as the user. Reproducing a bug on + their page is fine when they asked for it, but say so when a step submits, sends, pays for or deletes something + they did not explicitly ask for, and ask first when it cannot be undone. +- **Clean up.** Attaching the debugger shows Chrome's "started debugging this browser" infobar on that tab.

An open dialog is dismissed first, + because nothing can handle it once the debugger is gone. Succeeds even when the tab is not attached. +- **`PAGE_UNRESPONSIVE`** means the page did not answer within 5 seconds while attaching, usually because of a + dialog left behind earlier. `page reload` or `page goto` recovers the tab. + +## Debugging: `sctl debug` + +While the debugger is attached, the daemon keeps the tab's console records and network requests in memory: at most +1000 console records and 1000 requests per tab, dropped when the debugger detaches. Network requests are recorded +only from the moment of attaching; console messages of the current document are replayed by Chrome at attach time. +Debug commands keep working while a JS dialog is open. + +A debug command on a tab that is not attached attaches it, which shows the infobar; `debug status` and +`debug stop` never attach. + +| Command | Notes | +|---|---| +| `debug start` | Start recording: the debugger stays attached past the 5-minute idle detach, until `debug stop` or 60 minutes without any debug command.
