Tool Inspector

Sometimes you need to see exactly what a tool call did — the precise edit, the exact bash command, the search pattern. The tool inspector renders each tool type with specialized formatting (diffs for edits, syntax-highlighted commands for bash, etc.) instead of raw JSON.

Full editor tab with specialized rendering per tool type for detailed inspection of tool calls.

Usage

Run "Sidekick: Open Tool Inspector" from the Command Palette.
