Launch a Studio session from completed (or failed) child task

in progress

In the "About" tab of a completed task, it would be nice to have a link to launch a studio environment using the same image, and with the input data linked/copied into the environment. It would be a convenient way to quickly test different settings on a given step/tool.

Interactive debugging of failed tasks in Studios

Wooden Stork

Leverage Studios capabilities to launch container instances for failed jobs, streamlining debugging within Seqera Platform in reproducible execution environments.

Users can seamlessly debug a failed task interactively within the exact execution environment from the Nextflow workflow.

Doing this was demoed at the Boston 2025 summit. Thank you!

I'm most interested in launching an interactive environment from a failed child task using the task's container with the input data for that task available for debugging purposes.

For debugging purposes, I don't think that launching at the Run level helps as much b/c what you'll likely need is access to intermediate files produced at some point in the run.

Updating to include launching from a

failed

task.

Neon carrot Goldfish Thanks for your feature request. We are currently implementing a "Launch Data Studio" from the Pipeline Run details page at the parent Run-level (which includes the same image with the input data copied into the environment), however this isn't at the child Task-level. Does having this functionality at the Run-level satisfy your request?

Pipeline task debugging via Web Console

Universal Firefly

The forthcoming release of Data Studios introduces technology that facilitates the activation of a web console for efficient Pipeline task debugging. When a user launches this web console, it precisely replicates the software and hardware conditions utilized by the pipeline for executing the task. Additionally, it provides an option to adjust the CPU and memory allocation for the process.

Working Directory bundle download via UI to facilitate rapid debugging

Canny AI

Introduce a shortcut in the pipeline UI to download the full working directory bundle (with all inputs copied in) from failed jobs to help with debugging, so that the jobs can be re-run and debugged locally.

Currently, it takes time to determine the pipeline inputs and outputs and refer to the storage path.
