+##  Automation Debugging Script
+
+### Context
+
+The debugging script is a tool within ChainCLI designed to facilitate the debugging of upkeeps in Automation v21, covering both conditional and log-based scenarios.
+
+### Setup
+
+Before starting, you will need:
+1. Git clone this chainlink [repo](https://github.com/smartcontractkit/chainlink)
+2. A working [Go](https://go.dev/doc/install) installation
+2. Change directory to `core/scripts/chaincli` and create a `.env` file based on the example `.env.debugging.example`
+
+### Configuration in `.env` File
+
+#### Mandatory Fields
+
+Ensure the following fields are provided in your `.env` file:
+
+- `NODE_URL`: Archival node URL
+- `KEEPER_REGISTRY_ADDRESS`: Address of the Keeper Registry contract. Refer to the [Supported Networks](https://docs.chain.link/chainlink-automation/overview/supported-networks#configurations) doc for addresses.
+
+#### Optional Fields (Streams Lookup)
+
+If your targeted upkeep involves streams lookup, include the following information:
+
+- `DATA_STREAMS_ID`
+- `DATA_STREAMS_KEY`
+- `DATA_STREAMS_LEGACY_URL`
+- `DATA_STREAMS_URL`
+
+#### Optional Fields (Tenderly Integration)
+
+For detailed transaction simulation logs, set up Tenderly credentials. Refer to the [Tenderly Documentation](https://docs.tenderly.co/other/platform-access/how-to-generate-api-access-tokens) for creating an API key, account name, and project name.
+
+- `TENDERLY_KEY`
+- `TENDERLY_ACCOUNT_NAME`
+- `TENDERLY_PROJECT_NAME`
+
+### Usage
+
+Execute the following command based on your upkeep type:
+
+- For conditional upkeep:
+
+    ```bash
+    go run main.go keeper debug UPKEEP_ID
+    ```
+
+- For log trigger upkeep:
+
+    ```bash
+    go run main.go keeper debug UPKEEP_ID TX_HASH LOG_INDEX
+    ```
+
+### Checks Performed by the Debugging Script
+
+1. **Fetch and Sanity Check Upkeep:**
+    - Verify upkeep status: active, paused, or canceled
+    - Check upkeep balance
+
+2. **For Conditional Upkeep:**
+    - Check conditional upkeep
+    - Simulate `performUpkeep`
+
+3. **For Log Trigger Upkeep:**
+    - Check if the upkeep has already run for log-trigger-based upkeep
+    - Verify if log matches trigger configuration
+    - Check upkeep
+    - If check result indicates a streams lookup is required (TargetCheckReverted):
+        - Verify if the upkeep is allowed to use Mercury
+        - Execute Mercury request
+        - Execute check callback
+
+    - Simulate `performUpkeep`
+
+### Examples
+- Eligible and log trigger based and using mercury lookup v0.3:
+
+    ```bash
+    go run main.go keeper debug 5591498142036749453487419299781783197030971023186134955311257372668222176389 0xdc6d0e547a5aa85fefa5b0f3a37e3493eafb5aeba8b5f3071ce53c9e9a539e9c 0
+    ```
+
+- Ineligible and conditional upkeep:
+
+    ```bash
+    go run main.go keeper debug 52635131310730056105456985154251306793887717546629785340977553840883117540096
+    ```
+
+- Ineligible and Log does not match trigger config:
+
+    ```bash
+    go run main.go keeper debug 5591498142036749453487419299781783197030971023186134955311257372668222176389 0xc0686ae85d2a7a976ef46df6c613517b9fd46f23340ac583be4e44f5c8b7a186 1
