# Kling AI Debug Bundle

## Overview

Structured logging, request tracing, and diagnostic tools for Kling AI API integrations. Captures request/response pairs, task lifecycle events, and timing metrics for every call to `https://api.klingai.com/v1`.

## Debug-Enabled Client

```python
import jwt, time, os, requests, logging, json
from datetime import datetime

logging.basicConfig(
    level=logging.DEBUG,
    format="%(asctime)s [%(levelname)s] %(name)s: %(message)s"
)
logger = logging.getLogger("kling.debug")

class KlingDebugClient:
    """Kling AI client with full request/response logging."""

    BASE = "https://api.klingai.com/v1"

    def __init__(self):
        self.ak = os.environ["KLING_ACCESS_KEY"]
        self.sk = os.environ["KLING_SECRET_KEY"]
        self._request_log = []

    def _get_headers(self):
        token = jwt.encode(
            {"iss": self.ak, "exp": int(time.time()) + 1800, "nbf": int(time.time()) - 5},
            self.sk, algorithm="HS256", headers={"alg": "HS256", "typ": "JWT"}
        )
        return {"Authorization": f"Bearer {token}", "Content-Type": "application/json"}

    def _traced_request(self, method, path, body=None):
        """Execute request with full tracing."""
        url = f"{self.BASE}{path}"
        start = time.monotonic()

            "timestamp": datetime.utcnow().isoformat(),

            else:
                r = requests.get(url, headers=self._get_headers(), timeout=30)

            trace["status_code"] = r.status_code

            if r.status_code >= 400:
                logger.error(f"API error: {r.status_code} -- {r.text[:300]}")

            r.raise_for_status()
            return r.json()

        except Exception as e:
            trace["error"] = str(e)
            trace["duration_ms"] = round((time.monotonic() - start) * 1000)
            logger.exception(f"Request failed: {path}")
            raise
        finally:
            self._request_log.append(trace)

        }
        result = self._traced_request("POST", "/videos/text2video", body)

                logger.error(f"Task {task_id} failed after {elapsed}s: {msg}")
                raise RuntimeError(msg)

        raise TimeoutError(f"Task {task_id} timed out after {max_attempts * 10}s")

    def dump_log(self, filepath="kling_debug.json"):
        with open(filepath, "w") as f:
            json.dump(self._request_log, f, indent=2, default=str)
        logger.info(f"Debug log written to {filepath} ({len(self._request_log)} entries)")
```

## Usage

```python
client = KlingDebugClient()
try:
    result = client.text_to_video("A cat surfing ocean waves at sunset")
    print(f"Video: {result['videos'][0]['url']}")
except Exception:
    pass
finally:
    client.dump_log()  # always save debug log
```

## Structured Log Entry Format

```json
{
  "timestamp": "2026-03-22T10:30:00.000Z",
  "method": "POST",
  "path": "/videos/text2video",
  "request_body": {"model_name": "kling-v2-master", "prompt": "..."},
  "status_code": 200,
  "response_body": {"code": 0, "data": {"task_id": "abc123"}},
  "duration_ms": 342
}
```

## Quick Diagnostic Script

```bash
#!/bin/bash
# kling-diag.sh
echo "=== Kling AI Diagnostics ==="
echo "KLING_ACCESS_KEY: ${KLING_ACCESS_KEY:+set (${#KLING_ACCESS_KEY} chars)}"
echo "KLING_SECRET_KEY: ${KLING_SECRET_KEY:+set (${#KLING_SECRET_KEY} chars)}"

python3 -c "
import jwt, time, os, requests
ak = os.environ.get('KLING_ACCESS_KEY', '')
sk = os.environ.get('KLING_SECRET_KEY', '')
if not ak or not sk: print('ERROR: Missing credentials'); exit(1)
token = jwt.encode({'iss': ak, 'exp': int(time.time())+1800, 'nbf': int(time.time())-5},
                   sk, algorithm='HS256', headers={'alg':'HS256','typ':'JWT'})
r = requests.get('https://api.klingai.com/v1/videos/text2video',
                  headers={'Authorization': f'Bearer {token}'}, timeout=10)
print(f'Auth test: HTTP {r.status_code}')
if r.status_code == 401: print('Fix: Check AK/SK values')
elif r.status_code in (200, 400): print('Auth OK')
"
```

## Task Inspector

```python
def inspect_task(client, endpoint, task_id):
    """Print detailed task information."""
    result = client._traced_request("GET", f"{endpoint}/{task_id}")
    data = result["data"]
    print(f"Task ID:     {data['task_id']}")
    print(f"Status:      {data['task_status']}")
    print(f"Created:     {data.get('created_at', 'N/A')}")
    if data["task_status"] == "succeed":
        for i, video in enumerate(data["task_result"]["videos"]):
            print(f"Video [{i}]:   {video['url']}")
    elif data["task_status"] == "failed":
        print(f"Error:       {data.get('task_status_msg', 'No message')}")
```
