TraceBug.init({ projectId: "my-app" });
Why developers choose TraceBug over Jam
✓AI-agent ready — a local MCP server hands the report to Claude Code, Cursor, or Windsurf to fix; Jam is built for a human dashboard
✓Every report embeds a generated failing test the agent runs to verify the fix
✓Local-first, zero backend — the report is one self-contained .html file, nothing is uploaded
✓Free and open source (MIT) — Jam is a paid cloud product
✓Works offline — open the report file with no network, no login
✓Secrets auto-masked at capture (JWTs, API keys) before they ever enter the file
When Jam might be a better fit
•Jam has a hosted team dashboard with shared links out of the box
•Jam offers cloud storage and cross-device history
•Jam's onboarding needs no local MCP setup for the AI step
