It allows Python type checkers like mypy and pyright to validate code written for GDB's scripting environment. The stubs are generated from the typeshed project and aim to match GDB version 16.3.*.\n\nThis package is only useful when writing Python scripts that will run under GDB itself\u2014the gdb module cannot be installed separately via pip. If you're developing GDB automation scripts and want static type checking, you install types-gdb in your development environment so your type checker can understand the gdb module's interface.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you write Python scripts for GDB and use a type checker. It has no runtime dependencies, is actively maintained, and carries a permissive license. Install it in your development environment alongside mypy or pyright to catch type errors in GDB automation code before execution."},"id":"types-gdb","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/types-gdb","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/types-gdb.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/types-gdb/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-07-12","license_spdx":"Apache-2.0","license_treatment":"permissive","name":"types-gdb","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Typing stubs for gdb"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":90153,"position":13614,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"16.3.0.20260712"}
