# Groq Debug Bundle

## Current State

!`node --version 2>/dev/null || echo 'N/A'`
!`python3 --version 2>/dev/null || echo 'N/A'`
!`npm list groq-sdk 2>/dev/null | grep groq-sdk || echo 'groq-sdk not installed'`

## Overview

Collect all diagnostic information needed to resolve Groq API issues. Produces a redacted support bundle (a `.tar.gz`) with environment info, SDK version, connectivity test results, rate limit headers, per-model latency, and redacted application logs — everything a Groq support engineer needs, with secrets masked before the archive is written.

## Prerequisites

- `GROQ_API_KEY` set in environment
- `curl` and `jq` available
- Access to application logs (optional — the log step is skipped if `logs/` is absent)

## Instructions

The bundle is assembled by a six-step shell script. Each step appends to a file inside a timestamped `$BUNDLE_DIR`; the final step tars it and deletes the working copy. Run the steps in order in one shell, or paste the whole sequence into a script.

1. **Environment** — capture OS, Node/Python versions, installed Groq SDK versions, and a masked key fingerprint (length + 4-char prefix only, never the key).
2. **Connectivity** — hit `GET /openai/v1/models` to confirm auth and count available models.
3. **Rate limits** — send a 1-token completion and grab the `x-ratelimit-*`, `retry-after`, and `x-request-id` response headers.
4. **Latency** — time a minimal completion against each model of interest.
5. **Log extraction** — grep recent Groq/429/rate-limit errors from `logs/*.log` and mask any `gsk_` keys and `.env` values.
6. **Package** — `tar -czf` the directory, remove the working copy, and print a review reminder.

The skeleton of Step 1 (the rest is in the full walkthrough):

```bash
#!/bin/bash
set -euo pipefail
BUNDLE_DIR="groq-debug-$(date +%Y%m%d-%H%M%S)"
mkdir -p "$BUNDLE_DIR"
# ... append environment, connectivity, rate-limits, latency, logs ...
```

See **[references/implementation.md](references/implementation.md)** for the complete, copy-pasteable six-step script.

## Output

A single archive named `groq-debug-TIMESTAMP.tar.gz` (where TIMESTAMP is `YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS`) containing:

| File | Purpose | Sensitive? |
|------|---------|-----------|
| `environment.txt` | Node/Python versions, SDK version, key fingerprint | Key prefix only |
| `connectivity.txt` | API reachability, model count | No |
| `rate-limits.txt` | Current rate limit headers | No |
| `latency.txt` | Response times per model | No |
| `app-logs.txt` | Recent error logs (redacted) | Redacted |
| `config-redacted.txt` | Config keys only (values masked) | Redacted |

The TypeScript diagnostic (see Examples) instead prints a JSON report with `auth`, `modelsAvailable`, `completion`, `latencyMs`, `model`, and `usage`.

## Error Handling

- **`GROQ_API_KEY` unset** — `environment.txt` records `NOT SET` and every `curl` step returns `401`; export the key before collecting.
- **`401 Invalid API Key`** — the key is wrong or revoked; the bundle still captures the failure, which is the evidence support needs.
- **`jq: command not found`** — install `jq`, or the connectivity/model-count lines will be empty (the rest of the bundle still builds).
- **No `logs/` directory** — Step 5 is skipped silently; the bundle omits `app-logs.txt` rather than failing.
- **`429` during latency/rate-limit steps** — expected when debugging throttling; the captured `retry-after` and `x-ratelimit-*` headers are the point. For deeper 429 handling see `groq-rate-limits`.

## ALWAYS Redact Before Sharing

- API keys (anything starting with `gsk_`)
- Bearer tokens
- PII (emails, names, IDs)
- Internal hostnames and IPs

## Examples

A quick SDK-based diagnostic that confirms auth, lists models, times a completion, and prints a JSON report:

```typescript
import Groq from "groq-sdk";
const groq = new Groq();
const models = await groq.models.list();  // 401 here = bad key
console.log(models.data.map((m) => m.id));
```

Full TypeScript diagnostic, healthy/bad-key sample outputs, and an end-to-end shell run with the resulting tarball listing are in **[references/examples.md](references/examples.md)**.

## Next Steps

For rate limit and 429 throttling issues, escalate to the `groq-rate-limits` skill, which covers backoff strategy and quota inspection in depth.
