 "title": "Find the exact step that broke an agent run",
 "page_title": "How to find the exact step that broke an agent run with Orca Replay",
 "summary": "Replay a failed coding agent run offline and see which tool call changed a file or skipped a failing check.",
 "who": "A developer whose coding agent reported success, but the tests still fail or a file was changed wrongly.",
 "problem": "The agent's exit code and its transcript do not show which action caused the damage or whether a check actually failed.",
 "outcome": "A step-by-step timeline and causal graph that shows which tool call changed which file and which check failed, with the replay blocked from calling any model.",
 "steps": [
  "Run `npm i -g orcareplay` to install the package that provides the `orca` command.",
  "Run `orca record claude` and use your agent as normal until the run finishes.",
  "Run `orca show last` to read the ordered timeline of model turns, tool calls, file changes and shell results.",
  "Run `orca graph last` to see which events produced which, and check whether each link is recorded or inferred.",
  "Run `orca replay last` to repeat the run with no network and no tokens spent, and confirm the same result."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "Use the OrcaReplay repo (Continuum-AI-Corp/OrcaReplay) to inspect the most recent failed run on this machine by running `orca show last` and `orca graph last`. Report the sequence number of the tool call that changed <target file> and the sequence number of any shell check that exited non-zero. Verify that `orca replay last` prints the run again with no model called.",

 "difficulty": "Intermediate",
 "time": "30 minutes",
 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "Replay is not a sandbox, and a tool call that opens its own socket, such as a shell command running curl, is outside the no-network guarantee.",

 "lang": "typescript",
 "requirements": [
  "Node.js and npm, to install the orcareplay package",
  "A coding agent installed locally, such as Claude Code or Codex CLI, to record a run",
  "A model API key and network access for recording and for live forked turns",
  "A terminal with permission to install a global npm package"
