+- Title: Ltac2 Debugger Support
+
+- Driver: Jim Fehrle
+
+Identifies requirements for supporting Ltac2 debugging and outlines the associated
+changes at a high level.
+
+# Requirements
+
+Ltac2 debugging should support all the features currently supported for Ltac debugging.
+
+In addition, we should provide the ability to debug tactics that combine Ltac2
+with Ltac.  That’s likely to be a very common use case for Ltac2 for the
+foreseeable future:
+
+- The vast majority of packages (all?) are currently written using only Ltac.
+  Ltac2 users are likely to use these. Those users should be able to debug
+  problems and observe how tactics are processed. Conversion from Ltac to Ltac2
+  will happen slowly--and for some packages, never.
+
+- Anyone converting a package from Ltac to Ltac2 is likely to proceed
+  piecemeal, converting a small number of Ltac tactics at a time. Having the
+  debugger handle combined Ltac/Ltac2 tactics will likely be very helpful to them
+  in this process. Also, the conversions may be buggy for some time, so it would
+  be good to have debugger support.
+
+@JasonGross and @MSoegtropIMC agree that supporting debugging of combined
+tactics is very useful.  (See [here](https://github.com/coq/coq/pull/15737#issuecomment-1062413445) and
+[here](https://github.com/coq/coq/pull/15737#issuecomment-1062639786).)
+
+# Protocol
+
+Debugging Ltac2 code requires XML API support for the same operations used to
+debug Ltac tactics:
+- get the current goals
+- set/clear/stop at breakpoints, step, etc.
+- get the call stack
+- get the variables defined in a specified stack frame
+
+These will be supported through the existing XML calls used for Ltac debugging.
+The changes will be in server code.  CoqIDE and other IDEs will not need to
+distinguish between Ltac and Ltac2 debugging.  No changes to CoqIDE are expected.
+
+Since Coq is single threaded, the Ltac debugger calls a read loop
+`Tactic_debug.Comm.read` when the stopping point is in the Ltac interpreter.
+The Ltac2 interpreter must similarly call the read loop when the stopping point
+is in the Ltac2 interpreter.  Perhaps the read loop code can be fully or mostly
+shared between the two.  In addition, some of the code supporting the XML APIs
+will be shared between Ltac and Ltac2 debugger code, which can be done below
+the existing DebugHook interface.  For example:
+- Breakpoint setting – CoqIDE doesn’t know whether the user is setting a
+  breakpoint in an Ltac or Ltac2 tactic.  The existing set/clear breakpoint code
+  will be enhanced to make breakpoints available in both environments.
+- Getting the call stack – Combined Ltac/Ltac2 tactics will show a single
+  stack that combines both Ltac and Ltac2 calls.  This necessarily means
+  combining information from both the Ltac and Ltac2 interpreters.  The next
+  section discusses how to handle this without overly coupling the internals of
+  the two interpreters.
+- Getting the variables for a stack frame – Clearly requires combining
+  information from both interpreters.
+
+Fetching the current goal may not require communication between Ltac and Ltac2.
+Stepping in/out/over code and continue operations may also be independent.
+
+# Getting the Call Stack
+
+Ltac and Ltac2 currently maintain separate stacks in different formats.  We
+shouldn’t try to force them to use a common format.  Instead, Coq will maintain
+information sufficient to recreate a unified stack from the separate stacks.
+This could be done in various ways.  For example, have each Ltac* interpreter,
+when entered, create a marker stack frame that indicates whether it was invoked
+from the other interpreter.  The Ltac* interpreters then ignore these frames.
+The API to get the call stack will use this information (and knowledge of which
+interpreter the debugger is stopped in) to stitch together a combined stack for
+user display.  For example:
+
+```
+Ltac2 stack:		Ltac stack:
+Tactic1			Ltac_tactic3
+Tactic2			Marker: from Ltac2
+Marker: from Ltac1	Ltac_tactic4
+```
+
+When stopped in the Ltac interpreter, the stack returned to CoqIDE and shown to
+the user is:
+
+```
+Ltac_tactic3
+Tactic1
+Tactic2
+Ltac_tactic4
+```
