## Debug Export

Debug snapshots are generated to help troubleshoot LLM interactions. By default, debug snapshots are **disabled** in all environments.

### Enabling Debug Export

To enable debug export in **development environment only**, set the `ENABLE_DEBUG_EXPORT` environment variable:

**Docker Compose:**
```yaml
environment:
  - ENABLE_DEBUG_EXPORT=true
```

**Shell/Terminal:**
```bash
export ENABLE_DEBUG_EXPORT=true
```

**`.env` file:**
```
ENABLE_DEBUG_EXPORT=true
```

### Debug Snapshot Location

When enabled, debug snapshots are saved to `debug/chat_debug_<timestamp>.md` with detailed information about:
- Conversation metadata
- LLM configuration
- Input/output messages
- Function call results
- Retrieved context documents

### Production Deployment

For production environments, ensure `ENABLE_DEBUG_EXPORT` is **not set** or set to `false` to prevent unnecessary file generation and potential disk space issues.
