Seer is a graphical frontend for GDB that provides a visual interface for inspecting variables, managing breakpoints, and stepping through code. It functions as a low-level debugger visualizer with specialized tools for call stack inspection and register visualization.
The project distinguishes itself by integrating low-level program analysis directly into the visual experience, featuring a synchronized assembly overlay that maps CPU registers and assembly instructions to source code lines. It also includes memory bug detection capabilities by randomizing the program starting address during the debugging process and maintains a value history log to track variable snapshots across execution steps.
The tool covers broad debugging capabilities including stack frame navigation, real-time variable monitoring, and the management of conditional breakpoints, watchpoints, and catchpoints. It supports session initialization and parameter configuration via command-line arguments.
