Explanation

Cloud Debugger offers two modes: snapshots (capture app state at a single moment) and logpoints (inject log statements into a live application without redeployment). Logpoints are the right choice here because they run continuously over an extended period - like 12 hours - generating log output that helps diagnose behavior in application code over time. Snapshots are for one-time point-in-time inspection, not prolonged monitoring. Cloud Trace analyzes request latency, and Cloud Monitoring tracks infrastructure and service-level metrics - neither directly inspects application code logic.
