Tracy Markdown: Convert error into markdown to make it easier to use with AI coding agents

sotech

Hello everyone,

I’d like to share a small extension I’ve been working on for Tracy, part of the Nette Framework ecosystem:

What does it do?

This extension allows HTML rendered by Tracy (for example error pages or panels) to be converted back into Markdown and copied to the clipboard.

The main goal is to make it easy to take a Tracy error output and reuse it elsewhere — for example by pasting it into an LLM (AI) model that can help analyze or fix the issue.

Why Markdown?

Markdown provides:

a clean, readable, and structured format
minimal noise compared to raw HTML
better compatibility with LLMs and other text-based tools

Use cases

Sharing Tracy errors with AI tools for debugging assistance
Copying error output into issues, documentation, or discussions
Keeping a portable, text-based representation of Tracy output

Feedback welcome

I’d really appreciate any feedback — whether it’s about the approach, UX, edge cases, or ideas for improvement.
If you see ways this could be done more in line with Tracy or Nette conventions, I’d love to hear your thoughts.

Thanks to the Tracy and Nette contributors — Tracy is an amazing tool to build on.
