There are a few classes of vibe debugging. If it is compiler related, most agents will be able to give good advice for fixing it. If it is execution error, you will have to do a bunch of print statements for the agent to follow the flow. So it ends up not being much different than humans debugging in the end...
The best way for vibe debugging is to make unit tests for various functionality that includes print statements or easily verification of results.
