Just make a programming themed chatterbot,drop some ads (If you are so inclined), and you are golden! Someone posted a plugin for IntelliJ that allows you to do just that. I would use a web based one of it existed.

I have occasionally used eliza for this (the basic chatbot in emacs and elsewhere). I'm sure with a bit of tuning you could make a debugging-centred variant of it.

Have you tried running a debugger and stepping through the code?

Hmm, go on.

Wait a sec, can you reexplain that last bit?
