# DWARF debug format
## Contract
| Field | Bound contract |
|---|---|
| Trigger | DWARF sections in an ELF binary need listing or reading, `.dwo` split files need producing or packaging, debuginfod needs configuring, or LTO and stripping change what debug info survives. |
| Authority | Read-only. Emits analysis and commands for the operator to run on the target; no file writes, no rollback needed. No remote mutation. |
| Side effect | Inspection commands and a verdict in chat. Nothing is written. |
| Done | The debug info question is answered from the binary's own sections, or the missing piece (`.dwo`, debug package, build ID) is named. |
## Inputs
1. Binary or object file (required): the ELF file whose debug info is in question.
