A SQL Debugger Built from Spare Parts: Turning a SQL:1999 Database System into Its Own Debugger

Summary: Habitat turns any SQL:1999 RDBMS into its own debugger by instrumenting queries with SQL facilities alone. It supports recursive SQL and pre/post-aggregation row-group observations, produced inside the host DB without exposing engine internals, enabling orthogonal in-database debugging.
